Just ordered M3 combatlight!!!

[KDOG]

I ordered the M3 (hopefully the new one with crenelated bezel) from MeridianTactical. But hey charged me shipping for some reason even though it said free shipping. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif Anyway, I emailed them so hopefully it gets straightened out. Can't wait to get my grubby little hands on it!!!

Nice light! Wish I could afford to splurge on one of them /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif. Chris is a good guy, I'm sure he'll get you fixed up!

I have one and its my best light. I run pila's in it now so I can use it alot. Enjoy.

Thanks

Sadly, I'm cancelling the order. It was an impulse buy and I think I should wait a while longer, work some extra overtime and then buy it. Dang. But I WILL it have in a few months or so...now I'm depressed, sigh... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

AAAAAA.... go for it!! Get it while it's in stock-you might wait a long time otherwise.

You'd never regret it-M3 is my EDC. I don't mess around! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/xyxgun.gif

The M3 is a very handy light when you need a real light. Plenty of horsepower without being really big.

I run mine on Pilas too.

 

[maverick]

I could get you an M3 for less.

 

[chamenos]

ditto to what chop said. i sold mine, and i ended up getting another one /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif i haven't done the pila upgrade yet though...i don't use it often enough to warrant it.

I love my M3 that I got from Chris at Meridian.

One thing that I don't like:

The Surefire Combat Holster. I expected it to be as good as the combat holster that fits my g2z perfectly. The holster for the M3 is a VEEEEEEEEEERY tight fit. Not useful at all.

Something that I am interested in at the moment is the pilas for my M3 that runs on HOLA. I want to be absolutely sure that it is a perfect match before I get the pilas for my M3. I already have pilas on the way for my new L4 that also hasn't arrived yet /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif If the pilas do work great in the M3, then I think I will be certainly using my M3 a lot more /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinser2.gif

The M3 is definitely a keeper in my opinion /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

hey just a question, why do you guys buy from Meridian when they charge the retail price when you could get it much cheaper at tadgear?

 

[chamenos]

if i'm not wrong the listed and actual prices at meridian tactical are different. surefire apparently has some policies that prohibit their dealers from advertising prices lower than the MSRP.

 

[maverick]

I found most of their prices to be the same as RRP.

Can you guys residing outside the States order Surefire lights? I thought SF actually prohibit dealers from shipping flashlights out of the US?

[kakster]

Supreme co.
I think these guys are the distributor for Surefire in Asia.

 

[pjandyho]

Thanks kakster, I know about that but Supremeco is always out of stock for many of the items. People like Maverick who is residing in HK can vouch for that. If Surefire wants us to order from the respective distributor then their bloody supply better be good. What sort of customer service is this? SF do not allow international orders and US dealers are not allowed to ship out of the US, that leaves us with Supremeco who is not helping to make things better and who is at the suffering end? We consumers!!! If SF wants to do things like this they better bloody get their supplies out to Supremeco fast at least!

I'll get it, I just want to wait till after memorial day because i get paid double time and a half for that day which is enough to get the light by itself. I don't understand the "pila upgrade". What is that?

Silverfox helps me out with shipping SF's to Australia. There's probably someone on CPF who's willing to help you out.

Thank you Geoff.

 

[maverick]

I just sold an M3 (crenelated bezel) to WS in Singapore for $228. Anyone else interested? I might be able to get another one....

 

[MeridianTactical]

You can always email me for a better Surfire price that is on the site...

All dealers "should have MSRP" on the site, what happend to be the actual selling price is a different matter...

As for the Free shipping, he did not use the coupon code, but it would have been fixed since it was a CPFfree shipping offer.
