[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Is this a good deal?

Posted: 9/7/2013 8:09:14 AM EDT

I'm looking for a relatively cheap light and mount for my ar.

I've decided to not spend more than $100 of a light+mount, but I would love to spend less than $80 fr everything.

I found this on ebay:http://www.ebay.com/itm/Surefire-6P-LED-TACTICAL-weapon-flashlight-BRIGHT-CUSTOM-LED-700-LUMENS-BRIGHT-/380709941299?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item58a414b033

It sounds like a good deal, but I would have to buy a mount. But I'm not very experienced when it comes to tactical flashlights, can anyone provide some advice on this purchase?

If someone can tell me how to make a like "hot" that'd be great to..

A quick read-through didn't trip my weasel-speak knockoff alarm, but I don't see how he could be selling those so cheap.

So the price could be a red flag?

Based on the LED in the pictures, I'm gonna say that's like a XRE or XPE which isn't going to be anywhere near 700 lumens. Maybe 200.

Get a 6PX tactical and put it in your mount of choice.

Well.. I took the chance and ordered it from ebay.
I also ordered a gear sector offset mount from ebay.

I'll let you know how it turns out.

So I just got the light out of the mailbox and I put some batteries in it and the button won't click at all. I took the batteries out and the button still won't budge.

The bulb says xm LT6

Edit: I figured it out... sorry I'm a noob..

It is really bright
