I'm looking for one of these in black; I like the clip, it fits perfectly in a pocket. Sadly, they're out of production and real hard to find:

A very simlilar model has also been discontinued:

This newer Alpha Elite Rechargeable would work, it comes with a lithium battery but also takes one each plain, ordinary, buy anywhere AA:

Does anyone have the Alpha Elite USB Rechargeable?

These have the clip and are a lot cheaper. Also they have the tactical sharp hood for defense and use AA or 14400 battery.

There are many similar lights out there that are better and aren't a licensed product, which generally adds cost.

Look at the Olight S1A if you like that clip.
Also look at
Lumintop Tool AA
Klarus XT1A
Thrunite Archer 1AV3
Klaurs Mi7 (smaller light)

If you give me an idea of what features you like that will narrow things down.
i.e. cool vs neutral white
battery size and primary vs rechargable
size
cost
modes
switch type

Oh hell, I know what every one of those is...I think I have a problem!

This popped in my email just now. Seems appropriate. If the OP liked the clip on the Browning, this is better.

In that case, I'll add the
JetBeam E10R
Fenix RC05
Lumintop EDC05C (very nice if you only use 14500s)
