There's enough light from mine that I don't have to have them pointed directly at whatever. For me, low ready provides enough to see and avoid pointing a firearm directly at something or someone until required.carlson1 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 13, 2024 6:35 pm I have seen too many people including police using their weapon lights for a “flashlight.” So you are pointing your gun and something or someone you DON’T want to shoot. I carry a small Sure Fire hand held light in my left pocket.
One of the Forum members (I don’t remember who) talked about flashlights and knives 15 years ago. I began to carry both and I use my knife more than anything and my light on many occasions. I am not a knife guy nor have I ever been able to open it with my thumb. I was so happy when Texas allowed automatic knives.
I am however like Paladin I have lights on my AR, Shotgun and pistol beside my bed.

Re: Weapon lights on your EDC with Paul Howe
After a few personal defense night matches at my club I realized I need to put a light on my handgun and get a holster that would allow me to carry it that way. I did that for my G21SF for several years.
Now, I almost exclusively carry 1911’s in full or subcompact models without a light. I still have the Glock setup, but rarely carry it anymore. I do have it available at home for those low light situations. I just don’t carry it anymore and I’m not out at night much anymore either.
