LIGHT NUPROL
THE NX200 TACTICAL
WAY A TACTICAL LIGHT IS A FLASHLIGHT USED WITH EITHER A RIFLE OR IN THIS
CASE A PISTOL TO AID LOW-LIGHT TARGET IDENTIFICATION, ALLOWING
YOU TO AIM A WEAPON AND ILLUMINATE THE TARGET SIMULTANEOUSLY.
TACTICAL LIGHTS CAN BE HANDHELD OR MOUNTED TO OR WITH YOUR
PISTOL VIA A RAIL WITH THE LIGHT BEAM PARALLEL TO THE BORE.
TACTICAL FLASHLIGHTS ARE ALSO USED IN THE REAL WORLD AS A METHOD
OF NON-LETHAL FORCE, USED TO TEMPORARILY BLIND AND DISORIENT A
TARGET, WHICH CAN WORK IN OUR WORLD TOO.
Tactical lights may have optional filters to produce coloured light, usually red, to preserve night
vision or may emit only infrared light for use with night vision equipment.
Believe it or not, the first tactical torches illuminated targets way back in 1900, but the early
bulbs were often too fragile to survive a firearm recoil. A United States patent was issued in 1912
for a night sight for firearms demonstrated on a revolver with a bulb mounted in a shock absorber
below the barrel and the grip modified to hold a battery and include a pressure switch.
Weapon-mounted lights offer hands-free use, leaving the operator free to use both hands to
control the weapon. Most models have an on/off switch mounted to a short wire or pleasure
switch built into the light housing. Although the vast majority of modern pistol lights have integral
switches, you can still get some examples of older lights that use external pleasure switches.
