    HID guys spend a TON

    Judging by what's happened in the last decade with LEDs I sure hope not.

    SureFire Inflation

    I am lucky enough to have an excellent source for new surefires at below eBay and Bst prices. Otherwise I would never pay msrp. Craigslist is also a great place for surefires I scored a m6 a year ago for 180 and a u2 for a liitle less. It's not often they show up but then again not too many are...

    SureFire Inflation

    I remember the good old days when u could buy surefires online at great prices far below msrp. As much as I love their lights there is plenty of high quality competition now. They are gradually pricing themselves out of even niche users like us. But their continued innovation keeps me coming...

    Lost: 4 tritium Raw NS

    Sorry for your loss! its one of my favorites! To the normal person sadly it will be a disposable light as they probably have no way to charge it, or find spare batteries for it!

    Streamlight 12ga mount for Supertac

    Thanks! I think I'll be picking up the 618LF I just checked Streamlights site, I think its a mistake and the 12ga mount provides rails for TLR/X300

    Your "Bump in the night" flashlight.

    X300 attached to a Springfield XD45 plus 3D Mag w/drop in. One day I'll pull the trigger on a 618FA, I just wish they would have a LED replacement for it already! Or if Fenix would make a dedicated shotgun fore-end for the most popular shotgun of all time. Edit: Al pointed in the right...

    I won the SureFire True Stories Contest for May!

    I will be submitting a Surefire story soon, my sister decided to go hike Yosemite with 13 of her coworkers/friends and in the group there were only 2 flashlights. (Both Surefires, one was the L2 I gave my sister, and another Surefire from another guy in the group). I'll add details later, but...

    Knife & Light pics. (Identify your images!)

    Re: Knife & Light pics. Why is it that all the coolest things are $$$$$! That Strider is beautiful! How much and where? (Total knife noob) Is that a one off custom folder? Why can't they make $100 knives look like the SnG or GB....I can't justify a Strider at this point...I might change my...

    May need a 12-step program

    Lights are cheap compared to my other hobby, guns! Good thing I live in California, or else I'd have a lot more guns with magazines that hold more than 10 Think a box of CR123s are pricey? Wait till you start shooting! .45s .223s, and .308 start to add up. I will probably have to start...

    Girls uses Gladius strike bezel to good advantage

    I would not hesistate to shoot someone threatening me with a knife or any other deadly weapon. Like the saying goes, I rather get judged by 12 than carried by six. If someone had a knife and I had a flashlight..unless I had no choice I would get the heck out of there. :)

    Add a beamshaper (assuming the FM16 fits) to the Invictus and you have a wide angle beam + 400 lumens!

    Ever met a girl who was impressed with your light?

    On my multilevel lights I usually keep them on the lowest setting. Last night she turned on my Nitecore while reading a book and she said ''What the heck hunny, this is weak!'' I said tighten the head. It went into full power and all those lumens hit her book and bounced back into her eyes :)...

    Thanks for the links to the catalogs! I especially liked the pages with the people behind the scenes. Very anxiously looking forward to a bright year. At approx 1'' longer than the current U2 for 4x the light :) Might have to pick up a KL9 as well depending on how long it puts out 350...

    SUREFIRE SHOT SHOW REPORT

    Any specs on the KL9? I just might have to keep my M6 I think I will be getting the 400L Invictus + beamshaper. I'd pass on the zoom function for 400 LED lumens out the front :)

    SUREFIRE SHOT SHOW REPORT

    Thank you sir..you are the man! After receiving my U2 today I too agree about the 2 stage tailcap statement. While 6 levels is nice. I do like having super fast access to low and MAX. Depending on how useful the wide beam is I might just end up with a UB2 for the full 400 lumens :) and plus a...

    Anyone know how the focus is on the U2A is? When you go from spot to flood does the bezel move up and down or is it fixed like some L series Canon glass :)?
