    Surefire tactician

    Is the SF Tactician in stock anywhere? I can't tell if it's backordered on surefire.com or not. Thanks! -- Frank

    Preflash with foursevens flashlights

    I have a QTAA that has preflash. But I've had it a few years, don't remember which generation LED is in it. But a Turbo-X and a neutral-white QT2L-X I bought later have no pre-flash. I just ordered a new Maelstrom MM-X and I'm keeping my fingers crossed... -- Frank

    malkof/ streamlight stinger drop in

    My original Stinger did not have the orange o-ring in the reflector, and the hole for the bulb was to small for the LED in the Malkoff drop in. Thankfully, the Stinger I got from my buddy did have this and is compatible. Kind of makes it hard to come up with a one-size-fits-all solution.

    malkof/ streamlight stinger drop in

    Well, not too long after I posted that and emailed him, I got a phone call from Gene Malkoff. After a few minutes, Gene had me up and running. Evidently, there are some differences in the Stingers over the years, and Gene is working on straightening these issues out. My particular problem was...

    malkof/ streamlight stinger drop in

    Well, the saga continues. A buddy of mine is a fellow flashlight nut and he came over last night. After a little horse-trading, I came in to possession of a newer Stinger among other things. We charged up this Stinger, got it working with the standard xenon bulb just fine. However my Malkoff...

    I guess not.

    malkof/ streamlight stinger drop in

    I ordered a Malkoff MDSTG for my old Stinger, and it arrived yesterday. I pulled my old Stinger off the shelf, and it looks like the power supply, charger sleeve, and probably the battery stick as well are fried. Power supply is putting out 19.5v instead of 12-13 volt. The charger sleeve is...

    The SureFire P2X-B "Fury" 500lu flashlight thread

    Great Pics! It lists the bezel diameter as 1.375 inches. What is the length and diameter of the body? -- Frank

    The SureFire P2X-B "Fury" 500lu flashlight thread

    This looks like it could be my next best duty flashlight. Does anyone know if it will fit the SF V70 holster? I haven't seen any specs on the diameter of the body, only the head. Does anyone know for sure the body diameter, other than the speculation I've read here and there? -- Frank

    If you had to give up all your LED flashlights but one, which would you keep?

    It would have to be my work light, a SureFire G2Z with Malkoff M61. It gets used the most. -- Frank

    Malkoff M31 on my AR-15

    Your E1B/VME/Z68 is exactly what I have for my EDC! Love that combination, except I went with the M31 instead of the "W". That light mount is great! Currently I am using a G2/M60F on my rifle. I may need to look into your idea a little further. Great Pics! -- Frank

    Malkoff M31

    You have more patience than I have! Thanks for doing this for us. To summarize, 40 to 45 minutes of regulated output, and then a loooong gradual drop-off? Which brand primary did you use? I just received my M31 yesterday. Hoping to do some of my own "testing" tonight with a local CPFer. Thanks...

    Malkoff M31

    Okay, I finally decided (i.e. my wife gave in) and ordered an M31 to replace the M30W in my EDC light. I like the M30W a lot, but the if the beam profile on the M31 is like my M61s, I think I'll have a winner. Besides, who couldn't use a few extra lumens? Right? Unfortunately, the Evil Queen of...
