I am sure that most owners barely even take it out of the house. Now if they were selling them at Target or KMart, then yea maybe some cause for concern, but you are not going to see thugs shelling out $600 smackers on a light like this.....relax worry about guns on the street, not flashlights.

I can't quite understand how one doesn't feel that one "spent" money on something just because he traded something else that he had spent money on, to obtain it.
Moreover, I don't understand why people are so averse to someone making a valid point and stating his own opinions. Sheez!

So what if he does? Is everything you own merely adequate, or do you also have some nicer things that you feel it's OK to spend extra money on?peacefuljeffrey said:I suppose that when one buys a $600 flashlight :huh2: one probably cuts open the box with a $450 Sebenza...
Who said this? Only the guy who made the trade, and he's in the best position to make this statement. Obviously he didn't need his rifle anymore. Maybe he used to like it, but it lost its glamour, and now he's got a new toy to play with. I've bought/sold many knives and a few lights for this exact reason. And it is like I didn't spend money on the new toy. For example, I just sold a bunch of knives. I liked them, but I never used them, they've lost the glamour they once had, and now I've got new toys. I don't miss the old knives, and I love my new toys. And they didn't cost me anything extra because they were funded by the old stuff I don't need anymore.I can't quite understand how one doesn't feel that one "spent" money on something just because he traded something else that he had spent money on, to obtain it.
Stating your own opinions (again and again and again) is one thing, but asserting them where they don't belong is another. jbergerud got a new toy, loves it, shows it off (after trading an AR-15 for it, and pictured next to a FNP90 on top of all this--and you're worried about the flashlight being too much a "weapon"), and you've got to make things all political. There's a place on CPF for this, and it ain't here.Moreover, I don't understand why people are so averse to someone making a valid point and stating his own opinions. Sheez!

We KNOW this. And then it probably won't be long before all people who EDC a flashlight (just like those who EDC a gun or a knife) will be looked at with suspicion. And then soon after that, we won't be allowed to take anything but Photon IIs on airliners, and they'll confiscate them on subway trains, too, during those famous "voluntary random searches."
