I am in the market for a backpacking gun in 10mm. I’ve owned and enjoy both Glocks and S&Ws, but I don’t shoot well with the extra wide G20.
Anyone have any luck with the M&P 10mm?
How is the quality of Springfield (XD line)? I’ve never owned or shot them.
And how does the grip size of the...
Camping with friends is one of my favorite pastimes. Hot or cold, rain or shine - we dont usually turn away from weather challenges. We typically pack up our backpacks and hike 3-6 miles then make camp somewhere. Monroe is a common destination because of the availability of space and lack of...
This question is for backpacking where weight counts.
The gun would be used in a emergency scenario where small game needs to be taken for survival until help arrives or you make it out of the woods.
If your gun of choice isn't in the poll, list it below.

I'm new to the forum but I'm not new to guns, I own a Glock 19, and a FN-FAL .308 rifle.
This past year I've discovered a new hobby, backpacking! I did the 21 mile loop in Manistee National Forest in MI (Manistee River Trail one direction, North County Trail back). It. Was. A. Blast.

Thanks

This is an ultralight backpacking tent, that is still free standing. Go...
Hi All,
With REI coming opening in town (in Castelton March 16th), I was wondering what your favorite stores were for backpacking/hiking and outdoor gear.
REI is just about my favorite place to go waste time and spend too much money, so I am very excited about it coming to Indy, but I would...
Hi All,
I was wondering, what your favorite backcountry/backpacking trips are 4-5 hours drive from Indianapolis? (drive can be longer an hour or two if it is worth it)
Looking forward to hearing your suggestions and getting out there... once the weather improves!
If there's another thread on this topic, I apologize in advance. I'm planning a bowhunting elk trip to Colorado next year, and have actually been followed by a mountain lion on a prior trip. I'm looking for a carry solution that will work with a backpack and be accessible with either hand...
