Glocks notorious for jamming with....

Nah. Just a feeble attempt at humor.

Not to mention . . . . finding a holster would be a PITA!

Understandable!!

Like I am gonna strap that head thong with a light attached to my head while some ******* is breaking into my place!! I will take my chances with my weapon light!!

Uh, no, you just wear it at all times to always be prepared in case of a cop home invasion scenario!

I will start that habit tonight. Thanks for the tip!!

I have not tested them yet but because of all the negative feedback about rail mounted lights Glock has they're own line of lights for around $200.bucks

Not a single jam to report with an Insight M3X rail light. *that is with the 10 coil mags!

Just get a laser and call it a day. Just don't miss with any type of light or laser it's a death sentence when you give up your cover......

I use a surefire light on my glocks. These secure snug without pinching the the rails so much that it prevents it from flexing. The combo has been reliable so far. I avoid the TLR on glocks as it is very rigid and prevents the frame from flexing.

I do notice a slight POI change when a tac light is attached.

sorry I couldn't resist.

Lights mounted on guns are such a bad idea.
Unless you are a tunnel rat or point man on an entry team (with a pistol) please just get some training...

My TLR1 has been 100% on my gen4 g19.

Why are they a good idea?

This is just an awesome pic!! Good photography work!

Why do you want to put a light on it anyway?

A light helps you identify your target and can be a very advantageous tool for a HD handgun, if proper training and use is practiced. Yes you can use a handheld flashlight, but the weapon mounted ones are more convenient due to it being attached to your firearm and also keeps your support hand free. Disclaimer, you don't just turn on the light and walk around looking for a subject/suspect either.

My insight m3x actually has the ability to turn the light on and off instantly when flipping the switch up. Sort of like a here I am, no wait here I am approach.

I'm tracking what you're saying here but I still believe that for most applications a handheld light is a better option.
I hate the idea of people pointing their gun and whatever just went bump in the night.
With a bright handheld I can maintain muzzle discipline and still light up the corners and crevasses.
I'm a believer that everyone should practice both strong and weak handed shooting and should be able to deploy a light without having to muzzle their wife, kids, dog, etc...

No one ever said you can't have a handheld light in the other hand when identifying. I am all for that. Two lights might be better than one.

Good point...
Two is one, one is none....

Think about this for a minute. In a dark room with two lights, you could make one Hell of a diversion!!
