I purchased this LED light a few weeks ago. I work for a police department and had the Surefire G2 LED on my issued rifle. I used it at the range and deployed on several other occassions. The light was great!! I purchased the Streamlight LED which is 120 lumens compared to the Surefire G2 which is only 80 lumens, I now have the Streamlight polytac on my rifle and love it. It's alot brighter, same size as the G2 but half the prize, I highly recommend this light vs. the Surefire G2! I also own the Streamlight..
I own a lot of flashlights. Too many really. I only say that because it means I have some basis to say that the Streamlight Poly tac is every bit as good and probably better than my comparable Surefire lights. The Poly tac is a high quality light that is exceptionally bright. The LED is the best that I have seen. The light is white and even. The lumen output seems higher than lights I own that are rated with higher output. This is probably a function of the evenness of the beam and the color but it is very ..
I'm a Squad Leader with the U.S. Army Infantry. It was my intention to test this light out as a weapon mounted light. I had to do a small modification in order for it to work as one.
