Would you recommend night sights then? I’m often out in the woods hunting and it being winter, it’s dark 24/7. I’m not looking to light up the night sky, just be able to see and properly use my sights. Thanks.Personally I wouldn't use either but I'm an outlier.
Sorry, I didn't equate EDC as hunting in the woods at night. I was thinking more of carrying as you are about and out in society.Would you recommend night sights then?

I think I explained it poorly as well. I’m looking for something to carry out in society, but also something I can carry as my backup into the woods. Besides hunting, I do lots of hiking also. You helped a lot though, thank you! I think a light would be more what I’m looking for then based off how night sights work.Sorry, I didn't equate EDC as hunting in the woods at night.

I have never hunted when it's pitch black so I'm not help. I'm sure other's will be along to help.
Night sites just light up the sight. Does nothing for ID'ing targets.
I have an Olight that has both. It has a switch to use just flashlight, just laser, or both. It gives flexibility for you. Personally, I just use the flashlight. It’s really a personal preference thing.For an everyday carry pistol, would you recommend just a light, or a light with a laser as well? Thanks .

The lights the most important part tgat way you can see the threat better and put them at a disadvantage. A light and laser if you want it but the lights already guna wash out the laser most of the time.For an everyday carry pistol, would you recommend just a light, or a light with a laser as well?

The night sights are a great option for bedside guns. Ive experimented with them and found in the low light conditions that a house tends to be in in a city they allow you to find your sights easier then stock sights. In a situation like mine where I can quickly check to ensure my wifes in bed with me then I now know anyone else in my home is an enemy. That being said I still run a light on my bedside gun because its far more useful.I hate lasers on weapons. You can’t properly engage targets quickly training to look for a dot on anything other than a RDS IMO. For lights, I would carry a handheld before mounting a weapon light. You must be able to illuminate without pointing your firearm in most circumstances. Handheld and WML is better.
Night sights are cool, but completely unnecessary. Everyone used them when they became an affordable trend, until we all realized you should never be shooting at anything you can’t clearly see, which requires a light, and makes night-sights useless in all but a few lighting circumstances. Cool feature, but skip the night sights and get a quality light if you don’t already have night sights.
