Ever thought of a Glock 29 for a sub compact that will take care of bigger woods critters?

I also like takin off backpackin and have thought bout what to carry.
Ya gotta figure in how much weight all the extra ammuntion etc is gonna put on your back. The new SC's sometimes with mag extensions that feel exactly the same as a service model. I just looked at one the other day. Course I pack for days at a time when I'm out in the woods, so you might not need to worry about weight if you don't stay out like I do. Hope that helps.

FatBob,
You said you dayhiked with a 3 year old, so I thought you would be carrying a pretty small, light pack. When I do stuff like that and have no need for tent, sleeping mat, sleeping bag, etc my pack is an ALICE pack with the frame removed. When I go on 2 or 3 day trips and my pack gets up over 45 lbs. I carry in a homemade tactical vest. Last time I wore it under a sweatshirt and pulled the sweatshirt out over the waistbelt. I am modifying it for summer trips to wear over a t-shirt and still keep my full size XD with M3 tac light concealed. My apologies for misunderstanding what you are needing.

I'd like to carry a medium size frame-less pack, but a small internal frame pack would be great as well. I am thinking a smaller pistol in a lower side pocket on my strong side would be about best. I'm giving a lot of thought to the Kahr PM9 or PM40, even though it has less rounds, it's small and light and I could put it in a pocket holster, and most likely I would sew a pocket holster into the pack (inside a pocket or somewhere). Also I could easily carry a spare magazine somewhere else without much bulk . |

for hiking, I like to have at least a .40 full size for accuracy and power against possible animals. I carry in a shoulder holster to keep the weight off my waist but have quick access to it if needs arise.
