Everyone says bring 2 guns so in case one fails you can salvage your hunt. I carry my Raging judge Scoped in a cross shoulder holster, and I carry my Ruger SR1911 .45 acp in my belt holster. I don't carry my .45 in case my Judge fails, I carry it so in case I get jumped or ambushed by a predator, it is easier to draw a smaller gun from belt holster and rapidly unload 7 shots, then it is to swing the 7 inch barrel scoped from a shoulder holster and pull the 10 pound trigger 6 times.
