Lots of ads and articles in this mag about flashlights, mainly SF and SL [Scorpion]. This month had an article pertaining to the use of disparaging use of force in incrmental levels, of which the flashlight was touted as being an essential tool of distraction/disuading of aggression.

Alas the only led lights are Innovas [micro and X5MT {?} Tactical] and they are in advertisements only.

If I can ever think of it I'll scan a few paragraphs of text from the articles pertaining to flashlights. The Scorpion gets alot of thumbs up by these folks, and there are mucho photos of handguns displayed with knives and SF's, kinda like them showing their own or suggested EDC.

BTW, I have been subscribing to this mag for awhile. I find it different and refreshing from the usual "gun press" and they feature alot of stuff besides guns [ like lights, knives, and assesories of all sorts].
 
Hmmm...The use of a light in the tradtional force continuum is an unknown variable.

Wityh the possible exception of Strategos and the SF Institute (does the SFI even still exist?) I do not know of anyone or any Agency that advocates the use of a light in a force scenario. And personally, I would not risk my safety to see if it works.

combat handguns is a little beter than the others but still a gun rag. they'll write a glowing article about anything that pays advertising dollars.
