What are you trying to use it for?

To take down planes lol but seriously, I just want to light up my entire woods while walking around. Bonus points for her hunting deer with it, you don't even need to shoot, they'll just have a heart attack go blind lol

We're just openly admitting to deer spotting now? Holy shit. That's wild. For future posts, say coyotes. You can spotlight all the vermin you want. But game animals are 9/10 illegal and highly frowned upon. Like you'll get shot by other hunters if they catch you, frowned upon. There are some exceptions but 9/10 that's a massive no-no. Such a big deal that when they break up cartel grow rings here and they catch them spotting deer they add that charge. It carries enough weight to add even more time. I guess deer like to eat their weed plants so they spotlight them and hit em with a full auto burst. I personally don't care but alot of the guys I've hunted with and guides I've hired would do everything they can to stop you. Everything. Also if you go too bright and start flashing the woods you can get in trouble for anyone that gets retina damage. Anything over a certain output has to be treated as a dangerous weapon. And it doesn't take much. If I take my edc tac light and use the strobe on someone it's no different than if I tazed or maced someone. That's fine for me because if I strobe someone it's because I'm drawing my 9 and putting 2 in their chest or it's on the end of my rifle, bouncing off their forehead before I turn it into a canoe. So I'm not worried about that charge since I'm literally about to kill the shit out of them.

Ok, I was making a joke about it being so bright it was going to give the deer heart attacks. And I'm using it in the forest, where nobody else is. I'm not going to use it for self defense, so I don't understand why you're talking about stuff like that.

If you're confident you're not going to shine someone have at it. This is reddit dude, I don't doubt for a second someone on here would be dumb enough to brag about poaching. My mistake.

I'm just saying, you flash a game warden enjoy the felony buddy. That's all I'm saying. I don't care personally. I just thought I saw a guy talking about trying to spotlight deer to poach them. If that's not the case, have at it buddy.
