Best weapon light for the buck

hands down.  I got this one with IR, even though nobody can use that function, because it was cheaper than the non IR one at my local gun store.  If i ever get a set of IR goggles, this might come in handy, but just for white light?  Just as good as a surefire with the bonus of strobe.  strobe is fun

Military serviceman on the high seas with a lot of experience with LE equipment.  I bought this item just because i'm on a tight budget and i made the right decision.  The light is very bright, clamps down well and doesn't move with impact, storage, and shooting.  Seen a lot of smaller lights with pressure switch at a price that'll say "it better be made out of gold" but this one is just right for my LWRC M6 for home defense and recreational shooting.

I've used many lights during my military career and this one ranks with the best of them, particularly for its size. Compact design, easy to use controls and fits nicely on my KSG shotgun's picatinny rail. Bargain deal you should take advantage of!

I purchased two Streamlight 69220 TLR-3 flashlights and then-- most recently-- this Streamlight 69260 TLR-1 flashlight. They are all fine combat/tactical flashlights, but for the money and the size, I think the Streamlight 69220 TLR-3 is the superior value and design overall. The Streamlight 69260 TLR-1 is only *slightly* brighter, but the form factor looks and *feels* a lot larger. This most recent light install was on a long-slide Glock 10mm-- where real estate is no object. So I stuck with the TLR-1.

You can see the result below (the TLR-1 is on the left and the TLR-3 is on the right). For a compact pistol I'd go with the TLR-3. For a full-size or long-slide pistol, I'd go with the TLR-1.

I've bought $20,$30 and $70 tactical lights and this one holds its own with the $70 light. If your looking for inexpensive light this one is the best you'll get under $50.

The Light and Laser work great and hold zero on my glock 42, perfect to keep on the nightstand the 100 lumens is bright enough to get around the house just fine I have no issues at all. Well worth the $100

Great light for the money! Mount is solid and does not seem to loosen after rounds are fired. I have this mounted on my AR-15, and have only put about 100 rounds through, but so far it has performed well. I have used both the tail cap switch, and the remote pressure switch, and both work well. The 1000 Lumens designation is the only real "stretch" here (as it is with most lights in this price range)... honestly I would estimate it to be about 200-300 Lumens. I could have something brighter/more focused for longer range situations, but not ready to invest $300-$500 in a weapon light at this point.

For those of you who intend to use this light for predator/hog/varmint hunting (as I do). I've had good success lighting prey up to about 50-60 yards in total darkness. You could probably stretch it to 100 yards in a pinch (but ALWAYS know what is down range, behind your target before taking risky shots) SAFETY FIRST!

Quality TAC light and compares very well with most models in price range.

It's a very good light for the price. This is not for a long rifle or a shotgun. I put it on my Beretta PX4 9mm. It's perfect for what I needed. This is not a light that you would use as a flood light. Perfect for rooms inside your house or maybe outside in your yard. I would suggest this for anyone looking for a light for home defense. It's real easy to acquire targets and the light helps you distinguish what you're shooting at. Every gun that possibly can be used in a home or personal defense situation should be equipped what's some form of Illumination.

Excellent light for the money. Not battle tested so I can't review on durability, however it has been to many ranges and seen over 5000 rounds pass above it. Still works and I am confident it won't fail me when I need it the most.

Great light, very durable and extremely bright. Love it, best buy for the price. May order a few more. using this on my AR, Still need to fire test it, but seems to hold up great so far.

I didn't purchase mine off of Amazon, however, I've owned this light for over four years now. I have not had one problem or issue. There are of a higher cost than many other light that can be had. But... for what you pay, this with proper care might last a life time, not even joking. For a lower lumens light, it sure seems much brighter. It is thirsty on the CR123 (2x's) batteries on the white light, but is also to be expected. A nice feature I thought, once your battery life is getting low, it automatically goes into a quick strobe like light. It is a little on the heavy side, but due to the near bullet proof quality, I'm gladly taking the trade off. The mount is crazy great quality as is the rest of the very solid unit. I have use the "IR" feature with a couple of cameras that will see with this color of light. Amazing how it really makes everything light up. I'm only speculating, but I'll bet with some good night sights or scopes, one would not be disappointed. These are WELL worth every penny. My son also purchased one as well and I believe he is as happy as I am.

This is a good light for the price. It mounted easily using the included hardware. The light is bright and the pressure switch works well. I have put hundreds of rounds through my rifle and the light still functions perfectly. You could spend more on a brighter, more durable and possibly more reliable light but for the average user this will be good enough.

Great light - paired with a Larue mount on my SBR.
IR light has great reach and spill when viewed under NVGs, white light is a little hot in the middle but totally useable. White light is a little "weak" at 150 lumens compared to other lights but I find it's more useful than my 500 lumen X300U which makes the targets TOO bright and causes target fixation.

Switching between modes involves pulling the bezel outwards (towards the front of the gun) and rotating. Bezel can be a little stiff at the beginning but after some use, does become easier to switch between modes.

If you are looking for a light which has all the features of a self-defense light without wanting to spend the highers prices for professional-level tactical lights ($80-$150), this is the light for you.

The features which make this a great light for self defense:
- Small, but not too small, size.  You can carry this on your belt easily without it getting in the way.
- Crazy bright, and I mean stunningly bright, light.  This will stop someone in their tracks.
- The button is on the back end, so you can hold it in your fist.
- The button will turn on the light with gentle pressure instead of a full click and release (as most lights do).
- Three modes: normal, strobe, and dim are perfect (including the strobe rate).
- Crown bezel (probably the most minor advantage of the bunch).
- And a surprise feature I didn't expect: the belt clip is a snap release allowing for very fast deployment.

Potential disadvantages:
- Not rechargeable - it uses standard batteries.
- The batteries are not typical AA, or AAA, but still appear to be easy to find at local stores.

I would heartily recommend this light in a heartbeat!  It is the only light I have found so far which fits the the self defense application well, and doesn't cost a hefty amount.  If you are a pro who uses a light every day then you may want to spend the extra money for a rechargeable but this light is fantastic.

This is a really superb WML for an M4-type rifle.  I think that momentary-only is the way to go on a defensive rifle; for predator control maybe a constant on would be useful but most trainers advocate short bursts of light combined with movement for CQB.  I've been alternating between this light and my Surefire X300 Ultra on my AR and it's hard to decide which I like more.  The Inforce is smaller and lighter and has a better switch.  The Surefire is brighter.  For outdoor use, and again maybe for varmints, the extra light would be useful.  Indoors though it's overkill.  Overall I think the Inforce is better for the role I envision for this particular rifle.

The construction is great and it mounts securely to the rail, yet it's easy to remove, too. The set screw is an ingenious way to ensure it won't fly off when you need it.

The only minor downside is probably going to be battery life.  I expect that like my 1-cell Inforce APL it won't have the run time of the 2-cell Surefire of JETBeam lights I run on my other long guns.  That and of max brightness- if you're looking for a blowtorch this isn't your light.  But the angled push button switch is very intuitive and run at 12:00 on my carbine it's perfectly ambidextrous.

Highly recommended for an AR!
