Post your rifle/carbine weight

Finally finished my rock river facelift. The gun is around 3 lbs lighter and at the same time is more ergonomic and more reliable. It went from almost 12 lbs to 9.4lbs in rock and roll mode. 7.8 lbs without the sling and magazine. The gun has sling, back up flips, 15 inch rail covered gas block, lig...

Re: Firstlight vs Surefire

Hmmm. I'm a big fan of Streamlight over Surefire, but will have to look into them. I'm always up for trying out new options. I carry a USB rechargeable Streamlight on my belt and a TLR1 on my gun, with an Ultrastinger right next to me. Too bad Sreamlight doesn't offer this type of T&E set up. I agr...

Re: Firstlight vs Surefire

When shooting with the lights i became completely uninterested in using the Firstlight lights. While dry firing they seem great, even better than the switchback ring. When actually firing though, the crenelated battery cover ate my fingers up under recoil. The pocket clip was uncomfortable as well a...

Re: Firstlight vs Surefire

When it comes to the Tomahawk LE vs the 6PX Defender things get interesting. The lights have similar output with the Tomahawk being brighter but not noticibly so. The Tomahawk has modes just like the tmax and for a off duty/edc light that is a huge plus. Its not that it has modes but it also has the...

Re: Firstlight vs Surefire

Thanks for the write-up, I've never heard of these guys before this. For those interested, their T&E program is for Military, LE, or industry professionals (trainers, potential dealers, security officers) and is in effect a lot more like a Pro Deal than a T&E program. They'll send you a code to use...

I personally never heard of Firstlight and when a friend asked me about them i checked into the brand. The web page has a t&e requeat form so i sent in a request and was appro...

Re: ...and those IRS agents need M4's, too

So what. 82,000 employees to handle over 200 million tax refunds in only a few months of the year, plus the other tax collection duties the rest of the year. Do the math on that. I dont see a problem. And thats coming from a conservative libertarian. Fox is just as guilty of twisting facts around as...

In KY it does. 503.085 provides criminal and civil immunity if you are justified in use of force.

As a SRO for a very large school in my county, i like the lock the door drill.

Re: headlight upgrade options

After pics. Much brighter more intense hot spot. Much whither light. No glare. This upgrade is safer all around, not just for my vision, but for oncoming traffic as well due to less glare. I attribute the less glare and better focus to the buffing of the lenses and the whiter light to the wire harne...
