Easy to use. installed in seconds. Great for pistol, shotgun, and rifle. Also very hardy, dropped my pistol and in landed on the light first, thought I broke the light, nope just a scratch.

LED these days is the way to go if you're looking for that ultra blinding light. It's extremely functional and will do the job it's intended for...just not quite as bright as I had hoped...then again...it is a Halogen light. Price is right though.

Even though this is EOTech instead of Streamlight it seems to be a better light than my old Streamlight M3. I heard that this light was always made by EOTech but sold by streamlight. For the money this is a great light.

As a police officer, I need my gear to work right the first time every time. Unfortunately, while at the range, the M3 would pop off the rails of my Glock 23 after firing only a few shots. And go with an LED light rather than the halogen. Once soot gets on the lens of the light, it greatly reduces the brightness of the light. I ended up replacing my M3 with a TLR1 and have had no problems since.

I purchased the Insight M3 (GLL-700-A1) light for my Glock 23 several years ago. At that time, I didn't do any research, just walked into the gun shop and found one that fit. It was an excellent tactical light then so I looked for the Insight brand again last month when I got my new Glock 21. I decided to do my research this time and spent days checking out reviews and prices. Even though I was extremely open minded and could have purchased any light I wanted, I ended up purchasing the M3 again, except this time it is L.E.D. and even better! I use the light for home protection (clip it on at night and back off in the morning) so it is really nice that it slides off and on so easy. The new LED light is super bright. There were others that were brighter but I don't need to light up a football field nor do I want a light around that could accidently set someone's eyes on fire from 10 yards away, I just need a really bright light and this one does that just fine! Matter-of-fact, you cannot ...
