Weapon Light
I am thinking about a weapon light for my 45 tactical mainly HD.
I am currently borrowing my buddy's M6, the laser is really not practical for me. And the light seems dim compaired to my hand help 6v xenon light. I was wanting to see if you guys would help me pick one out. Seems like alot of guys like the TLR-1 light. but I know there are other brands out there. If you guys wouldnt mind taking a little time to help me pick one out.

I run the Glock rail mounted light. It's pretty cheap pretty much everywhere.
If I was to buy a new one though it would be the TLR on that list. The one not on that list would be one made by Surefire as I like Surefire. IMO just like modern handguns and defensive ammo-Get what you want or can get the best deal on, ect. They are all probably so close in performance that none of us will ever notice.

I voted TRL-1 because it is what I have. The biggest difference is the TRL series is fixed to the gun by tightening a screw. Most others have a spring loaded latch that allows them to slide off the rail.

I love my TLR-1. It's rock solid and very bright.

I just bought an M3 last night for my TRP 1911.
Works pretty good, and I got it for $80 at my local dealer.

I am shocked by the poll results. We stock and sell quite a few different lights and I would have guessed that the Insight M3 / M3X would have been the best seller by far. Quite interesting What are the best deals out there floating around on the TLR-1?
