Shot a Low Light IDPA match last Thursday. James and I talk about it and hope to encourage you to train in low light. Get a good flashlight and learn how to use it or a rail mounted light on your gun! A skill you definitely need to practice.

Highlights:

  • What we learned and observed at the match.
  • Why I need a better flashlight!
  • Techniques used by good shooters with flashlights.
  • Are night sights effective for low light situations?
  • Get a rail mounted light for your home defense gun.
  • Lots of good listener feedback.
  • More on why guns jam.

Thanks for listening, don’t forget the Freedom Raffle, Join the Gun Rights Radio Network forum and interact with me and other podcasters and listeners and check out my YouTube Channel. I just posted a new video up there.
