| Do people like their Surefire X200. I am a big fan of the sure fire lights. Got them on my AR and shotgun but I am hearing a few mixed reviews on the X200 pistol lights. I have the M3 right now but I like the power of the surefire plus the fact that you don' t have to focus a surefire. |

I have two x200's, one on a TLE/RL2 and the other moves between a G19 and G17. I had some problems with it loosening on the TLE/RL but not on the Glock. I think it stays put on the Glock because the Glock rail is wider and rails have nowhere to go if the screws loosen, but that's just my WAG. I also have a M3X that is currently on my AR but will soon move to my HK94 clone. The M3X puts out more light than the x200, and the M3X remote switch on a long gun is pretty good. At close range the x200 is harder to look at because of the blue/white LED light. But it doesn't have quite the throw of the M3X. Surefire has been lagging releasing any remote switches or pressure pads for the x200. The M3X is not well-supported holster-wise, which is why it will probably stay on one of my long guns. I guess I like both lights, for different reasons.
