Anyone on here carry Bear Bangers (pen style pistol)

I've been looking for some cartridges for work as our field techs carry spray and bangers. I located 6 pack cartidges at Acklands but I also know that acklands is great for having everything you could possibly need but you pay thru the azz for that convienience. Anyone know other places that carry the shells???

These are the ones I need, so centre fire it is.... the others look more like a shot gun shell...

Those bangs do not go very far compared to the industrial rim fir that Midfield in Whitecourt sells. There is about 20-30m difference and the same price and yes they sell rim and centre fir pens foun out the wrong way.

Only when your dumb enough to shoot them into the air.

Anybody who has used a bear banger and had ANY training at all knows you fire them into the ground between you and the bear.

I found out that they do not work very well for lighting flare stacks either. Midfield, Acklands or Northern Metallic should have them.

Mr. Bogger,

Have you tried Gregg's? Even if they do not stock them they will bring them in for you and if the demand is there they will in-turn stock them for you.

Used to be able to get them at Canadian tire. I know Cabella's on the South side has them, camper village usually stocks them same as wholesale sports. Any gun shop will have them also.
