hallboss 1 Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 (edited) Well that holds a 1" light correct? I would look at surefire and anything 200 lumens or brighter. One of the advantages of having a light is for one...to see, the other is to temporarily blind an opponent. To me, anything that doesn't blind, is a target...

Any 1" Flashlight with a pressure switch? Yes, any 1' light with a TAILCAP pressure switch if you want to use the push button on the back of the holder. Remote pressue switch if you want to use the side switches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gripnS12 0 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Anyone out there using this foregrip / light by chance? http://cgi.ebay.com/B-N-Sand-Foregrip-Tact...id=p3286.c0.m14 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
grandeyota 0 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Check out Fenix TK10. It's an LED light that has 2 modes 60 lumen and 225 lumen. It will fit a 1" holder. I've got an earlier version (Fenix T1) and I like it a lot. It WILL blind someone at the other end. I think an LED would hold up to 12 gauge better than a regular bulb with a filiment Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cellsworth 21 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 These days, you can get extremely bright LED lights that are ideal for mounting on small arms. Wolf Eyes High Output LED lights are very good for the money. Look at the P7-M90 Rattlesnake for retina searing brightness, or the Cree Q5 LED M90 Rattlesnake for merely blinding brightness. Both are available with pressure switch tailcaps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jsp 1 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 If you already have a Surefire G2 or 6P light, you can purchase an aftermarket lamp assembly that gives you 256 lumens of blinding white light from TNVC (Tactical Night Vision Company). If you don't have one yet, you can purchase the light with the upgraded lamp assembly installed by them. They also have multi-function tailcap switches for the various models of Surefire flashlights. Here's a linky: TNVC Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gtnichols 51 Posted October 24, 2008 Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 I put a green laser in mine when I had it, that worked pretty good! Talk about Blinding,.. fell out when I went shooting though, boing boing, the end of that mount does not attach to any rail and ,,... for me anyway,... bounced up and and down with heavier loads,.. till the laser bounced out on the ground.

sicktooth 8 Posted October 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2008 ive been thinking about a laser too. Cobra has one mounted in his gas tube...i believe its called a corsak 22 or something. i asked makc about it, he doesn't have any on hand...but if someone is willing to let one go...that would FINISH my S12...
