NO NO NO I am not above taking constructive criticism. In fact I am the type that welcomes it. I will be the first to admit that I don't know everything. I know what I was taught in the military and in the few discussions I have had with those that were more knowledgeable. My point is and was... that the "uninvited" regardless of how they got there are wrong for being there and therefore subject to my determination of wether they should live or get escorted out in a body bag. I thought you were referring to me as an idiot in your post. I apologize for the misunderstanding. Regardless, I don't see how attaching a light to my pistol would make any difference to me. I carry the same pistol that I shoot when I practice, or shoot the competitions at Heartland and other places with. A light...IMHO.... is just not a neccessity.
