i know this bait is shit, but on the off chance you're actually moronic, i'll tell you that it completely blinds whoever it's pointed at
>shoots you because i can see the source of the light
>you don't blind or shoot anyone because youre too busy strobing from side to side trying to see shit
>Oh let me just frickin wave my flashlight around and hope that someone gets blinded by it before they can shoot me, which they will have an easy time doing because I'm illuminating myself
Next moron
Nobody moves anywhere at night with their weapon lights on moron. How fricking dumb are you
>nobody uses their light
I know
Then why mount it to your gun, moron?
It is sometimes useful to ID a target before shooting. Sometimes you need to illuminate a task.
Real pleb move is only have one light.
Trying to justify your consoomer AR accessory purchases is just sad.
Have fun shooting your kids mate
I have no loved ones.
That's what you get for not having a fricking light
>See movement in the dark
>Open fire blindly
>It was your wife and daughter wanting to surprise you on your birthday
Real life is not a video game.
Just close your eyes if you don’t like it moron
It's done by police as their official stance is to positively ID any threat before they should fire - its not hard to understand
Why do nolights post here and think that anyone with experience is not going to immediately shit on them
People use gun lights all the fricking time because you CANNOT SEE or VISUALLY IDENTIFY your target, not because it's fricking cool to have on there. If its dark enough to "Destroy your nightvision" when flicked on it's too dark to fire let alone acquire your sights (if they're not electronic or trits).
Homeboys been skipping is carrots, can't see without his nightlight
>*puts 16 rounds of 10mm through a bush*
>*puts 16 rounds through their wife who went to get a glass of water*
>he still buys into 80 year old propaganda
How fricking many people here are cops, bro. How many work security? How many have even had to check their house and yard over when something went bump and you get to play the Do We Or Don't We Bother The Sheriff's Office game?
If it's all supposition anyway, I can just tell you white light is for homosexsicals, coast out on my heelies, and nobody can ever prove me wrong.
It just amazes me that there are people to which something as basic as "be in the dark" is so alien that they think they can just rely on their night vision at all times.
Spotted the urbanite joggers who will never know the joy of being at least 20 miles from the nearest population of over 50 people.
I don't need to visually identify the person coming into my house, if the only other person who is supposed to be in my house is laying in bed next to me. Larp somewhere else.
Nice fantasy. Is your wife from any specific anime?
I use a light so I can see if the noise I heard in the middle of the night was a burglar or if it was my idiot daughter sneaking out again
>t.no kids
Sad, many such cases.
I will simply light up the night with muzzle flashes
>nolights
Legitimately chuckled.
>He doesnt have an Intellibeam
I don't know what your excuse is, they aren't even expensive.
try being in the dark and then having a powerful flashlight directed in your face
>makes a shit argument thread about a bon weapon and a weapons board, the item in question being undoubtedly the most useful self defence tool in existence, all because you can't afford any flashlight other than a gas station LED
KYS poorgay
>Don't have flashlight because some anon on /k/ told you it's not cool
>Can't see sweet frick all, just shoot at the first vaguely human-ish black shape among the other black spots
>Whoops, just shot the fridge for no reason
>Hey that guy just pointed his flashlight at the fridge, now I know exactly where he is.
>Welp! Time to shoot him in the head and frick is wife!
>wow that guy didn’t have a weapon light and couldn’t see me hiding in a dark corner
>gave him a staby stab
>time to frick his husband
Guys who don’t use lights are gays
So what you're saying is that all nighttime ops boil down to "I'm sitting in my dark corner and you're sitting in your dark corner and we're just gonna have to wait for the sun to come up"
>AHHH MY HECKIN FLASHALINO IS POINTLESS NOW ILL NEVER GET TO USE IT
underrated
Why the frick is the invader just walking around your house in absolute pitch black conditions and not falling over the tripwires you keep by the front door? Are you being invaded by fricking vampires who can see perfectly in the dark?
No burglar would ever make it through my home in the dark without tripping and falling over at least ten different things between whatever entry point they use and where I spend the majority of my time.
Not my problem
>I don't need to see who I'm shooting at
>If I point the light at them, they'll know the general direction to mag dump me
Wish I could say I'm surprised that these posts are full of video game logic and the assumption that you'll be forever alone, no need to worry that you shot your child's friend or anyone else you don't easily recognize
In short, incels seething at sexhavers and unable to imagine a world where they dont shoot strangers or why people might be in their house for non-B&E reasons
Explains their general propensity to shoot up schools and grocery stores, general hostility to the world of functioning adults as they are stuck as manchildren
If only they could find a way to have sex
I'm concerned about NOT shooting my gf or her friends, or my friends, or eventually my children. I have to be able to see who I'm looking at and assess what they're doing before shooting at shapes.
have you ever had a 1000 lumen flashlight shined in your face? you aren't seeing anything.
you only activate the light when you see an outline of someone and need to identify. the rest of the time the light is off.
sorry I don't have time to put on my nods during a home invasion
>Some homosexuals even attach it to the gun
some homosexuals pay more then $12 for one also
Motherfricker, you're probably posting from a phone. Just use that and save $12 for your next gun purchase.
have a nice trip
1969
For teh price of someof these homosexual Fleshlights you could buy a premium pair of sunglasses and use those a shit moe times tehn gun lights!
