Your "Bump in the night" flashlight.

[JasonC8301]

:laughing: Watch out, however, as Glock fans can be, how do I put this delicately, a bit sensitive about their choice of firearms...

LOL, I am a Glock fan but not a fanatic as in end all gun. I have one Glock, the 19 and managed to wreck the slide which Glock replaced in the time frame of 5-6 weeks. What did I use in place of it? Either my HK USP 9mm or Kimber Custom TLE II .45ACP. My next gun? 99.99999% sure it is going to be a Sigarms 229R Elite in .40SW just to round out my selection of 3 common calibers (9, 40, and 45.) Another .38 special. is on the way too but its ofr more of a recreational purpose...

The guys with the rifle's and carbine, oh boy I wish I could have the one I want but more of a liability in the tight perimeter of my house in relation to other houses.

As far as the P60 style drop-ins are concerned. No one makes a better drop-in than Gene Malkoff. The color rendition is excellent, the output is great. If you want to invest your hard earned money, a Malkoff drop-in is the way to go. I have 2 of them. One is in my Surefire M2, and the other is in my Surefire C2. As soon as they are available I will be buying more of Gene's products.

X5 all the way (Then again, the X5 is my only flashlight over $10..) Still, it's a great little flashlight, with a beautiful flood beam and long battery life.

No kidding Chevro - of course they say don't bring a knife to a gun fight, and don't bring a pistol to a rifle fight, so if you're going to be armed you might as well be armed at the top of the civilian pyramid!

I think the AK is probably the most universal home defense gun there is. Somewhat long range capability if you need to fend off a horde of charging zombies. High capacity with all different sizes of magazines and drums available. Fairly heavy hitting round. Short overall length for use in a building. Fairly low recoil. I think it's the best compromise to cover all bases.

I'm thinking about getting a bump in the night light. I already have an A2 which handles most of my needs, but I'm thinking a 3 cell light with a nice bright output for duty both inside the house as well as outside might make a welcome addition.

Being partial to SF, I'm looking at the M3 and a search here has given positive feedback on the light. Question ... how well does this light do inside the house in terms of lighting up a room?

I have tried out the light at a local store and found it well-balanced and good fiting in the hand. I didn't like the C3. Another option would be a Z2 with the P61 lamp, but that's nearly half the lumens ... plus probably half the cost.

Mag 3D upgraded with a Terralux TLE-6EX-B. Currently my brightest and biggest flashlight!

 

[PPGMD]

Surefire X200 on my weapon, and my Surefire G2Z with a Gene Malkoff head. About to buy a Surefire X300 along with a pressure switch to replace the X200.

 

[Secur1]

I keep on my night stand a Mag 3C with a P4 drop in.
In the first drawer a retractable batton and a couple of big folder knifes.

If the bump is persistant then i get out my Boxer24w (once i get it up and running again)

 

[Tempest UK]

SF M6 or M3T next to the bed, and a 6PL or A2 for smaller bumps

Hey Crenshaw, thanks for reporting the spammer who posted under Tempest UK's post; and for posting in my thread.

 

[BlueBeam22]

I always keep my 15mcp Thor near my bed or somewhere in my bedroom.

Mine was my M4 Devastator until 2 days ago when I received my new M6 :devil: I don't know though, I still like my M4 even though it's front heavy. I think the length has something to do with it? Should my Glock jam--which by the way it won't--I have the reach with my M4 :shrug:

 

[Solscud007]

M6 for me. and its a toss up between the gladius for the strobe or my P60L (6P or G2Z) they sort of rotate which ever i feel like bringing to the side table. but yeah I agree with everyone here about the M6.

Im a little cautious about bringing an airsoft gun to the scenario as some one here mentioned. granted it has the look and you can **** it but push come to shove I think I would just rather blind/disorient the lurker and leave the scene. no need to get into confrontation. There are a lot of rules and laws about shooting people. jsut because they are robbing you, it could turn the other way. Like "did you have a means of escape?" if you shoot them they can sue you. its retarted I know but better safe than sorry.

 

[woodrow]

A fenix T1. It is more than bright enough for inside work and for me, it works fine next to a pistol. Mine has also been utterly reliable. But I am sure their are eighty other lights I could be comfortable using as long as they were utterly glitch free.

 

[Lunal_Tic]

Currently M6 with Lumen Factory bulb and 3xLi-ions. Really like this set up.
