In the split seconds as you shoulder your rifle to defend yourself and your family, clear visibility is crucial. Many home-defense scenarios occur at night, so you'll be flying blind without an external light source. That's why it's often advisable to have a bright and reliable flashlight mounted to your bedside gun.
We've previously written about the SureFire Scout Light series, which are designed for weapon-mounted applications. The company has recently announced the expansion of this line with seven new Scout Light configurations.
Each of these lights includes a dual switch tail cap, which allows for both standard push-button activation and activation using the included remote pressure switch. The new lights also feature included rail mounts, either a standard M75 thumbscrew mount, an RM45 offset mount, or an ADM quick-disconnect mount.
Here's a list of the seven new models for 2017:
- M312C – 3 Volt Scout Light with DS07 Switch Assembly and RM45 Offset Mount
- M322C – 3 Volt Scout Light with DS07 Switch Assembly and ADM Quick-Detach Weapon Mount
- M603V – 6 Volt Vampire Scout Light with DS-SR07-D-IT Switch Assembly and M75 Thumbscrew Mount
- M612U – 6 Volt Scout Light with DS07 Switch Assembly and RM45 Offset Mount
