Thread: Sure Fire Sidearm lights

I was given an M-6 Streamlight as a gift for my flashlight. Well, even with good intentions, the Streamlight was bought off of Ebay as a new item. So I slapped it on my Glock 19 and tried to sight it in, however the the elevation screw it stripped. Without going into a long story of my conversations with Ebay . . . the bottom line is I'm stuck with this light.

So I send the light with my business card and ask Streamlight how much it will be to repair the light.

Two weeks later, I get a voicemail saying that the light is out of warranty, so Streamlight will not fix the light/laser. They tell me the light will be shipped back and there is some other company that will fix the laser adjustment for like $40.00 or whatever. It took 3 weeks for those guys at Streamlight to send my M6 back.

Needless to say, I'm not impressed with Streamlight and their customer support after the warranty expires, and now I need a light for a Sig 229.

I want a light/laser for the Sig 229 and want to know who has experience with the Surefire mounted lights and what models etc. will fit the Sig 229 with rail?

Thanks

I just picked up the Streamlight TLR-1 for mine. It's an LED w/ aluminum body. Haven't used it in the field yet, but so far I'm very happy with it.

I got it for about $100 from an police distibutor out of Austin.

Thanks for the info.

I carry a Surefire X200A attached to my Wilson CQB at my part time job and recommend it highly. It is bright enough, small and doesn't use too much battery power. Plus it's a surefire, they definitely do stand behind their products and take good care of LEO's.

Another vote for Surefire X200A......Surefire will back you up if ever any problems, it's worth the extra $$$.
