We have issued WML's since 2004 to everyone in the department. Recently everyone was given a Surefire G2X/V70 combo. This did not come out of someone using the light inappropriately, rather we had extra money at the end of the fiscal year and did not want to give it back to the city. We also have lights on all of the patrol rifles and hope to expand that to all shotguns next year. We have never had a ND involving WML's use or misuse. We did have one guy who's revolver cylinder would hang up so his solution was to pull the hammer back ever so slightly while releasing the cylinder. he did this while simultaneously pulling the trigger to release the hammer. Weird I know, we found out when he shot his locker. Needless to say he no longer works for us.
