I know very little concerning lights for "carry". What would you guys suggest for a light for my "carry gun". Thanks for all suggestions | ||

I don’t carry with weapon light on my EDC (P365X or XL), but if I did it would be with a Streamlight TLR 7 Sub. There are many reviews online to get an idea if it fits your requirements. I personally carry a small flashlight everywhere and use it for something almost everyday in lieu of a dedicated WML. I learned to shoot using a handheld light in the early 90s and feel adequately covered in situations that may arise as a civilian CCW holder. _________________________ "An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile - hoping it will eat him last” - Winston Churchil | |||

I have the same question and am down to two versions of the Streamlight for my P365/X/XL… TLR-7 X SUB (Item #: 69406) TLR-7 HL-X SUB (Item #: 69504) You have to be careful which Streamlight model you purchase since they have specific item numbers for different guns/rails — e.g., G43X/48 MOS, P365/XL, 1913, and Hellcat. I think they are the same size and both include a rechargeable battery via USB-C, but the HL (High-Lumen) model has double the lumens (1,000) and candela (10,000) as the non-HL model (500 lumens / 5,000 candela). So the HL model should be brighter, of course, this also means that it is rated to last only 30 minutes on a full battery charge as opposed to the non-HL model’s one hour run-time. EDIT: I just watched the YouTube video linked below for the HL model and it appears you can configure the light into strobe mode and also program it to run at the lower 500 lumens and 5,000 candela to save battery. This makes the HL model a no-brainer for me to purchase over the non-HL model. https://youtu.be/wiUgVPjngik?feature=shared | |||
