  1. Been a fan of Streamlight for many years,as you stated"best bang for your buck",I am very much interested in the new Holosun light that works in conjunction w/their Iris laser/IR illuminator. If what i've seen is correct,the laser/IR illuminator & the light are separate,both mount to your rifle,& have a switch to plug into both units,& both can be bought together for about $900/1000,which to me is fairly reasonable for a laser/IR illuminator & light. I also under stand they can be bought separately.

  2. Do the new HLX Pro's have the flicker issue the old railmounts have? I have a couple of railmount 2's that I've had to o-ring mod, was thinking about grabbing one of the new pros, if not an AWLS.

  3. Have you looked at all into the offerings from Tacticon Armament? I have their BattleTorch V3 on my training rifle and it seems pretty decent.

    (Granted, I have not stress tested it or had any other lights on hand to compare it to. My opinion basically doesn't count in that regard 😂)

  4. I’ve had my SL hlx rail mount for a good while (3-4 years i think) and the only thing I’ve broken on it is the lens. To be fair i don’t do a lot of night shooting and only use the switch when i dry fire in the garage or actually get to shoot at night. I’d say most people are in the same boat as me though so it’s probably more than good enough for most.

    I’m excited for the new holosun rifle light would love to see it vs the new streamlight light.

  5. My HLXs have universally had short lived pressure switches…I love the cloud defensives but they're ridiculously expensive and the proprietary switch is sturdy, but kind of uncomfortable.

    …And then my cheap $98 OLIGHT Javelot goes and beats both the Rein 1.0 and 2.0 in throw. It was depessing.

  6. I have more Streamlights than any other. They are hands down best bang for the buck. Though I'm not a fan of the proprietary battery on their new HLX 2.0 so I'll never be using those.
    Something that wasn't mentioned I wanted to bring up, is if you're wanting to use a pressure pad that requires the surefire style connection, don't be discouraged if you have a streamlight. Arisaka makes a tailcap adapter that will allow you to use any of the plethora of aftermarket and surefire branded pressure pads.

  7. Are we gonna see a swampfox tomahawk 2 1-4x vs trijicon tr24 accupoint 1-4x in the near future?
    If the 1x is as good as advertised, it would be amazing with the sub 400 dollar price.

  8. I have two different M600DF's, with the SR07 pressure pads, and both suck ass. Giant spill, not great range, the lights have an intermittent issue where they turn on bright then quickly flicker down to barely visible. But only sometimes. All of that plus the damn price, yeah my HLX's have had no issues.
    Maybe SF's pistol lights are better but at this point I'm not even going to try them.
