Anybody got a pic of a fullsize M&P9 with an Insight X2L on it? Also, is this a good light/laser combo for the price?

Not worth the money.  Those lights only produce around 40 lumens of light which is about 20-25 lumens under the accepted minimum for a combat light. Also, when the lens gets covered with powder residue from shooting, the light becomes even more ineffective. We messed with one of these when I was in Lowlight INstructor school for Team ONe/Streamlight. No one there liked the light. YOu would be better served going with the TLR series of lights or one of the new X200L lights that Surefire is set to release.

How about the TLR2, is it any good? Anybody got a pic of one on an M&P?

This isn't what you asked for, bet here's my M&P 40 wearing a Ledwave Z-5 light. They're around $40 on ebay, and plenty bright. Not sure how it's going to hold up long term though.....but it's doing fine so far.
