I am in the market for a pistol mounted light, and have narrowed it down to the two mentioned above.
Are both brands comparable in terms of quality and construction?
The TLR I want is the newer TLR 1s (s)=strobe function...which has the 160 lumen C4 LED. The Surefire X300 has a 110 lumen LED, but from what I gather based on its internal reflector design etc...it has better "throw", which essentially means it may cut through the darkness of night better, which may give it better penetration through the darkness for outdoor usage, and the TLR 1s may have a little bit less of a tighter beam, giving it better "spill" which equals better peripheral lighting...more suited for indoor usage.
Anyone own and/or use both? please share any knowledge and experiences
Thanks a bunch.
