[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 3309376, member: 1132"] Got mine in yesterday. First impressions, the light itself is fairly lightweight, so I don't know how robust it is. Second, definitely not 1200 lumens. Looks more like 350-400, with a nice bright white center (probably 6000K?) with no discernible dark spots and plenty of flood in a secondary (lower output) edge pattern. The tailcap is a clicky with no momentary function. The threads were dry and needed some silicone based lubricant. I'm not a pressure switch fan so I didn't test the one included, but it seems to be about what you paid for it. The mount is reversible and includes two adapters, so if you wanted to throw something like a smaller bodied Defender or larger polymer light in it, you could. The finish leaves a lot to be desired but the fasteners crank down with plenty of gradually increasing tension and should make for a solid mount. The mount has a fair amount of standoff from the rail, so it will work better with a pressure switch. Most mounts that put the light high and tight cost a lot more. Overall I think this is a solid buy. The best parts are the batteries, light and adaptable mount. I'd probably put it on a hunting rifle and after plenty of testing, a bedroom SBR or AR pistol. I would not put it on a duty gun that was subject to rougher treatment. JMO, YMMV [/QUOTE]