I cucked a guy with a girl who insisted on keeping her underwear on. Just pushed it to the side.
I figure she did that so she could tell him we hung out and she kept her underwear on, idk, idc.
That wasnt a girl!
For me, it's FBI technique
what's that new flashlight? it has a handheld and a pistol mounted version? it uses some bizarre mechanism to produce light. it's not an led.
LEP
>thinks he’s going to sneak attack a pack of Tyrones who have the upper hand from kicking down their door at 3am
>thinks they aren’t already going to know where he is in the pod he calls a home
>plans to shoot without PID’ing your target first
>thinks 2,000 lumens and 60,000 candela doesn’t disorient
>can’t shill for an Olight Valkyrie but wants us to believe he owns NODs
Do poorgays really?
Darkness is your friend in a home invasion anon. You know the house, they do not. Light gives away position. Simple as.
This
If you see a light beam from around the corner, just shoot through the walls.
Defending your home is about stealth and giving the intruders the assumption that you're not home or fast asleep.
One of the complaints by Russians during Hostomel airport was the lack of flashlights. There were plenty of dark areas inside buildings they had to clear, no NODS or too bright for NODS as well. Flashlight wouldve been real handy.
AGHHHHH NO WHY DID YOU BRING A LIGHT I CANT SEE DONT YOU KNOW IT GIVES AWAY YOUR POSITION AND HURTS YOUR NIGHT VISION NO STOP SHOOTING ME PLEASE YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO NOT BLIND ME
>mag dumps into wife and kids coming home late from a pool party
I feared for my life
>pool party
>late enough that you don’t have lights on in your home
Damn why didn’t you got to that party sounds litty frfr
This. Lights are moronic. Just shoot at suspect noises and shadows. If you can't tell your family members by the noise they do when walking, you shouldn't own a gun.
This. My wife always wears slippers in the house because Japanese people are afraid of touching the floor with their bare feet, so I can just shoot at anyone that doesn’t make a shuffling slippers sound.
Someone post that one clip of the unsuspecting girl cop knocking on the door then being greeted with a pistol. She blinds the guy, ducks and then takes him out, would've been dead without the flashlight.
FLASHLIGHT!
I don't understand why you would put a light on a carry pistol. In any scenario involving a justified use of force, you're not going to have time to frick around with turning the light on. Nor are you going to use it like a flashlight and point your loaded gun a someone just so you can identify if they are a threat. You need separate flashlight so you can identify threats without getting arrested for brandishing a firearm
Lemme be honest, I have the light on my carry pistol because the extra weight is nice and the utility might get used once in a blue moon
I always carry a separate light anyway
>someone is standing behind your car, you see him duck down and pop back up, something in their hands, maybe a weapon
>draw and hit them with the flashlight
>it's just some dude picking up his keys
>avoid getting assraped by nigs in prison
A flashlight is an essential item on basically any firearm outside of the range
I assume OP was talking about natural night vision
>someone is standing behind your car, you see him duck down and pop back up, something in their hands, maybe a weapon
>draw and hit them with the flashlight
>it's just some dude picking up his keys
>he calls the police, some guy pulled a gun on me in the parking lot
>get assraped by nigs in prison
I use my support hand to turn on the flashlight
>heh, this idiot doesn't realize that i know exactly where he is!
Your a moron
Is that how you hold your gun? With your arm fully extended to the side and your gun held sideways like a Black person?
It's the new c-clamp
Alternatively
>Criminal gets away because you couldn't see him in the dark.
>Destroys night vision
>what is autogating
Used to be a Police reservist in South Africa. We were trained that when using your light, hold it at arms length to the side of your body, criminals shoot at the light so don't hold it infront of you. Usually we would work in teams of two, one man holds the light in a central position in the space you are searching then the second has the R5 ready and moves forward.
>so cheap its almost free
>not heavy enough to matter
>ready for a power outage
>ready if you have to defend yourself outside your home
I'm trying to find a reason not to have a light, but I can't.
This thread is specifically about clearing your house with a flashlight on
you know you only turn it on when you need it right? like you don't just turn the light on and leave it?
>t.notarustchad
Even 11 year olds know how to use a weapon flashlight in video games.
>using lights at all
Anyone who has a lightbulb in their house is just LARPING. Anyone who isn't a gay needs to cut power to their house right now to prove their dedication.
I'm having a hard time believing no one here has had a flashlight shined at them before. Going from not being able to see too goodly to having Tien hit you with a fricking solar flare really razzles your dazzle. It's easy to understand no one has walked outside at night considiering the state of this board but come on; you never accidentally hit yourself with a flashlight? Strobe lights are moronic though. Webm related. Makes it so you both can't see shit.
That webm doesnt prove shit lol
>posting from a phone
And longer than you've been able to afford one that can do it.
Yeah man they should really just activate their state israelite-funded night vision eyes
away position and direction of aim
Don't turn it on untill you're in position
night vision, anything not in spotlight is invisible
The light partially illuminates the entire room, kinda like when you point a flashlight at the ceiling.
>>Some homosexuals even attach it to the gun, so you have no doubt about the position of the barrel
How is the ability to point and shoot a bad thing?
