New Maglite 3rd Generation 2D/3D - 524 + 625 lumens stock!

[CelticCross74]

Loving the new 4xD ML300! Yes is MUCH brighter than the 3D which themselves have great output off of alkaline cells. I wish Mag would make an ML300LX version of BOTH their 6 D cell ML300 as well as the new 1000 lumen 4xD ML300. My MLLX versions of the new Gens are MUCH nicer. They have HA III anodizing and an awesome grenade grip texture on the bodies.

Thanks! The 4 cell size has always been my preference for D Mags....will have to get one of these at some point, I was also kind of waiting to see if they came out with a LX version as well. The 6 cells are cool, but a bit on the big and heavy side for me.....though I would be real tempted if there were a 6D LX.

4D is back?

Just when I thought I was cured.... Dratz....

😂 The struggle is real Mike. Hey do by chance have any experience with the newer pineapple grip mags? I've never handled one. They look cool but the "classic" Mag finish always gets me in the end.

GG, I've not seen one in real life nor handled one.

I like my Maglites like I like my bannana peels...
Slippery. :naughty:

I have a 3-D and have never wanted for more light or throw when I'm using it.

I like my 3D and think its plenty bright. However I want to pick up a 4D because of its size and weight. When I work late shifts I like to carry my 4D incandescent because of its weight and size.

The LX versions are real nice, particularly if you have a few other Mags and want something with a bit different look and feel. If you like the look, the fact that the LX's are hard ano'd and a bit grippier makes them well worth the few $ extra.

The 3D is pretty impressive and very useful. I like it a lot and think they did a very good job with it.

There is just something about carrying a big mag and feeling safe. I have a new 3D with a SS impact bezel on it and a carbide point/window breaker on the tail. When out for a walk or checking things in my yard I'm good 😊

Love to see a pic thermal guy! SS bezel sounds cool

Wish I knew how.posting pictures has become a real headache anymore. It is pretty cool an as i say feel very safe while walking with it.You know I own HDS and MALKOFF lights and as far as reliablity goes they are the best. But if I had to walk down a dark trail at nights in my woods I'd have my mag in my hand no question.

Why is that...is it the heft of the light boosts more condfidence as a defence weapon, or is it run time or something else?

 

[thermal guy]

You know it's all the above with 600 plus lumes and a pretty good spill to light up everything in sight there's nothing that's going to sneak up on me and my 3D with SS bezel would seriously help if I was ever attached. My other lights are super rugged and bright and dependable and I never leave the house without them but if push came to shove the mag is a far superior light to use as a club/defense weapon. And ya it will run forever if need be.

I agree with you on the carrying a big mag.

Where did you find the SS impact bezel? I do have one of those bust a cap tail ends in my amazon cart for both my 3D ML300 and my 4D INCAN.

 

[thermal guy]

I can email pictures if any are interested

 

[gurdygurds]

Yes please, send away. My Email is same as PayPal. And I agree that a Mag gives some reassurance on a walk at night.

I can email pictures if any are interested

I got it many moons ago on a mag I bought here in b/s/t.never seen another one like it.

The new 4D ML300 is still impressing me very much! I finally got used to having to unscrew the tail cap in certain ways in order to change modes. The STROBE out of ANY of the new Gens is amazing! The tint out of my new 4D ML300 is leaning into the bluer part of the LED spectrum but that is just fine.

Pics-
Still have 2 new in their still never opened boxes 4D ML300's. Still have a good assortment of new optical quality glass FOR D Mags. But I have SO MANY big Mags already. Not really sure what to do.

Will upload pics when my photoB stops crashing in a bit

I've had my 3D for about a month now. Haven't had to replace the batteries yet, I use this light pretty frequently at work. I've made some upgrades to mine. I replaced the stock lens with a Weltool glass lens, and replaced the tailcap with a Bust-A-Cap glass breaker tailcap. I'm a sucker for larger lights, I'm going to have to pick up a 4D model even though 625 lumen is plenty bright for my needs.
