Former SEAL Mark Owen recently posted this photo of a Princeton Tec Switch Rail weapon light mounted to a pistol. The original concept by Sentinel Design and Austere Provisions Company was to provide low level light on a rifle rail. Sort of a navigation light.
Owen is using it on his pistol, which certainly offers a low volume light and might be just what you are looking for, depending on your application.

Ha! That’s the first thing I tried to do was pop it on my Glock. Neat little lights.
Very cool format. I wonder if a 2×2032 version could be made that did 30-40 lumens? That would be a great CCW light.
That or possibly a micro USB rechargeable version the same size. The new micro USB lights can be incredibly bright in a very small package.
If it can fit on a HK USPS without some sort of contraption, I’m in.
USP
That’s a HK45ct it has a 1913 rail on the dust cover.
Up close & personal.
If only the Surefire or Streamlight types would do a low-mode or incorporate a 10 lumen navig LED, then you wouldn’t need to put a toy light on your gun.
