The Streamlight TLR-7 weapon-mounted tactical light was first showcased at SHOT Show 2018 earlier this year and is now the latest addition to Streamlight’s celebrated TLR line.

“Uh-Oh, your lights have gone out”, says the instructor. While clearing an objective during SWAT training the instructor’s decided that my team’s weapon mounted lights had run out of battery. How convenient. I recently received the Tungsten DF Light and had it on my kit for such a “surprise”, so out it came. The emphasis […]
As part of your Every Day Carry (EDC) kit, you need a good light to keep the dark at bay, confuse an assailant, or find your way through over uneven terrain or dark alleys. I have been using the ASP Dual Fuel Guardian for a month now, it is small enough to keep in my […]

I have always carried a gun with me, but recently I decided that I wanted to complete the big three; gun, […]
A good flashlight is a nice thing to have and having one attached to your firearms can be of great benefit. When choosing a weapon-mounted flashlight that will hold up under hard use, you have to consider the conditions for which it will be employed. If you intend to utilize your weapon light in the harsh conditions of Afghanistan, […]
In the never-ending search for quality, performance and value in the market for every day carry, there is often little to separate certain products from one another.
