Jen's Review of Crimson Trace Tactical Light for Rail-Equipped Long Guns, 500 Lumens
Bought this light knowing it was a bit on the cheap side, but hoped for the best because it was branded Crimson Trace. I really like the size and was plenty bright. It came with an okay mount and two switch options (tape switch and rear cap button). A couple minor design updates and this could be a great little flashlight.
My biggest complaint was it changed modes/brightness every time you hit the button. It would be full bright, then dim, strobe, repeat.... A bit of a design issue. Then the hook and loop strap for the tape switch broke the very first day. I would not recommend for any type of duty applications rough conditions, look for something more proven.
Pros:
light weight
Size
single battery
Came with mount, and two switch options
Cons:
Light switches modes every press of the on/off switch
Hook & loop strap broke
