Gmconn 1200 Lumens Rail Mounted Compact Pistol Light LED Strobe Tactical Gun Flashlight with 2 x CR123A Lithium Batteries

I don't write very many reviews, but I thought I should for this light. I just received the Gmconn 1200 lumen light and so far I'm impressed for the price. It is 6 times cheaper than the TLR-1 HL of which I have 3 and just as bright. It seems solid and well made, but I cannot rate the durability yet. It takes the same batteries as the HL, but does not have the hardware to tailor to a specific firearm fit so the switch may be farther out than desired. It mounted ok on my firearm. Time will tell on the battery life and durability.

I originally went to Bass Pro Shops looking for a Streamlight TLR-1, but I couldn't justify the high price tag. I decided to take a chance on this light instead, and after owning it for over a year, I can confidently say it was the right decision. First, durability: I have put this through the ringer and drop-tested it multiple times, and it is still fully operable and reliable. The size and form factor are almost identical to the TLR-1, fitting my setup perfectly. It is super easy to operate and exceptionally bright. The only minor observation is that it is slightly heavier than the name-brand version, likely due to more robust materials, but it is hardly noticeable while shooting. With top-tier features without paying premium prices, do not hesitate to use this one. It’s an amazing, durable light. I hope this helps.

I purchased this weapons light to be mounted on a Byrna less than lethal hand weapon, to be used in home defense by my parents. This light is solidly constructed and produces a very bright beam. The option to activate the strobe feature is also a plus. The on/off switch functions just as my much more expensive lights which are on my EDC firearms.

I will start by saying that I typically do not write product reviews on Amazon. But when there is a product that can save customers money I will do so. These lights are awesome! I have run this light on one of my AR's for some time now, and through a few tactical night training courses. This light has performed flawlessly and can defiantly compete with the BIG MONEY brands. Numerous times I have promoted this light to my fellow shooters as they have been impressed with the quality, burn time and price. I now have a couple on assorted firearms. You will not be disappointed with this light.

This has been my duty light for the last 3 years or so. I've put roughly 1200 rounds down range with a 9mm with this mounted. At around 900 or so rounds is when I started having issues. The switch when you activate the light gets jarred loose on every shot and the light will turn off, even with the switch still in the on position. Now for the smaller bits, it has a nice design, I think it's like TLR 1/1HL size or so. The front led cover *is* plastic on mine, that could be an issue for durability or prolonged shooting. It's got a nice weight to it. And the mount is good. I used blue loctite and it hasn't loosened over the 3 years, I took it off and remounted it a few times as well. The coin key to tighten or loosen it was a nice touch. Just don't let it in your coin jar,.. Never see it again. When it *was* working fully, obviously it did get hot kind of quickly. The battery life is OK., I got the name brand batteries for it. If I had to buy it again.. Yea I probably would. I'm bummed that mine is currently having issues but I may break it open and see if I can't fix it. If you just want weight for range quals though, works nice. Coating is decent, little bit of slide wear and burning on the top but that's about it. If the internal switch was a bit more durable on mine, this would have been as easy 5 stars.
