Surefire M5

[Team Member]

Surefire have had their Millenium series for awhile now and we all know the names and numbers of them.
M1
M2
M3
M3T
M4
and M6

But what happend with M5? Was there never any suitable light that could have filled up that space? Or...

And if there wheren`t any, what would you have liked to see as the M5?
...and now we are talking incans...

:thinking:....:sigh:............
Thats interesting, I haven't thought much of it...seeing that there was almost an M2D:candle:
hm...yes......:naughty:...:twothumbs

thats a good question...

 

[Gunnerboy]

Doesn't the number in that series correspond to the number of CR123A's the host requires?

 

[Illum]

so does it seem...it would make sense for all the lights surefire sport except the P series

And the L. Well, it works for L1 and L2, but not L4.

Adding a CR123A extender to M4 will make it M5 which is unbalance in weight and not practical for tactical use. However, I have done that and works perfectly with WA1166

Like FM, I add a Detonator and dummy to my M4 at times. So I guess you could call it an M5 :nana:

FM, I just received your PM. Please start up that pre-sale because I'm sure you'll get more than enough interest for another run on the holders :twothumbs

I want to know where the M8 is. I want an 8 battery M series light that puts out 700 lumens. How about a spacer for the M6 and a different battery carrier and bulb? Come on PK, use some of that magic dust.

No M8 here but I do have the newly released M7 pictured next to an E1L!

And you are probably going to mount that on your handgun


Ok, no M5 then..

 

[generic808]

Yeah, I had this on my baby Glock 26 but it was a bit front heavy :shrug: I guess it'll go onto the Mossberg 590

SureFire's numbering is something of a mystery...M1, M2, M3, M4, M6...but then L1, L2, L4, L6.



Logic got lost somewhere along the way.

I did make my feelings known to PK and others in SureFire when I found out about the L4/L5/L6/L7 naming.
SureFire appears to have got themselves back on track since then even if the models are now more complicated with additional letters being added - E2DL, G2ZL, 6PDL but they are quite straight fowardd once you know what each letter means

That in essence is a metal kendo stick for self defense. lol

 

[Outdoors Fanatic]

Dang! The title on this thread got me so excited, I thought SureFire was releasing a brand new incan light..

Please, don't do this again...

Can I mount your custom M7 on my Keltec P3AT ?

I'm not immediately familiar with "M20" - please enlighten me :thinking:
Shirley you're not referring to the M20 Barrel Clamp Mount with Dual Weaver Rails?
