Thinking about dropping it and grabbing a SF so I can find something I carry it in. When I bought this one I had trouble finding anything for a 5" 2.0 with ANY kind of lighting options. |

You lose all of your grip when wearing gloves in that kind of greasy mess.

So DFARM...I impulsively bought a 1" or2" x 42" belt grinder today. I don't know what I'm going to try making (besides a mess and a lot of scraps). Just kinda dipping my toes into the maker arena to see if I can make some useful designs. Still need to figure out what I'm doing for heat treat.. Might just have to farm it out until/if I justify getting my own oven.

I’ve been carrying streamlight flashlights (hand held) for years. We’ve had TLR-1 HL’s on our pistols for almost 2 years now. Zero issues. I’ve seen them abused and beat to hell. One is bent out of round, still works like nothing happened. I own Surefire (hand helds) as well. Great lights, just very expensive. Check out Theis holsters...they might have a holster for the Olight. |
