Anyone have an experience with the TL Racker ? Silly name, but 1000 lumens and a new forend for around $120 you couldn't go wrong. The other night the wife "heard" the doorbell and our dog was barking, but I didn't hear any of it. I grabbed the Shockwave instead of the Scar and soon realized I was lightless.

I have been thinking of a Magpul forend and adding a light and ran across this and was intrigued.

No idea on that one. But I have been using the surefire one for a very long time and there is no practical downside.

The downside to the Surefire is that they weigh a ton and depending on model, have pretty poor switch ergos. I think the TL Racker is an ugly bitch, but I'd like to give one a shot. Seems like a good choice for 14" guns.

I have one on a Mossberg. It's much better than it should be for $120. The switch takes some practice but it's useable. I'd say it's fine for HD or in my case motorhome defense.

Interesting. I have a very old Surefire forearm on my 870 (like incandescent old). I might take a look at this as my SBS project on this 870 takes shape.
