Last spring I was hunting bobcats with hounds near Dilley, Texas. One of the gentlemen in attendance had a small flashlight (just over 4 inches long and an inch in diameter) that would shine down the sendero for at least 200 yards. I wrote down the name of the light and when I got back to the office found that the company had several different models. I looked through their catalog and found a tactical light powered by (3)AAA batteries and had a battery life of 136 hours. They advertised the effective range to be over 700 feet which is perfect for a shooting light.In my opinion, a perfect shooting light is small, lightweight, should not have an external power source and can be easily attached or removed from a rifle. If the tactical light was the perfect light, all that was needed was a means to attach it to your rifle or shotgun; a sturdy mounting system that would allow the hunter to attach two round objects that are approximately 1″ in diameter to each other. The finish of the mounting system should be such that it does not scratch any surfaces. While we will continue to market the SL-18 Shooting Light for closer range shooting, we feel that the tactical light and bracket will be very popular with the night time predator caller.
See you outdoors,
Gary
