Streamlight 88126 ProTac Rail Mount HL-X Pro 1000-Lumen High Candela Multi-Fuel Long Gun Light, Includes Jack-Cap, M-Lok kit, Pressure Switch, Tool, and CR123A Lithium Batteries, Black

Just installed and haven’t been able to take it to the range for seeing how the flashlight holds up to abuse.I will say all the other stream light products I use on duty never fail (with the exception of batteries)The flashlight itself is easy to install in my case I did so on a picattiny rail. If you have a longer barrel it will cast a shadow. The build materials are very sturdy and tightens down really good on the rail just with fingers. Easy to remove as well.The push button was kind of difficult to get on the rail with the picattiny attachment but I was able to secure it after a few tries then zip tied it down which probably wasn’t necessary. The set comes with a few different size zip ties for cable management and mounting.The flashlight has high beam and strobe setting on the push button but does not stay on unless you hold it down which is actually ideal for its purpose. You can toggle on with the button on the jack cap.Super bright flashlight compared to other stream light products I have. I haven’t been able to see how far the light casts but imagine it provides good illumination.It uses both the rechargeable batters and standard stream light batteries.This flashlight is for mounting only.

Very bright, comes with everything you need to mount on an M-LOK or picatinny rail. My favorite weapon mounted light by far!

For the price, you can't beat these lights. My first light has been mounted for over 2 years with roughly 3k rounds through the rifle and I haven't had one issue with the light or pressure switch. I now own 4 of these lights. Highly recommended

Best light to get unless you jump to a Surefire scout.

Inexpensive, solid build, amazing customer support. Buy it and you wont regret it. Goes together easy, its durable, bright, and simple to use. The flood and beam are punching way above its class. Great add for value price. Buy more and be happy.

Disclaimer: I have run many high end weapon mounted lights and currently run three other streamlights on my CCW weapons and EDC rotation. I have used Surefire scouts, Modlites, and have seen Cloud Defensive Rein beams in action during live fire events I have attended.The Good:1) Tight hotspot with 50,000 candella improves your hot spot and blinding power to any suspected threat. Inside of 25 years this light is basically blinding. I have shined myself in the face with this at distance compared to other streamlights with 25K candella, and Fenix lights with 18K candella, there is a noticeable improvement in blinding power.2) The light also stays cool while running on high as compared to other lights in this category, no noticeable step down on longer run times.3) Tail cap push button is nice and tactile (more on the tail switch later...)4) M-Lok mounting system is amazing. Nice and tight up against the handguard.The Bad:Two parts: Beam rings & loose tail switch connector1) As shown in the pictures, the beam profile and head design leads to an INSANE AMOUNT of rings in the beam of light, these rings are all different colors and span from the inner hot spot to the flood light. In most scenarios I can count approximately 5 rings of light. This isn't a concern for long range applications, but anything within 25-50yards, you are going to notice these rings.Why this is bad? In any CQB or indoor/close range situation, these rings can deflect off walls and lead you to focus on them/disrupt your field of view. If these rings didn't exist, I would give this like a 4/5.2) The tail switch connector is horrible. It is WAY TO LOOSE for fighting rifle/duty rifle applications. Such similar platforms like the surefire and cloud defensive are much tighter fitting, taking good effort to remove them. This tail switch can be easily flicked out accidentally and is about as secure as your iphone cord plugging into your iphone, but looser.3) HLX-PRO only adopted the momentary on tape switch, so the only way to use constant on is with the tailcap itself. I would have liked to see the tapeswitch have both function like the old HLX.To perfect this light:1) Remove the 4-5 rings in the beam of light profile, that is absurd.2) Improve the retention of the tailswitch mount into the back of the light, IE Surefire style.3) Utilize the tape switch with dual function (previously found on the HLX model)Due to these issues I cannot recommend this light, unless you love a bizarre amount of rings in your beam profile.As a note, I have posted a video on YouTube about this, I cannot link it hear but you can search for Protac HLX Pro Beam Shot Comparison and you will find it.

This light is very durable, extremely bright, and throws a nice beam of light. Would buy this brand over the more expensive brand any day of the week.

Buy american they said…. Well I did and it was disappointing. Light flickers, in 2 different ways, one is under recoil and the other is, I think, because of the pressure pad and you can’t fix it, I’ve done everything the internet has suggested and nothing fixes it. The connector from the pad to the light is barely held in place. After all this crap… I bought an olight Odin and guess what, I’ve not had an issue at all
