I am always surprised no one typically considers dim light where you can identify the threat fine but seeing the sights is a problem. Yes yes reflex shooting, too close to miss yada yada I just like being able to line up effective center of mass to head shots as needed. Really haven’t seen anything so dark as to not be able to identify an intruder armed or not short of a full on blackout but that may be a more rural issue.

“(not that anyone in their right mind would fire a handgun or rifle in complete darkness).”

If I’m attacked walking to my car in total darkness, it’s game fvcking on.

You go right ahead and be a victim, jimmy… 😉

This ^^^^.

Not so much.

Come nighttime, especially on handguns, not so much… 🙁
