Best Pistol Lower Rail Torch/ Flashlight

[James Baker]

I'm after a flash light for the lower rail of my TM G17, budget isn't really an issue but I want value for money, ideally in the £50 region. But willing to pay more if its worth it, an obviously happy to pay less if £50 isn't worth it. There are so many clones about its hard to know where to spend my money.

Any ideas welcome!

Another vote for olight here. I've been running valkryie pistol light for years and as a lover if dark/night games it's had a lot of use in all conditions and taken all of it without fault.

I bought a Surefire X300 clone from Hong Kong about two years ago.

Cost me about £30. Works fine. Why pay more?

Compare a RS weapon light to a clone and you'll see why people pay more.  Sure, "it's just airsoft" but there are situations where RS lights outshine clones by a silly amount.  Shining a light from outside bright daylight into a dark building for instance.  Or simply the extra range you'll get with lots of RS lights.

Because for another £20 you can have a used, perfect, almost indestructible Olight lol

Just don't put it in your mouth...

And yes, I know it was the batteries that were to blame for that.

I know the O Light is better.

But I bought the Surefire clone because I had a holster that was designed to fit it.
