    Nice find!
    Everywhere else is 120 +

    Do you think the 500 lumens it claims to have a bit overwhelming for indoor use?

    Good price, I have seen the TLR-1 HL (800 lumen) for $99 on Amazon a few times this month, $109 shipped at Botachtactical.

    There are multiple camps on your question, One will say no, blind your attacker another will say yes, too much will blind yourself, myself, I am cheap. ICBWrong, and I'm sure there is a thread on your question.

    Used/Returned item

    This seemed like a good deal, and so I ordered one. Upon receiving, I noticed that a piece (a key that locks the light in place on my Glock19) appeared to be missing.
    While I was on hold with the company, I noticed that the "missing" part had in installed on the light. Also, the battery was not wrapped.

    I don't really mind enough to return it for a new one, but I would rather have received a new one.

    Other than that, the light fit perfectly.

    Same here however mine came with the universal mount inlay already installed. I believe they come like this from the factory, as unless you have a particular manufacturer these fit almost all applications. One of the reviews online mentions they come with the universal mount preinstalled.

    Glocks (except for Gen5 17s and 19s), Beretta APX, Springfield Armory, and Ruger use the Univeral 1 mount, according to the Streamlight paper insert.
    Sig, S&W, FN, most other Berettas, HK, Kimber, CZ use other keys.

    I doubt that Streamlight assumed that most of their customers are Glock owners, and pre-installed the Glock keys in all lights. Perhaps I am wrong.

    Also, two other keys had been torn off of the 6-key tree that is included. I have no doubt that mine was a return.

    I am kinda strange like that. I don't like to read my newspaper after someone else has thumbed through it. Leave my damn paper alone! And get of my yard! Yes, kind of a dinosaur, still reading newspapers.
