| Which would make a better light on a patrol rifle. I work in more of an urban area and my current setup is a Surefire G2 LED in a Vtac mount. I have also thought about the Vtac L4. Any suggestions? |

I tired the SF x300 (similar to the TLR1) on my patrol rifle for a while but didn't like it, YMMV. One thing you should consider is the lack of a lockout switch on the TLR1, so you have to be careful about accidental activation and draining of the batteries.
I haven't tried the Vtac or Inforce lights yet but they both seem like very good options. In fact, the next weapon light I buy will probably be either a Vtac or Inforce. ETA: For what its worth, I use a SF M300 Mini Scout on my patrol rifle. |

I have read the reviews and I like the Inforce light. I also like the Streamlight and I have used them before. The G2 works but I think is kinda bulky looking, esp w/ the Vtac mount and the X300 is a little out of my price range. So I was kinda hoping to hear from someone who has used both. |
| I went from a clicky tail cap polytac to the tlr1-s I have now and am very happy. The toggle switch is much quicker and foolproof. Pull or push left or right side toggle and you have light :) strobe is very disorienting as well. Tried it on myself and see it's use now! Got mine from botach two weeks ago for $81 shipped. They had 10% off but it's over now. You can still Probobly get it for 90 shipped I haven't checked though. |
