There is a lot of talk these days about gun laws and our Constitutional rights. To tell a truth that we all know there has ALWAYS been a lot of talk about our unalienable rights since the Declaration of Independence and beyond and as Alaskans this right rings clear in our ears. Yet it is more than a right or a privilege, it is a necessity when you venture out of suburbia and into the bush of Alaska.
In the Alaska bush there is wild along the rivers, by the lakes and on the tundra that will eat you if you give it a chance. My family and I are not about to give it that chance and we always venture out aware of our surroundings, prepared, and are ready to defend ourselves against an angry bear or disgruntled moose. Also if there were ever a need to hunt to feed ourselves in the case of an emergency if Alaska was to be cut off from outside world I would need to be all practiced up and ready to put supper on the table.
It was a nice afternoon at the shooting range. Go team us!
P.S. The guys had hearing protection also just the kind that fits in the ears.
