Weapon mounted lights are bullet magnets.....
Clip a light on an airsoft gun and go out into the backyard and shoot it out with a training partner.
You will get shot a lot, mostly around the hands. No bueno for Byron.
I have been rethinking a lot of this stuff over the past couple of years.
When things go bump in the night....
Think night vision and armor.
Stats are that one is 85% less likely to die in a gunfight if they are wearing body armor. That is an advantage that should not be ignored.
For $2000 one can acquire kit that will sway the equation to the point that the VAST majority of criminals will have utterly no chance whatsoever. Fish in a barrel.
While this advantage might be considered to be cold blooded murder by some there can be no question that it will work like a charm.
