    The Best Bear Defense Handguns of 2023

    My Range Officer is a stock .45 gun. I bought the Clark 460 Rowland kit and substituted the parts that came in the kit. I chose the Clark kit because Clark has been making the conversion kits longer than anybody else including Rowland.

    Is Bear Spray Better Than a Pistol?
