They can virtually blind an attacker momentarily, providing a split-second advantage.

  1. Good stuff. I like the Harries best because of the extra support. Bone spurs in shoulder make FBI painful. Flashlight is part of my regular drills along with one handed shooting and reloads. Strong and weak side. Some ranges won't let me do everything. :(
