Gee thanks, deanopilot. You just told me I have a girly-flashlight. :-)

(Hangs head in shame)

Now I'm gonna have to go out and buy one of those surefires just so I can continue to hang out here.

You know that I have the highest respect for the work you do kman, so I Googled® a search for a flashlight you might want to check out: http://collector-connection.site.yahoo. ... tflas.html

I'm telling you kman, that I've got enough Hello Kitty Krap around our house to make me consider turning anti-cat. Like my friend says: "I love cats....if they're prepared properly". :twisted:

I got me a Surefire G2 and an Inova X5 I need to get a second Surefire. For the longest time I thought that the maglite series were the best. :shock:

I have a Surefire e2o that lives in my left back pocket. It goes everywhere with me. More than once, it has come in real handy. The small size makes it an ideal carry light. The light output beats the daylights out of any MagLite I've ever owned.

It's a decent little upgrade to the flashlight and only costs about US$9.
i've converted about 6 of my AA mini-mags to this. i luv it. i keep the mini-mags in each room of the house and 1 in each car along with their big brother - the 2 d-cell mag.

as for the sure-fires - got 1 several years ago for a present and have been hooked on them ever since. i have one in each coat pocket and one
that's always on my glock.

they're great for temporarily blinding tangos at night while you acquire your sight picture ; )
