Tk5o, I don't know of any local kydex benders in Pcola but there's a plethora of ones that will make one for a TLR1 or 7. Mine pictured is a Holsterco but the short list for me is Dark Star gear, Philster, Holsterco, I think Gcode has a AIWB now but not sure if its light bearing.
Back on lights...I like the "hot spot" of the HL for ccw. It's generous inside 10 yards, I wouldn't pocket carry one for looking across a corn field but for short work it's good. I actually prefer it to my x300 for ccw. I don't have much experience with the 7 other than fondling one.

I have lights on any weapon I plan to use for conceal carry or home defense. If I want to use it, it’s there if not I don’t.
For my G43 I have a TLR6 and it adds basically no bulk at all.
On my G19 I have a TLR-1 HL.
Both use a crossbreed holster. Both do not change carrying them. I’ll say that holster selection is more limited. Alienwear doesn’t make TLR1 holsters for G19 and CB doesn’t make an OWB holster for the G19. I think the G43 is more supported though.
That said you can still find holsters for them just more limited and sometimes a little more expensive.
Every one will have a different opinion. If you want a light, get one, see if you like it, and if you don’t list it back on here lol.
TLR? Sounds like a dealWith all this talk about weapon light. I got a streamlight from a pawn shop for $64.00 with tax included. I'm order a holster off eBay next week.
Yeah it does. I've slowly been transitioning from Surefire to Streamlight.TLR? Sounds like a deal

I'm down to just 3 X300s and an old X200 I use on as a helmet light.

Streamlight has really upped their game the last couple of years and IMO is putting out a near equal product for 50-60% of the cost. There are a few areas that Surefire still excels such as dual white/ir heads but outside of that I no longer think they are worth the asking price.How come out of curiosity?
The Uboats have more of a cult following than function in the "regular guy genre" it seems. Of course if I was kicking in doors for a living it would Surefire everything. HahaYeah it does. I've slowly been transitioning from Surefire to Streamlight.

The Surefires are good, I just don't think they are worth the cost anymore and I've used them exclusively for almost 30 years until about 18-20 months ago when I decided to give Streamlight another look.I wanted a x300 but. I'm get one later. But I like both lights.
I wouldn't even be Surefire then unless I were running a dual white/ir light. I do have a Vampire on my Peq15 gun only because I want the dual head.The Uboats have more of a cult following than function in the "regular guy genre" it seems.

Yep, we're running them different. On my night stuff I'm running a Peq15 and NVGs my white light use is generally inside 25yards so the wider throw on the HL isn't as big an issue to me.For short pistol work the TLR-HL is great, I'm pretty sure the x300 holds a beam for greater distance. I tested between the 2 lights in the back yard. The "hotspot" of the x300 holds farther out but within 20 yds the TLR is plenty bright. I'd take pictures but a quick Google/YouTube search will give plenty of data and opinions.

I'll give you a good deal on a lightly used one when you're ready.Yes you right surefire is $300 or better. I'm be looking for black Friday sales.
