I assume you're referring to the Glock pistol light? If so, it was a decent cheaper light a decade ago but I wouldn't consider buying an incan now.

Please don't. I'm always amazed when I see someone who still uses one. It wasn't even good when it came out

I agree.  Glock should be embarrassed to put their name on it.  It wasn't bright at all and the Xenon light threw a terrible pattern.  Also, most holsters designed for guns with flashlights are designed for the Streamlight and Surefire lights and won't fit a gun with the Glock light.  Spend another $20-30 and get a Streamlight TLR-1.

I've never heard good things about Glock lights and I have yet to actually see one in person.  There's a reason for that.

They are junk. Bulb shot out after ~50 rounds of Tulammo... Popped a new bulb in and dumped on EE for $35. Pattern sucked, battery life sucked, size sucked, box was good, switch was good.

As already stated, they blow. Mine was activated while it was being transported in the car in a range bag. The heat caused the portion with threads for the bezel to fit on to melt, so now a crappy light pattern was worse. Buy a Streamlight and never look back.

TRL-1

I have one and it is a basic xenon bulb on new batteries it is bright enough and does not blind it also scatters a more filling light vs most that have a more focused or concentrated beam.  In my house with brown walls it actually works great.  Downsides are terrible battery life if you use it, it is bulky, not bright, holsters..... HAHA!

I am going to get a TLR-1 now.

My best objective opinion stated above.

ETA when I get the TLR-1 I plan on converting it to LED if I ruin the light at that point oh well.

Given one as a gift and I thought it was so bad I gave it away.  Didn't have the heart or conscience to even try and sell it to some poor unsuspecting soul.

Surefire.

X300 Ultra is incredible and worth every bit of ~$230.

I'd like to find a Glock light to use as a frame weight, but if you actually want to use it as a light, I will +1 the TLR1 series.
