| The growing opinion is that modern LED WeaponLights such as the M600C and X300 produce beams of sufficient strength to negate the need for three-SF123A incandescent models when IR light is not a requirements. The M600C is far smaller (shorter, thinner, much less bulky) and far more light-weight. |

I'm thinking about purchasing the Surefire M962 KIT1. Is this a good general purpose light for an AR? I own an M962 and have had excellent luck with it. That being said, there is currently no viable LED option for the M962-so you are stuck with lousy battery runtime and incandescent bulbs that burn out. A few years ago, the M962 was the cat's meow-but they have simply been eclipsed by newer technology. I am patiently awaiting for Surefire (or someone) to release an LED retrofit kit for mine. On the plus side, the M962 is built like a damned tank. Here's mine: 
ETA: It also has an excellent beam

What is a good price on a new 600C? I just picked up a M600C in Desert Sand Brown for $325.00 and am very happy with it. The Scout light is better than my M962 in every way. I do not need the IR feature so the LED fits my needs fine. As mentioned above, Brightflashlights is the way to go, he got me a great price on my M962XM07 and my M900A. |
