Buy a bigger and brighter one, that way if you ever find it you will have two nice flash lights.

Look into the beam, you are getting very sleepy...

"You want a 9P!"

"You deserve a 9P!"

"You will buy a 9P!"

When I snap my fingers you will awake and place your order.

Untill nc987 can prove to the CPF that he is a responsible flashaholic, he should not have posession of any light better than a Ray-O-Vac 2xD flashlight. In fact he should have me keep his remaining lights for safe keeping untill he finds that poor little 6P.

Well ive got a U2, L5, M3T, KL6 head, both winelights, but the 6P was my all around light i used and got beat up on, I just have no clue where it could have gone as I always usually put it away, i think it will find its way home, if not ill get a 9P....

Why not go ahead and get the 9P and another 6P? That way you'll have the all around use 6P and the workhorse when in need with the 9P. . .

I lost 4 6Ps—2 of which I'm sure was stolen (that wasn't the only thing missing from my bag) when I was in college. Also lost the M2 and a 9N. Since these incidents, I've replaced them and added more to my stash collection. . .

Hope it your 6P turns up some day!

I was going to say... look in the glovebox of your truck. Mine seems to be some sort of vortex that always attracts flashlights and my checkbook. I don't know what the deal is but whenever I can't find a flashlight, or my checkbook, they are always in the glovebox! :shrug:

You might want to get your dad some 123s. If your feeling generous, you might want to get him a SC1 and a spare P60.

My Ultra-G's been missing for months. Wish I could find it--it's either in the house or was stolen by a guest. Can't bring myself to buy another since I know it'll turn up. Guess I'll have to stick with the 9P and Magcharger.

The 9P is a great choice.

Sorry to hear about your 6P. I lost my first 9P I had and I know what it's like to search everywhere and not find it. I replaced the light with another 9P, it's one of my favorite Surefires.

Flashlights should come with distress GPS beacons for when they become lost.

Maybe a tweeter to find it by sound via remote control.
