[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 2384981, member: 1132"] Well do you prefer blondes or brunettes? (redheads are for those with a death wish, but they are pretty) Seriously, you'll get the various responses. Some will say it's bad to have it on your gun because the BG's will shoot at the light or you'll point your gun at your kids. Others will say that you'll be able to shoot faster and more accurately with both hands properly on the gun, and that using the spill from the light is enough to ID a potential threat without pointing the gun at them before you decide to fire. I do prefer a WML, but only with a pressure activated switch. This allows manipulation of phones, doors, non-combatants, etc. with one hand while leaving the other free to operate both gun and light. The best of both worlds is...well...both! The whole "Two is one and one is none." applies at home as well as away. Another thought to consider is having a handheld availabe to strategically place where the beam is on a choke point, while you hide in the shadows and away from the light. That way the BG's are blinded by the light and you still have both hands on the gun. It's a personal choice and if possible, you should try both before deciding. [/QUOTE]
