need help deciding on these lights
3/1/2012 7:20:55 PM
Can you guys help me decide......surefire m600c vs. surefire m300a
I know I want whichever light in fde/tan, and I'm probably going to use the pressure switch on a vfg and I'll most likely mount the light on the left side of the rail(while looking through sights)
I have a 12 inch rail which is completely open so size doesnt matter, and a LW profile barrel so weight shouldn't be an issue either.
So all these things aside which light is recommended especially with only a $50 difference between the two.
The most I usually shoot is about 100 yds and thats during the day, and I use a pistol for HD, so this light is mainly just to finish off the rifle/to look good on the wall/ and most importantly to take out zombies at night time if SHTF.
Thanks guys.

The M600C has 200 lumens, is a bit heavier, and has a better throw than the M300. The M300A has about 110 lumens with a run time of 1.3 hours and is good for close distances. Either one will do but it sounds like the M600C will fit your zombie killin stick needs

Thanks man thats what I pretty much figured, but I keep second guessing myself because it seems like its more light than I need lol.....But then if I got the 300 I might be kicking myself later on....these lights are tougher at choosing than anything else on these rifles!

Get both
But yeah, I was pretty much torn between the full size and mini lights. I don't run tape switches, so I got a SF VTAC L4 on the way, and will probably get the VTAC mini L4 later.
