Anyone know if the suppressor will interfere with the throw of the light from a weapon light mounted on a pistol? Seems like it would light up the bottom of the suppressor but will it cast a shadow in the beam?
I don't know, but if you shoot somebody who's robbing your house with a suppressor on, you'll be facked.
I have a railed riser you can have if you want.

Why is that? Inside the domicile, one if in fear for their life. Can do what ever necessary to stop said threat. How one goes about it it up to them. Myself, doesn't see a suppressor on a HD gun. Each to their own. I have something that can be replaced, next day and not really shed a tear over. YMMV

Don't you know?
When using a firearm for self defense inside a building or vehicle, you must not have a suppressor or hearing protection.
It makes you think twice about pulling the trigger and blowing out your eardrums.

Whistle could cause damage as well. Best to stick with peeing on yourself as it makes no noise whatsoever.

Just a FYI, Went to ark and he set up a glock with a streamlight and an osprey and tested it in a dark hallway. There is a decent shadow at 12 o'clock but it's still workable.
as for peeing in silence, that doesn't work for me as a nice beef always comes around. Or if it's after that ill fated burrito the dreaded shart makes its presence known.
If this helps here is my Glock 17 with Octane 9 and Surefire:

Sorry about the picture being sideways. It's late and I don't feel like fighting with it.
Looks like it works great as long as you don't need to identify the threat. :p

Yes, the suppressor will interfere.

What ever one uses for self defense. Remember that item will be confiscated, with an unknown return date. SO.............. if you felt 60-120 day wait for that NFA item was long, i suggest you have something else for a HD gun..
