Hi everyone
I live in a house with three other brothers plus my dad. We all EDC various things but one thing that has becoming increasingly common is the discussion on who owns that flashlight. I EDC a 4Sevens Quark Mini and so does my dad and one of my brothers. It just gets to a point where I won't be able to find the light that I had put down somewhere because one of the other guys that uses the same light has picked it up mistakenly.
We all use different knives, wallets, phones, etc.. so it is easy to tell who owns what from across the room- just flashlights are where we have to examine and be like "oh yes, I remember mine had this mark".
This has lead me to look online for a CR123 light in a different finish and everywhere I look- it seems almost non-existent. I remember HDS used to offer Cerakoted lights, now it's all gone from their website. 4Sevens used to do titanium runs fairly regularly but it looks like they have gone under and the guy that now runs it never has anything in stock. It seems like almost everyone is following the same principle of 'black aluminum, tactical looking'- unless of course you spend $500+ on a Muyshondt.
At this point I'll settle for anything in gray or green and even a mid-priced titanium EDC light!
Any suggestions or input is much appreciated.
