WinnyDad's Review of Streamlight TLR-7 Tactical Weapon Light
I purchased this for my Sig P320RX Compact and the TLR 7 fit perfectly flushed with muzzle and trigger guard. I’ve already had the TLR 8 on my first P320 Compact that has the laser option due to not having an RMR, and this works flawlessly. Installing the light is a cinch and takes 2 minutes. The first time may cause a bit of confusion since the instructions arent very clear. The light looks amazing attached to the pistol. Installing the 123 battery is very user friendly as it only takes unscrewing the lens cap off, which can be done with light attached to the pistol. The controls on the 7 are super easy to use having switches on either strong or support sides. The ambi switch is a simple push forward once to turn on, and once again to turn off. Or you can keep finger on push forward motion to keep light on, then release button to turn off. The 500 lumens emits a “warm” white light that is fairly bright. I have a 380 lumen tactical flashlight that has a much whiter light so I was a little disappointed the TLR 7 (and 8) isn’t as bright. But for purposes of self defense in a nighttime scenario, the TLRs will do just fine. The light will blind your attacker without a doubt. Overall the device is very well constructed and feels very robust and sturdy. After hundreds of rounds thru both 320s, the lights haven’t budged or come loose at all. I think these TLRs are the best looking and best value for the price. I’m extremely impressed with the Streamligt products. I already have another TLR 7 on order for my Glock 19.
