FYI SSD, TLR-7 pic is goofed up.
Has anyone heard of a tape switch or modular rear cap for this?
My understanding is that the design of the TLR-7 was to allow for various tail caps.
These concealed carry lights have a major issue, many holster companies are switching away from tacoing blue guns, they are offering less and less customization.
I am not sure what you are saying here; a lack of holster availability for the TLR7/8s?
I recently acquired two of these TLR7s, and I have found that there are numerous quality holster makers that are already offering rigs for common carry guns with these lights.
Um, holster maker here. I offer stocking as well as custom products for the TLR-7 and TLR-8, as do many others. So I’m confused by your comment.
Does this look like a smaller version of the old school Glock xenon light to anyone else?
I had to do a google image search to refresh my memory on what the glock lights look like, I’m not really seeing it.
The fact that my Beretta px4 storm compact, (mid sized model,) is apparently the only gun in the family that this light won’t fit is killing me, I really had my hopes up.
Will these have battery drain issues in storage? Looks like an electronic switch.
