Light recommendation

Which would be better for a HD gun, TLR-1S? Or TLR-1HL? Why?

 

[TacticalJeebus]

I've had both, and trained with lights, both indoors and outdoors, during the night and day. You can never have too many lumens. HL would be my choice. But I keep a TLR-1S on my G17 that is my EDC, or my G19 with an Inforce APL that I also EDC.

Waiting on the new APL that is supposed to be coming out in the next couple months.

Recently got a tlr-1hl and an apl so far they are both really nice. The apl is mor compact but the tlr is broght!

the new compact is out now i think.

cant go wrong with a tlr or apl. spend the extra $50 for a good name brand light JMO

+1 for thr HL, I run that on my M&P 2.0

Big fan of how easy the toggle is on the TLR line compared to the SureFire X300 line

Thanks for all the input guys. I was wondering about the whole "splashback" thing because I had read it online somewhere and obviously I have no experience with a light like this. Looks like I'm going to go with the tlr-1hl

ODT....didn't Cherokee Gun & Pawn have an outstanding deal on these lights a few months ago?

I've had a ton of lights and really like the TLR-1HL for rifle/pistol at the house. SUPER bright!

But I honestly prefer the APL for carry because you can barely unscrew the light and disconnect the battery. This will keep you from running the light on by accident during daylight edc. The toggle is a little more meaty vs the Streamlight as well.
