It is very easy to light up a situation without shining the light directly at somebody. Point the light down if outside, or up inside & you'll have plenty of light to see.LSUTiger wrote:Just to clarify my position. Carry a gun. Carry a handheld light. The question is "should I carry weaponlight?" NEVER carry a gun with a weaponlight without carrying a handheld light.
I only have 1 handgun that has a light rail on it, but that one stays by my nightstand or near me in the house. I carry a light between a fixed blade & my spare mag on my weak side. I use it quite often. I wouldn't have a problem with carrying a weapon light also if I had a suitable holster.
