Downloaded the .pdf.......perhaps Leupold will leverage their successes in the optical shooting field?
Looks of high machining quality, which would follow their scope and spotting scope production.
Just as an observation, it seems that a flashlight "line" would fit with their existing production and the optical engineering might enhance lighting design?
My opinion is that the modular system "MX" pictured, is very limited (no one cell body) and might be of limited interest to many that use flashlights "professionally" or for specific use? Cost would be a factor in complete modular system, and in defining specific tasks for different modular parts.
Price, availability (what channels will they use for distribution?), performance will obviously be determiners for any successes.
Just an opinion, but compared to the market that Surefire presently has; (Government, Military, Professional including Police Fire and Construction and also the shooting, hunting, camping markets) Leupold could be a well-funded newcomer with a huge uphill battle to compete in the same markets. Surefire's focus and main product is flashlights and they already have an huge advantage in existing sales, not to speak of Engineering, Innovation, Design, Quality Control, Manufacturing AND Marketing. It will be interesting to see how these lights perform, IF they even make it to market?
