Good time for a concealed carry pistol. I wonder how a well .40 S&W from a Sig 229 would take down a lion. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They only go 400-500 lbs, but they are pretty ferocious. I'd rather have a .40 than nothing, but it's more than likely just going to piss them off. A quick search found this: http://huntingcalibers.tumblr.com/ They suggest .30 cal magnum rifle as a minimum."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."
