Metal_Molle_Attached

Alpha-Tac’s ExtremeBeam line of flashlights now has a modular attachment in the Metal Molle. Designed specifically for use with all ExtremeBeam XT8 flashlights, the Metal Molle turns a normally straight-bodied flashlight into a hands-free angled light with 720 feet of projection and three flexible usage settings. The Metal Molle is constructed from solid bar-stock aluminum and features dual shock pins for additional durability.

The Metal Molle was initially designed for European firefighters, and is a great option for those with wrist dexterity problems looking for a method to perform traditional flashlight tactical maneuvers. It’s also useful with industry, military, law enforcement, or anyone else looking for a durable, mountable, angled flashlight.
