I bought a Laspur sub compact tactical rail mount LED high lumen flashlight with strobe off amazon and installed it on my ATI Bulldog 12 gauge shotgun. Comes with a charge cord with a magnetic connector so you dont have to take it off the gun to charge. It was $40

TLR-6

On my G17 I run a TLR and night sights (forget the brand). I have a G19 with a RMR but I haven't practiced enough with it to be as fast as I am with irons so I don't keep it by the bed or carry it daily yet.

TLR on the AR, O-light laser combo on the handgun. I was skeptical of the o-light and I generally try to avoid chinesium on primary weapons but it's pretty small and is nicely machined. I think it's called the Mini BALDR or something similar.

Surefire X300 on my G19 with a Trijicon SRO for my bedside gun.

The best thing you can do is get a good reliable pistol and become familiar with it. Shoot it until you feel complete confidence and the gun basically becomes an extension of your body.

G23 with a TLR-7. Night Sights as well.

A couple of drops of CLP on the slide rails keeps it running just fine.

G19 with TLR-1 HL light. It’s good to have although you don’t have to use it. More for backyard stuff.

I have a couple of ARs but if I ever need one of those,…
