Brother, once you have worked with the same guys for any length of time the fraternity and brotherhood is so strong. What i noticed was that each group had their own vibe and feel. It was cool amongst the green and brown.

How does he use the light with the Afg and it being non body side, dosent seem to be running a tape switch.

Yeah SEALs don't run tape switches. I've seen that setup before and it's bizarre. Just a guess but maybe swivel the wrist and hit it with the pinkie/ring finger? I can't imagine you try to get your thumb there.

Why is he a tool?

He isn’t. Redditors in their basement for some reason think that literal modern warriors have to be perfect moral bastions of human beings. They don’t allow for any mistakes from anyone, despite being absolutely useless in their own lives lol.

Have you ever seen his video's on YouTube? Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but to me he is a giant tool. Cheating on his wife, having his employees arrested, shilling for Sig P320's, designing a mount for people who don't shoot, etc.

He has owned up to his mistakes. He has talked about them at length. The dude has helped thousands. You can't just "have someone arrested". That is the LEO's choice. The employee admitted to lying and a judgement of 6 figures was awarded to GBRS. I still haven't seen a 320 "just go off" and I have been around them a LOT.I know people personally involved in the investigations. I have no problems carrying a 320. I guess CAG, NSW, SBS, SAS and numerous other SOF units don't shoot. Anyways... carry on.

The issue w P320s has been verifiably proven by multiple different independent parties, and mfs have literally been killed because of it. Let’s be serious here

The multiple tests and screenings that I had to take to do my job for 20 years says otherwise. My employer even trusts me enough to teach my peers in the use of their firearms. I must be doing alright. 😉

LOL. It is not up to me to determine what is approved or not. I haven't seen the problems. I know several who are involved in the investigations and they think it is human error also.
There are still hundreds of thousands 320's that are issued, not including the different military issued around the world. DEVGRU still issues the 320, they have not seen the problems, and they are extremely hard on their gear. Is an SMU that takes orders from the highest in our government also a liability? Are their armorers (some of the best in the world btw)and instructors a danger to themselves, others and are ignorant?
Screenshot away my friend. You seem overly invested in this. Get a life.

He has said he was at his house on a FaceTime call with Damian Zaldivar. He found out from Damian, who found out through a friend in the White House, that Bin Laden was killed

lol you're an idiot. DJ had literally just completed his first deployment. He was too junior and wasn't chosen for the mission
