Best Shotgun Laser Sights

A lot of readers of the blog ask about the best shotgun laser. Personally, I don’t use them on my shotgun but tested several of them. So let me share my experience with two of the best lasers for shotguns.

Best Shotgun Flashlights – Updated, August 2020

It is extremely important to have flashlight on your shotgun. You can’t shoot if you can’s see a target. I have tested many flashlights and decided to make a new post. This post has information about old flashlights and new ones.

I was surprised that some of the inexpensive flashlights are really good, reliable and bright. I still prefer Fad Defense Speedlight because of its compact size and brightness but you may choose one of the other flashlights.

2 Flashlights for Remington 870: Streamlight TLR and Surefire Forend Light

One of the most common upgrades you can make to your Remington 870 shotgun is adding a flashlight to it. Light is an essential resource to have when you are trying to shoot in areas where you cannot see very well. Perhaps you are outside hunting at dusk or at nighttime and you want to be able to see in front of you better. A flashlight mounted onto your Remington 870 will give you the necessary light source you need to see what’s nearby. If you use your Remington 870 for home defense then the flashlight mount will come in handy during day or night. Even if there’s daylight outside, there could be a target that comes indoors or in an area where it is shaded from the sun. It is better to be safe than sorry so it is always a good idea to equip your shotgun with a flashlight mount. It is lightweight and doesn’t take up much space on your weapon.

Night Shotgun Training for Home Defense

Participated in very interesting shotgun training this week end. Most of the home defense situations happen during the dark time of the day that is why it is important to test your shotgun with flashlight and your skills in the darkness. The best time for night shotgun training is winter when it gets dark early.

I’ve had a chance to visit shooting range several times to test flashlights and to participate in specialized night shotgun training.
