Can't wait to see some of this years coolness. Anyone know when the catalogs will become available to order?

Now that'd be nice.
UB3T INVICTUS 400-2 lumens in 8 steps plus strobe, SOS, and all off setting.

Anyone else to confirm this?

but the SureFire UB3 Invictus is on the market? I have not found anywhere!:shakehead

No, it's all about hope and vaporware.

Haven't heard any mention of a new L1 either. Drats!

So whats up guys? Is there really not much new this year?

I'm with you all on hoping Surefire release some new and interesting models soon.

I keep seeing how much people who use them seem to love Surefire lights. On paper, the current batch don't look to impressive in terms of lumens/runtime, but that doesn't take into account optics and TIR reflectors.

I'd really like to get a Surefire to see what all the fuss is about but none of the current models are really doing it for me in terms of the styling of the light, except maybe the Outdoorsman lights.

So here's hoping we see some new stylish lights coming out soon!

Let's hope the Shot Show guys give us some good news.. and pics yes

Who cares what they present on the SHOT show, print in new shiny catalogs, and don't release the following year? Let's discuss something we can actually buy.

It's all about end user experience. A lot of lights are made or broken about the intangible "feel" of using them. That's what I am shooting for in my reviews.

Interesting defoglesong. According to that they will have a 350 lumen hight output version running of two CR123's. Maybe that opens up the door for a high output version of the L5 or something new.

How about a 2-cell 200+ Lumen OTF light you could protect yourself with? Wait... they upgraded the E2DL to that level recently - guess we know one 2010 catalog entry. Next, a 5 hr on high E1b...

I never know what to expect (or even believe) from Surefire lately. Not sure if some items are trial balloons or simply vapor-tech. I believe they will produce a new item once I see it's in the stores.

But the ever hopeful side of me sure could wrap itself around a M720L!
