That's pretty neat. And they use real Surefire lamp assemblies.

Interesting how their 60 and 9p knockoffs aren't much cheaper than the real thing, yet the weaponlight is less than 1/5 the price of the real one.

I notice the "for airsoft only" text, and assume this means the cost-cutting measures were in the shock-isolation bezel, waterproofing, etc.

Frankly, I asked them why they use Surefire's direct nomenclature for their own lights while only using the lamp assembly.

You can stuff a smallblock Chevy into a kit car, or a VW engine into a sand rail, but that doesn't mean you have a Chevy or a VW. Panoz uses Ford engines, but he doesn't call his cars Fords...

I gotta admit, I like the looks of the ripoff/surefire laser module. Don't buy the Beamshot. They have the three screw adjustment. Pain in the rear to center.

I thought the "weaponlights" were for Airsoft BB guns

Oh, I wrote my post badly. What I'm sure they mean is that their lights won't stand up to the abuse of being mounted on a real firearm. That's why the weaponlight is 1/10 the cost of the real SF M500a
