Looking for a light for my 9mm AR with a few caveats:
1 - LED
2 - Off the shelf batteries (not Surefire batteries, etc)
3 - Either can be used with rings that mount to picatinny rails or has a built in picatinny mount.
4 - Remote on/off optional
The goal for the carbine is something that is home defense and I can grab and go if the case ever arises. Surefire makes some great lights for the law enforcement community, but on a rifle that might not have the light used often, I don't see the point of having something that uses a rechargeable cell that might have drained in between uses due to some parasitic loss. In the case I have to use the light if something goes bump I can test the function and slap in some fresh batteries rather than hoping I have some that are charged in a worst case scenario.
Recommendations?
