[QUOTE="Joe, post: 257335, member: 9"] And yet there've been numerous instances where bears have killed hunters with rifles because they couldn't mount the gun on time, and the bear mauled them to death.

Didn't get to his truck on time, the bear got 'im first and they found his remains all chewed and chomped on by Mr. Grizzly.
