It started with a yellow G2. I liked it. Excellent glove box light.



So I bought an extra, a black one. But they weren't perfect. When the yellow one was stolen, I got a KX4 for the black one. Back in the glove box it went. Ah, perfect! :thumbsup:



Oh, Cabela's is blowing out the P60L G2Ls for half price??? Better get some extras. :naughty: What? Three G2Ls now? Oh yes!



Who else loves the G2L?? Got a stash of 'em? Post them!



Here are mine -- -- --

Count me in! I've owned all three interations...the G2L w/ Nitrolon Bezel (BIG mistake on SF's part due to heat sinking), then the later version with the aluminum bezel, and finally, the third version with the KX4.
 
Ug.. another thread that lost a lot of good pictures...

Here we go again!

My Green G2 with stainless bezel ring. Gotta protect that head! (Good all around advice btw)

A G2 with a McClickie switch and a Nailbender 2 mode drop-in is a very fine light. Does it all. I prefer yellow so I can fined it>

I bought at least 8 of them from Cabelas and gave them away for Christmas 2010. Kept two for myself, a yellow and black.
 
Love them. Had 5 of them at one time.
Will be one of the all-time great designs for durability and design.
 
I never thought I would, but I decided to keep a G2 for the heck of it and now I love it... I put an old matte Z59 and matte Z44 on it along with a P60L bulb, a flip up red filter (the cheap one, not the FM35) and some Surefire primaries and it's become my garage toolbox light ever since.
 
Got a pic of this flip up red filter? Id be interested in checking one out... Or maybe where ya got it? It would be pretty slick on my red G2.

You know cheap is my kinda price shao!

Capt, scour the MP for an F35. Or google it. The "F" Series filters were the old rubber ones that just flipped up, while the "FM" Series were designed for the Millenium series lights, and were plastic-calmp on style filters. A search on Google for Surefire F35 will give you a good idea, and you could post a WTB for one in MP...there's still alot of these old filters floating around.

Cap,
Here are some pics... She may not be the brightest... and she may not be the prettiest, but she sure is handy!

Thanks for the pics Shao, I need one of those.

Sounds good, but the only thing I could find in the MP was a thread from 2008. (in fact it was YOUR post!) Also google searches displayed THIS thread as the number one result and a bunch of the F-35 Aircraft... I guess these are more rare than anticipated now? I searched for most variations I could think of:

Surefire F35
Surefire F 35
Surefire F-35
Surefire F35 filter
etc...

Thanks for the proper name of the piece though, I'll post up a WTB and see what comes down the pipe.


EDIT:

Wait, do you mean F36? The F34,36,37 (clear, red, blue) are the right size?

EDIT AGAIN:

Oh, i found THIS post that seems to be pretty comprehensive but looks like it would be the F24, 26,27 that would fit the G2 as its the same size as the 6P?
