I've been reading with some interest the thread concerning WMLs (Weapon Mounted Lights) with strobe features, when it occured to me to ask this question, so I decided to create a new thread, rather than side track the existing thread.
"How many of us actually train or have gotten training to use either WMLs or flashlights in defensive situations?"
I myself haven't had any professional training, I've only created a couple scenarios and tried to shoot a 'stage' essentially one-handed with my support hand occupied by a flashlight.
Without getting into the nitty gritty, I've observed that at least for myself, my shooting is less accurate (larger groups) and my overall times go up. Also, I only do that sort of thing every few months, and maybe a couple sets at most. In other words, I'm mostly just farting around for a half a dozen magazines or so.
I was wondering how many others do any sort of training with a light, and if so what kind and how involved are you getting? Do you prefer WMLs or flashlights, and why?
