Streamlight TLR-3 broke at the range today.

Just in case anyone else was using this light, something to consider. I will contact Streamlight CS.

Maybe it's on strike.

This went on a subcompact. Not enough room for a regular light.

I actually remember when that was high-speed equipment.

They are replacing it.

I'm not sure if that is such a good thing...but there are not many options for lights on subcompacts.

streamlight

Streamlight is good people. I had the rail adapter for the M9 and it broke, they quickly sent another one APO and didn't even bother to want the old one.
There was some improvements in the design and it lasted the rest of the deployment just fine.

Not bad in my opinion.
