I run a streamlight TLR-1 with strobe function when I run my pistol. I mainly play CQB and have been using a pistol light or flashlight on my rifles and SMGs with pressure switch for more than 8 years. I never play without a flashlight now!
helps with lighting up the target and giving you that extra split second when they are "stunned" by the light when you pull the trigger. Plus you can follow your BBs easier, and walk the shot onto the target if necessary.
I've only had a flashlight with strobe function for less than a year now. I don't find I use it that often unless I'm trying to get across a gap. I turn it on, point it at the op-for and run! The reason I don't use it when I'm trying to shoot a target is cause it takes two taps on the TLR-1 to activate the strobe function.
If I am shooting at someone I can tap the flashlight once and get the shot off faster. But having the strobe isn't a necessity in a flashlight, it's a "nice-to-have".
