Have a P220R and its time to get a light for her. Which do you guys use? Price is a concern and a holster (kydex) must be available for it...so what do you think??

| I have a TLR-1 on my issued P229R and now my P2000. Raven made my holsters. Personally, if your not in LE or this isn't a dedicated bedside gun I would just buy a SF hand held light. Weapon mounted lights turn your gun into a large item on your belt and difficult to conceal. When I'm off duty my TLR comes off and I carry a hand held light and carry my HK in a standard IWB holster. |
| Point taken Redbone! The reason I want to attach a light is that I would prefer to keep one hand free while responding to bumps in the night. Now that I think about it, I wouldnt really be carrying it much with the light on. So I guess that one of the considerations is what material the light is made of??? If metal, then constant removal may affect the finish of the weapon? |

I just ordered a Streamlight TRL-1 based off of many positive reviews on the forum here. I believe that you could get a Raven Concealment Phantom holster for your P220 w/ TRL-1. The X300 light by SureFire looks terrific too, just about twice the price. +1... I was able to buy 2 TLR-1's for the price of an X300. It's perfect for a handgun. I've never had any trouble with mine at all. |
