I DON'T NEED LIGHTS FOR MY FIREARMS: CHANGE MY MIND
checko replied to gleninjersey's topic in Handguns
You're not understanding me correctly. I'm probably not articulating it the best way possible. His arguement is essentially "fuck it, if I dont know what it is I'll shoot it and sort it out later", or at least that's how it's coming across. I'm not getting into the minutiae about he says one thing and might do another or whatever. Its irrelevant. The fact is that if you can't reliably identify a target, you are putting yourself and others at risk. I don't care if he agrees and I'm not trying to change his mind. I will, however, freely state that I think it is dangerous and reckless to do and can easily be remedied in the vast majority of situations with a quality white light for the people who have not yer made up their mind.

I dont think anyone cares if he has a light or not. It's the nonchalant attitude about shooting something you cant identify. I agree that it is reckless and easily rectifiable. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk -

These are all my "two zero" watches. Actually I have a smartwatch as well that is more like an extension of my phone. But each of these to me is an every day type of watch. My favorites are the 2 citizen calibre's. Reasonable price, never needs a battery and imo great aesthetics. The "rubbery one" is the suunto core. I've beat the shit out of the watch and have had no issues. I like the fact that it has a built in compass and storm alert. Very comfy as well. Not a fan of g shocks.

I think people seriously discount the effect a bright white light has on someone who is already adjusted to no/low light. It is temporarily blinding and can cause serious disorientation of unexpected. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk -

I dont but it looks pretty good. 500 lumens isnt bad and the price is right. I dont have an issue with my 1hl extending past the muzzle. As some one earlier said you can chapstick the lens and clean the light quick and easy. You still benefit from the extra lumens Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk -

Seems like a justification to not spend money. If it was any other gun than a HD gun it is totally optional. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk -

Thats super. But telling people that a $15 light is the same as a quality weapon mounted light is asinine. Sent from my LG-V496 using Tapatalk -

Its not even like im saying to buy the most expensive or the most bells and whistles. Im just saying dont buy a peice of shit to put on a firearm that will put a substantial amount of stress on the light itself. Firearms are an expensive hobby and in the grand scheme of things $100 is worth putting on a gun that may be used in a life threatening situation. Sent from my LG-V496 using Tapatalk -

No. But if you just start squeezing off rounds in the dark at 2am you have no idea who or what youre shooting at. Sent from my LG-V496 using Tapatalk -

I doubt they would suggest something that much. I could buy a 1000 lumen surefire and nount it for under 200. Do what you gotta do bud but its definitely not the best or most effecient way. Sent from my LG-V496 using Tapatalk -

Thats not a very bright (ha pun) decision. Just having someone in your house does not necessarily give you the right to end their life. Good luck shooting some unarmed 16 year old and spending many years in prison. Sent from my LG-V496 using Tapatalk
