Where I work, we are still issued mini mag lights…  I’m looking for a carry tactical flashlight of approximately the same size; it can be slightly larger. Must be black and come with a black nylon carry case (to fit my duty gear). I’m looking to spend around $100 Also, links to a good website where to buy it. Thanks for the help

I use the surefire A2 Aviator in my flight gear. It has the LED dimmer light option (which is still very bright) or the blind-everyone-within-a-100-meter-radius option. Only beef I have with it is that sometimes it kicks straight to the blind-everyone-within-a-100-meter-radius option option without giving my the LED option. That's kind of irritating in the cockpit on a pitch-black night on a carrier deck, but hey, what can you do. Matt |

How about a Pentagon light? www.talonarms.com/talonarms/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=94_95&products_id=26 |
You know you can lock out the incandescent light? |

First off go to the Industry section and look for Calvin's business "BrightFlashLights". He'll hook you up with Surefires (or others) at a great cost. A very good place to get info on this subject is in the LIGHTS AND LASERS section in the AR Discussion area. For $100 you have lots of good options from incandecents to High-Output LEDs. |
Yes, but then when I WANT to blind someone (or look at the belly of another airplane), I have to turn the knob - I'm lazy. Matt |
