Sure, it is not _literally_ impossible to kill a grizzly with a handgun. But, to quote yourself: > Handgun can work, but what if it doesn't? The point is not that it should be forbidden to bring guns when you hike in grizzly territory, but that by experience, many people who do are also the least knowledgeable about bears (and I say it that way to stay polite). Who cares if I let meat leftovers next to the campsite, I have a gun! Who cares if I go down a trail rangers explicitly told me not to because of the bear presence, I have a gun!
