Does anyone here think having one of these mounted on your guns is a good idea? The batteries for these high output dudes are generally CR123 Lithium, which
put out a good amount of light in the short term. I have one that I'm probably going to put on a home defense shotgun, but wonder if they do more harm
then good.

I have several.
One rides on my Glock 21 in the "#$%& and git" bag, hanging on the passenger seat of my patrol car. Another hangs on the CAR-15 and another on the FAL. Needless to say, I like a lot of light. The LED TLR's are heads above the older M-3 and M-6 lights from Insight, used to have several of them also. The light lasts longer, doesn't break the filament under recoil once it's really hot and will take a more severe beating. Anytime you can identify your target without damage to yourself or 'risk' is a good thing. Good idea? No. Great idea? Yes. |
