Lily X. ★★★★★

Snapped this onto my subcompact and the fit is flush, no overhang past the muzzle like my old light had. The paddle switches are easy to hit with my trigger finger without shifting my grip. Bright enough to clearly light up my hallway at night.

William S. ★★★★★

The red laser is dead-on with my carry ammo right out of the box, no fiddling needed. The 500 lumen beam is way brighter than I expected for something this small, and the paddles are easy to hit without changing my grip.

Richard E. ★★★★★

Snapped this onto my P365 and it sits nearly flush with the muzzle, so it doesn't snag when I carry it. The red laser was dead-on right out of the box, and the light is plenty bright for a dark hallway. Honestly forgot it was even mounted until I needed it.
