I'll let you know, I am expecting my Op9 to arrive any time now.
Will be mounting it to my Benelli Nova Tactical pump. |

I have only limited experience with them. They do seem like good lights. Hawkeye has at least one and I think two of their lights as well as a Surefire. So he may be able to give you a more balanced opinion. The one thing I saw that I didnt really like was their constant on/off toggle. The one I saw appeared to be a little thin/weak. I have no test data to support this, it was just an observation. If you were to get one with a tape switch, this of course would not be an issue at all.

Madecov, what made you chose LDI? Price I presume? And please keep us posted on your impressions!
New-arguy, would you happen to know Hawkeye's email? Thanks. |

I am an authorized LD LE/Military distr. I am also a master SureFire dealer. I will just say that LD makes a damn fine torch and are VERY cheap! Here is the link to Hawkeye's comments on the LD OP-6 light he bought from me: www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=20&t=191853 C4 www.gandrtactical.com |

Grant, can the LD lights be had with a pressure pad and push button on the same unit (I've seen SF with this configuration)? I'm asking b/c I would also like to get a LD laser and want to be able to manipulate both light and laser without having to change my grip. I am also thinking about using a foregrip so I was planning on having the laser pressure switch on the grip and maybe a thumb activated switch for the light. I have never used anything but pressure pads so this will be new to me. Are thumb switches comfortable and easily sustained under continuous fire? BTW I will most likely be mounting both on a Predator rail system for my M4.

LD doesn't make a tailcap like the SF XM series. The momentary/constant on button is really a better choice IMHO than a light with a pressure switch... C4 |

No, but they do have a presure pad and a toggle switch combo, I believe. A little diffeerent than what you are used to, but the effect is the same. |

Does anyone have photos of the LD pushbutton tailcap? Also, I'm interested in seeing the barrel mount for the OP series lights (if there is one). This would be for a carbine with M4 handgaurds, and I'd like to use a barrel mount under the FSB, similar to SF's Classic Weaponlight setup. Mounting on the handgaurd is not an option for me, as this carbine has to fit into a vehicle gun lock.

I cant say about the LDI lights as I have all surefire lights but I own a LDI OTAL and feel it to be one of the best constructed lasers I have ever seen. I would not hesitate to buy anything they make. That being said, I love my surefire M961 and M951 and would not use any other light if had the choice.

I have one of the LDI lights (finally arrived) I'm very pleased with it. Price is very right also.
Mine's mounted on my duty shotgun ( we can't carry long guns ) . |
