I have decided I want to run a "pistol" light at 12 o'clock on my new rifle. I know they have some cons, but I really dislike mounting hand held lights on the rails PLUS the I have had issues with some of my surefire hand helds in the past. Right now I have a gen 1 Inforce APL on my glock 17/19 and it works great and locks up solid. I will be running a fixed DD front sight and I think it would go around that nicely and it can be locked out by unscrewing the bezel a little. The TLR is cheaper, has more brightness options, and the switch seems like it would work well. Downside is I don't think there is anyway to manually lock it out while it isn't being used.
Will either of these lights have any glaring pros over the other? I just want a light for indoor use and possible engagements to around 75 meters or so.
My DD front sight and BCM VG is on order already.
