Please explain underlined area above. I carry my G19 with a rail mounted TLR-1 daily, there is nothing impractical about it.

The vast majority of violent crimes occur in the dark. I'd say it's very practical to carry with a light.
For me a weapon light is impractical. I am outside in daylight 98% of the time, I walk a lot and carry concealed. The additional bulge and weight is main reason not to use a light on my gun. I have a TLR 2 and I am not saying it is useless but it is just not my preference.

Re: Lights for home defense

I have a decent illuminator but it is not mounted anywhere. In my opinion a gun mounted light is only practical on a gun designated for use at home only, not for carry. I agree with safety conscious minds and do not prefer a light on my gun but one readily available when I need it.
