The new fangled ones clearly don't have the whacking ability of the 4D mag, but several friends have pointed out that most of us probably don't want to kill someone so a whack to the skull with a Mag may not be the best idea.
I doubt the strobe of the new fangled light is as anywhere near as effective as the commercials suggest, but I wonder if the lighter weight might make one a good choice even if it doesn't immobilize without killing. On those rare occasions when you search more than a few minutes with a Mag light the ability to whack a baseball or a skull with it loses its charm and I sometimes wish I had something lighter in my hand.
I've really only used mine to hunt night crawlers. Never really had a chance to use it as home defense, but I'm not afraid to try that the next time someone wants to break into my home. I'll be that guy who brings a Mag Lite to a knife fight!
Deceitful, two-faced she-woman. Never trust a female, Delmar, remember that one simple precept and your time with me will not have been ill spent.
