I used to wonder about all of these things until I took the Advanced Individual Tactics class at CSAT (Paul Howe). You will learn how to use a light and to clear rooms, T intersections in halls, vehicles and much more. You will run the drills in daylight to get a feel for things then do it again at night to see what actually works for you (your eyes will be opened when you do this :-) ). The civilians in the class were using hand held lights only (no lights on pistols). He goes over what light to have and how to use it, and how to make the proper lanyard (you do that in the class) for the light so that you can work door knobs, etc. I highly recommend the class, it will really challenge you and you will learn a lot (including what you can do with a pistol out to 80 yards). Bring rain gear if you go, it rained on us for a good part of the 3 day class and we did not stop for the weather.
