    I would love if anyone with an olight knows if any would be compatible with an inforce aplc holster. Like a tenicor sagax lux.

    It's deceiving. The mounting bracket mounts OVER the rail, so it's actually not double the size. It does stick out a little bit, but it's smaller than it looks in the pics. Smaller than my old Streamlight TLR3, who's polymer mounting bracket broke the first time I mounted it...

    We have been running 8 O lights for farm and patrol use for the past five years. We have around 6 handhelds that are still in use. . 2 were stolen. None have given up. As far as WMLs go, I have a PL2 Valkyrie mounted on the 12 o'clock position on my AR. Round count is low, as it was mounted recently 800 since mounting but no issues so far. I really like the price/performance/durability ratio so far.

    Girlfriend's carbine has one of the 2 battery Olight weapon lights (that I forget the exact name of) mounted to it. Downsides I've noticed are that there is no off-switch for transporting the gun, and the mount doesn't seem super sturdy - in fact the light fell off the gun once when she bumped it against a vertical cover.

    The light itself is bright and keeps on working regardless of the weather conditions it is exposed to. But the downsides of the light make me think I really ought to upgrade it to something else. Imagining that light with a laser on it, I'd be sceptical of its ability to retain zero when being bumped around.

    Hopefully Olight has upgraded the mount in this new version. It does look similar to the old one though.

    I tried it on that flash sale a couple days ago and it gave me an extra $1.79 off. Heck, that's a coffee and doughnut at my normal morning stop.

    ETA: never mind -- I just remembered that one tiny ass light wasn't on sale, and it was $17.9X -- which explains the buck seventy-nine.

And EOTech is mud because their product was proven unreliable and the company lacking in ethics. Aimpoint is Swedish. Which made in the USA red dots are you using?
    Leupold makes a semi-budget RDS, but it's heavy and has an advertised 1000 hours battery life on setting 4 of 8. I'm not sure where they source the components. Not sure if anyone else makes one in the US.

    If you’re talking about the Freedom RDS it is a pretty awful.

    Leupold also makes the LCO which seems to be a love it or hate it proposition. Though most hate them. They haven’t really caught on and my limited shooting with one did not impress. Especially for the price which is steep.
