I recently bought one of the "NV" (night vision) versions of the First Light Tomahawk after checking one out that a buddy had.
It it very well-made and quite bright. Works very well with my PVS-14 in IR mode also.
I was considering buying another one for regular use (non NV model) but have found the manufacturer's literature very ambiguous and confusing as to which models allow *independent* use of various LED colors, one at a time.
For instance, their "MC" (multi-color) version is supposed to be available in red and green and also in red and blue LEDs. However, a seller on ebay shows the MC version in red only (no blue and no green available on that light).
I also would like to have the strobe option, but am not sure which models have it. I think their comparison sheet showed a couple of models with it available...not sure if the MC version was one of them.
Anyway, the vest mount option works very nicely and the UV task light is neat too.
Wondering if anyone else has bought one of these lights and what you think about them. I saw another thread on here, but it didn't really cover which models have separate colors of LEDs available. The one I got has red and green available, but only at the same time. I don't really care for that. Yes, I know why they did it...I still want separate colors available like I have on my Kroma mil-spec.
