Sorry for my ignorance but what does TID stands for?
What I was thinking is that if I can just buy an aggressive bezel ring; put it on the Arc 4. When I fly, I just put the original ring back, leave the aggressive ring in the check-in luggage and when I arrive to destination, I just put the aggressive ring back on the light and use it for self-defence if necessary.
As for the aggressive bezel, it is also used for when you put the light face down; you would immediately know if the light was accidentally left on. That’s the main reason why the SF L4 has the small indent. I just find that without the indent (even if it is small) the Arc 4 was less well design. Bigger indent would be better because you can actually use it as a self defence weapon.
The aggressive bezel is strictly for self-defence. An attacker would do more damage stabbing someone with a 1 inch knife rather than an aggressive bezel. Can you imagine trying to rob someone with an aggressive bezel and tell them “Give me your wallet or I’ll stab you with my aggressive bezel flashlight!”

No, you don't need one. People are just making an aggressive bezel, not mounting a knife at the end of the light.

I live in the U.K. the next thing you know flashlights will be banned here if this policy of making lights look more aggressive continues.

Are you allow carrying a 1 inch Swiss army knife in UK? I have been carry one on my key chain for over 20 years. Also, for Hong-Kong (where the aggressive bezel originated), peoples are not allowed to own any firearm at all and they are much more restricted than North America. Knife is marginal and an aggressive bezel flashlight is allowed.
Edit: to think about it, a 6D Mag can do more damage as a weapon...
