I took a pretty fun light course today! It was nice. Got a chance to learn difference light hold positions and how to enter an enclosed area (I.e. Rooms, housing area) to search for possible adversaries. Neat!!! I tell you. It's all about learning and tackling it head first. It was a great class. 5-midnight but lasted thru 230 am... I had a mega size monster and a sugarfree redbull (large) ... Now, I can't sleep! But I wanted to share my experience and was wondering if anyone had any ideas on another good place to go... Btw, I'm headed to frontsight in December ; ) ... Thanks!

Curious, was the advice to use a hand held light, turning the light on and off, and holding the light away from your body?
Or, was the instruction with a mounted light on the handgun?
I took a short course at Firearms Training Associates http://www.ftatv.com/surefire-institute in Norco at Rahaaugees, at the time, the instruction was not to use a weapon mounted light, as the light itself becomes a target when used, and to only pulse the light to momentarily see, not continuous use of light."If Congress can do whatever in their discretion can be done by money, and will promote the General Welfare, the Government is no longer a limited one, possessing enumerated powers, but an indefinite one, subject to particular exceptions."

Yes, monster and redbull within 6 hrs kinda icky in hindsight lol!
Sajedene, one thing someone told me was that there is no where you can't take your light, it's useful and can be intimidating on the other end. Us being chicas, the more tools we use in our defense, the better. Since learning more about them, I'll probably always have one on me now.Last edited by OliveCookieMonsta; 09-26-2010, 11:23 AM.Shooting things makes me Smile

^^^ Again, curious, what qualifications, if any, does the instructor of the class have?^^"If Congress can do whatever in their discretion can be done by money, and will promote the General Welfare, the Government is no longer a limited one, possessing enumerated powers, but an indefinite one, subject to particular exceptions."

Handguns and long guns...
Sorry PatriotnMore, I'm not gonna say much more, it seems you are looking for something much more that what my original intentions on the post was about. I just wanted to say I had a good time.
Thanks! ; )Shooting things makes me SmileComment

If you are ever in So Cal, Lemon Grove Rod and Gun holds a night fun shoot every other friday. Safety is paramount, but we do keep score. Usually run 5 stages with a couple in twilight, although soon, they will all be in the dark. My wife has shot it twice and had a great time as well. Rimfire or centerfire is allowed...
