I have a TLR-1 on my firearm, which has 2 advantages... obviously lighting and IDing the target, but also aids in aiming as the beam falls on the center of the site picture.


I do need to get a CC holster for it though... my OC retention holster does accommodate the weapon-light.

Remember not to leave the light on though. Recommend a pressure switch. As the saying goes, tracers work both ways.

With the movie playing there was enough light to hit your target.

The low light was the least of the problems. Crowd, panic, tear gas, adrenaline, etc.


Any hit on a bullit proof vest is like being hit with a sledgehammer(disabling),

Just trying to correct this misinformation where I find it. The shooter wasn't wearing body armor.

To be honest, when I first read your post, I thought you were stating what you believed. Quotation marks would have made that clearer.

Fair enough. I try to remember to quote properly, ever since Bronson scolded me for not doing it right.

Yeah, it has a toggle switch (pressure switch) and a constant on... I would be using the toggle... works perfect for my 2 handed grip.. my thumb operates the switch.
