I bought new tactical flashlight

Recommended Posts

Fenix FD35 TAC

Pretty nice to have on hand. Bright for regular use and the strobe mode is awesome if ever needed.

I love Fenix flashlights.  I actually own 2 of the FD35's but still haven't ordered the batteries or charger for them yet.  That's the only downside.  My other Fenix take AA.

 

eta:  Their warranty is fantastic.  I had an issue on the tail switch of one, emailed the company, sent the light in and a few weeks later they sent me a brand new one.  It was easily 2-3 years old.  Pretty impressive.

Very cool. I had a battery on hand to put in and I love this.  Instantly I realized, this is an extremely well made tool.

Was always partial to Stingers.  Green beret kid works for me had us buy some fockin bajillion power small doublenpress lights.  Daamnnn... retina burners but sure shock and awe when needed.

Those are pretty nice. Streamlight makes a wide variety of lights. Attachments for firearms and such.  I often times carry a smaller Olight but I'm switching to the Fenix for a bit. It's a little bigger and better for self defense if needed.

Ive never tried a fenix, but they look solid.  I carry a Strion on my person, and a Stinger mounted in the truck on charger.  Believe it or not, I also carry 2 of these in my go bag, and 2 more stowed in the truck.

They have been dependable lights through all kinds if weather extremes.  They also give me an alkaline option if the rechargeables go down.

I also normally run this on my service weapon.  Some people arent a fan, but I like it.

My tactical flashlight is rail mounted onto one of these...

 

 

That's some pretty solid home defense.
