Old school Surefires

[Team Member]

Recently I´ve been fortunate to get hold of some older models from Surefire. And they have been in very good conditions.

So now I have a 6P and a 6R.

But today the mailman delivered a small package containing a MINT...

I couldn´t belive what I saw when I opened the package. The 3P was like NEW. Amazing...

It has served as a back-up flashlight inside someones BoB. And that BoB have not seen much use..

With the 3P it also came the original pouch and a spare bulb, NIB...

This "old-school Surefire" bug has really bitten me...

Very nice!

 

[DaFABRICATA]

That is a very nice 3P!!!


well....since the topic is old Surefire.....

PICS SOON

 

[monkeyboy]

Wow! that's nice DaFab

I'd imagine that those battery tubes would open up new possibilities in matching surefire lego. Can you get a 18650 in there? I guess it would be sacrilege to bore it out.

I still haven´t recovered from the last time you posted this pic...

It´s really hard to handle that there are HA 6Ps out there but what is even more hard handle is the fact that there is a true OD Surefire on that pic..

So there must be some more of those babies...the hunt has begun..

How 'bout a 6P still in the wrapper!!
Its killing me to open it!!!:hairpull:

I wonder if there is a way to tell what color 6P is in there:shrug:......no stickers on the side or anything:thinking:

If you send it to me, I could find out for you and let you know, lol.

Those are very nice...

I was lucky enough to recently pick up this LIKE-NEW 6P Classic. It is in absolute MINT condition :naughty:

What's the approximate vintage of these 3- and 6-Ps? I'm kind of a noob and the history of all this interests me.

Thanks.

 

[Solscud007]

wow pretty cool stuff. I like the 3P but where would you find a bulb for that?

 

[Sgt. LED]

SF still sells them as they fit into some of their weapon lights.

I have a Mint mint 3p with a Malkoff M30 in it. Just not quite enough nerve to carry it around though. Maybe I ought to let it go?

 

[Bimmerboy]

Uugghhh... you guys suck!

I say that with all due respect. :thumbsup:

Much as I like almost all SF's, these "ole skool" units be da' shiznizzle. So elegant.

I'll join da' club one o' deese days.

Damn, always wanted a 3p...Just gotta find a user, not something ultra minty. Nice lights Team Member and Dafab.

 

[ttran97]

Very nice vintage lights! The only one that I have is my 9P...my very first Surefire that I bought years and years ago. Round body and "Laser Products" tailcap. I'm the original owner, too. Too bad I don't have the round bezel...

Very nice. Don't open it! I have quite a few unopened lights myself.

 

[flashfan]

I don't know if this qualifies as "old school," but...

 

[ampdude]

It certainly does. I've heard of that model, but never seen a picture of one before. That's definitely one that belongs in the rare Surefires thread.

:wow:
