    Question for LEOs re: Tactical UI preference

    +1 on what dano said re. UI. For me, SL20X in the squad, SF E2DL on my belt, and a SF 6P with Malkoff drop-in on the rifle.

    I'm looking for a UV light for detecting pet urine stains and I'm considering this Streamlight. Anyone have any experience with it, either good or bad?

    Quality Hard-Use EDC light for farmer?

    Try a Surefire E2DL. Lots of holsters available and it seems to fit almost all of your criteria. If you want something a little smaller and with less lumens try the Surefire E1B.

    Just Found My Long-Lost SF ORIGINAL 6P! What to do?

    Seriously? I'm still using an original 6P (best guess, probably '91 or '92 vintage) with a Malkoff drop in on my rifle on a daily basis. It's got lots of battle scars and scratches on it. If it actually has collector value, should I replace it with a newer one?

    Our very own Gene Malkoff

    That may be my fault. Both magazines are edited by Roy and Suzi Huntington (husband and wife) and I sent en email to Suzi regarding an editorial she wrote on flashlights. I praised my Malkoffs and she replied that she wasn't familiar with them, but would check them out. The American Cop bit...

    3:15 AM last night

    Like varmint, I live in a rural area of Texas, and on the two occasions that someone has banged on my door in the middle of the night I've responded just as he did. Grab a bright light, one of those things DM51 doesn't want mentioned, and out the back door to circle around the house and come up...

    Spotting Deer.

    To answer your question I've used several HID spotlights for night hunting. The drawbacks are the size/weight, and the 3-5 second ramp up time for the HID to reach full power. What has worked better for me are 3xCR123 throwers like the SF M3LT and a Malkoff Hound Dog XM-L. Although both are...

    Streamlight Ultra Stinger LED upgrade

    I bought a Terralux drop in for my Ultrastinger and can't say that I'm terribly impressed by it.

    Best EDC carry light?

    I stand corrected. I was thinking Rotary. Sorry.

    Best EDC carry light?

    The OP wants a pocket clip. Otherwise, the HDS would have been my recommendation, too.

    Best EDC carry light?

    With those three criteria, it's hard to beat the E1B.

    Suggestions for Multi-purpose Hunting Flashlight

    How much weight are you willing to carry? Your desire for 800+ lumens along with the ability to go to less than 10 lumens really limits your choices. Neither of my hunting lights meets all your criteria, but I carry a Malkoff Hound Dog XM-L and a Surefire E2D LED in my hunting bag.

    looking for info on speed holster

    I'm afraid I can't offer any help on your search for a speed holster for a flashlight. However, my curiosity overwhelms me. What kind of work do you do that you'd carry a flashlight as a weapon? And how do you use a light as a weapon? Like a kubotan or yawara?

    Only buying one flashlight, which one?

    I've thought about this in terms of "If I could only have one flashlight....." For me, if I could only have ONE it would be my SureFire E2DL.
