Inforce WML is 3.22 ounces with the battery and has nice controls. I have one mounted at 12 o'clock on my SBR and it works nicely in that application. It has a lot of spill and enough throw for working within 50 yards. My experience with Gen 2 Inforce lights has been really good. Had a WMLx on my patrol rifle that had been smashed into door frames and barriers enough the bezel was white when I sold it.
A 300 series Scout light will weigh 3.5-4.5 ounces depending on the mount with the batteries and clicky tail cap. I have an Arisaka 300 with a Malkoff E1HT head, Z68 clicky, and Arisaka inline mount on my 13.9 rifle. Don't know the weight exactly but it is noticeably lighter than my Modlite PLHv2 with an 18650 battery. The E1HT has a lot of throw and can easily ID targets out to 200 yards. I verified this with my range finder. It doesn't have a lot of spill though so for indoor work a standard Surefire KE1F head may work better.
Rechargeables are great and in modern lights like Modlite or Cloud Defensive the batteries hold a charge for a very long time. CR123a batteries are also great. Buy a box of 50 and they have a shelf life of 10 years. I just changed the batteries in one of my HD guns that had an expiration date of 2018 and they only recently went flat enough to need changed. There are pluses and minuses to both types and diversity isn't a bad thing.
