    Stainless Peak McKinley 7 LED UV - A Home Run

    I'll keep it short and sweet--the form, fit and finish puts this light in the "soon to be a classic" catagory. It's a great size for hand and pocket as well as being flawlessly machined. I like the heft of stainless steel and you won't feel any remorse about it getting scuffed up by coins and...

    Clicky -- I Don't Get it ?

    Clicky -- I Don\'t Get it ? Is it just me? I really prefer a twisty--particularly the SureFire twisty. It had a handy button for tactical use and just torque it down for constant on. Now they don't make it for the E series lights anymore

    Slaying the Beast with Your Light Sabre

    Has anyone ever... say... stopped a charging wild boar or thwarted a radical Islamic terrorist with their EDC photon cannon? Just curious because all I ever use mine for is scaring rabbits, squirrels and the occasional cat while walking the dog. OK, maybe once in a while I'll shine it in the...
