From that thread and others on the topic:
Sorta around sometimes for some of your shitty mod needs.
I don't have the data of BBI, but from my files I have approximately 50 muggings/assaults that have occurred within my neighborhood. If I just isolate the ones after dark (N=12), the victims had no problem identifying age/race/actions of their attackers, unless they were ambushed directly from behind (N=2). The majority of mugging incidents here actually occurred during rush hours (morning and evening).
Weapon light goes on the gun on the nightstand. Long-guns have weapon lights on them.
When I carry a gun on my person, a hand-held light in my pocket. Usually a Four-Sevens Quark with the two mode head.
I’m going to see if I can do the training in the next month or so, as I want to get a whole new gun belt... and would be easier to do just get a new holster that takes a light (and when we switch to Glocks, another for that).
In regards to off duty, I tend to carry a light more times than I don’t. Currently, S&W 642-1 in 9mm... with LaserMax weapon light. I don’t use it for searching. However, if the gun is out, I want to see the target as best as I can. Weapon mounted light works well in that role.
A lot of people make it seem like it is one or the other; handheld or weapon light. Can do both... which is what I do. With how small/light weapon lights are today, there isn’t a real negative shy of holster availability.
Recently went back to the P30, so each night the WML gets added. With camping season coming to an end for the family, my perceived usefulness of one outside of the house is now greatly diminished. I do think before next season starts, I'll pick up a Phlster Floodlight and use that while camping. But other than that, I will use the SF EDCL2T.
Taking a break from social media.
