I'm currently running an older Surefire Centurion C2 with an older Malkoff drop-in (XP-G).
The light works great but the McGizmo clicky in it is a bit too sensitive for a rifle light (perfect for a handheld light), the mounting location on the C2 is not ideal, and the older Malkoff just doesn't reach out there like I'd like a rifle light to. It's also a rather expensive light to keep bolted to the rifle when I could use it more un-attached.
I'm looking for a 1" weapon light in the $50 range that has around 1000 lumens on 2xCR123. I've looked at the G2X from Surefire but want more light than it provides if possible, more throw would be great too.
I need a forward clicky and ideally only a single super bright mode. No low modes, and no blinky modes. I'd be OK if the light had a UI where loosening the head gave a low mode.
I'm tempted by the Niteforce P30 but don't love that the secondary switch could be bumped and put me into moonlight mode. Any durable and bright single mode options out there?
The light is mounted far forward, so a large head shouldn't have any issues clearing the rail:
