Help me understand something. I am a Vietnam combat veteran. I walked the jungle at night sometimes and I NEVER thought about have a bright light at the end of my barrel. I wouldn't even smoke cigarettes after dark. Why in the world would I want a spotlight on my weapon now? Too many TV shows show the good guys totally giving their position away while hunting the bad guys. A bright light might spoil the BG night vision but why give your position away? Or, could it just be another gimmic for the retailers to get your dollars?
