City where when you leave town, you must be armed!!!!

I am talking about Svalbard. A city of about 2000 citizens and you not need a visa to visit there. And anybody can live there as long as you support yourself. Enjoy 5 months of only daylight. And of course in Winter when it is dark, enjoy the northern lights. Don't worry about polar bears since if one threatens you you get to kill it. And others will rush to help you deal with the bear. It has a hunk of Russia in it as well.

I'll take the chick, but you could not pay me enough money to live in an ice hell hole like that.

I flew My 738 into Svalbard. I twas fun.

I'd like to visit it IRL. They didn't say, but if they have those viewing tents/igloos for sleeping under the arora, I'd like to do that. Provided they're at least semi-heated.

Did you note that nobody that was toting a rifle was using one with a scope?

Iron sights for dangerous game is good common sense approach though I would go with a receiver peep sight for faster target acquisition.

YES but I did not assume everybody did not have a scope. I can check their rules to learn this.
