Perhaps I didn't plan on any other lights than a UA2 just because it was a perfect match for my needs.
And if SureFire did need such a lot of time designing other products than the UA2 and UB2 I would recommend them to stick to the plan and finnish first products first.
I don't think SureFire works that way, but you do suggest something like that.
The 2008 catalogue was promising so much usuable lights.
Now the make some other lights with leds, like the M3TL and some aviators, that are no big deal to me.
I don't use a light tactical, I want a do-everything-perfect-in-my-daily-life-light
and none of the lights shown at this shot show do such a thing.
A lot of people can come out now and tell me we are no big market share, we don't make the cash-machine for SF make the ka-ching sound,
but I just don't like being told porkies as the summer 2008 orso, somewhere Q1 2009, just wait what the Shot Show 2009 will bring and all the other stories about when it could possibly arrive.
Don't misunderstand me, if they make a concept, a prototype or something just to show off, I wouldn't mind it, i would be drewling all over it, respect the lead they have in technology and development
and "happily but impatiently" wait another year or so to see it emerging on the market.
But if you state it in your catalogue as a product that's not smart to say the least. And after waiting year it would be good manners to tell you have a delay in production/development/etc.etc.etc.
I'm not insane and I can understand if you are not perfect happy with one of your products that you don't want to release it yet.
Just tell me, don't treat me as a 5 year old kid.
I know, I'm being grumpy, but I'm really disappointed.
