Yep, if you have ever spent the better part of a morning looking down
out of your tree at that ol' tush hog rooten beneath you, or danced your
way across the top of a rattler, that little old pistol becomes somewhat
of a necessary evil.  Hogs, dogs, and snakes, the scurge of the southern
forester.

The more civilized climes of the Socialist Republic of Massachusettes
have probably outlawed anything that could possible harm a civilized
forester.  >G<  The DEM probably has rules and regulations to protect
their foresters for those 2 days a year they spend in the woods, and it
carries over, as a benefit, to the muddy boot clan.

Me, I like it wild.
