Dan, read the post by Brian Curnow. Don't let false bravado get the best of you. I have
lived in this county for about 35 years now. When the EUKA was still running, I rode over
1,000 miles in all 4 of the GD-38's, learning a lot about the locale and it's local citizenry.
Listen to good advice. If you go in there armed, you are out of your own element, in somebody elses, and at a legal and tactical disadvantage. You are not prepared to handle a
hostile environment. The newspapers have frequently reported dead "visitors" up in that area
and very little ever gets resolved afterwards.
