Streamlight ProTrac Rail Mount HL-X Laser

Streamlight has always been a big name in illumination. The Streamlight ProTac Rail Mount HL-X Weapon Light is at the top. It is a unique gun-mounted tactical light, that offers a combination of features that helps it stand out among the best.

Streamlight has integrated an aiming laser with the white C4 LED illuminator that reflects the latest in CQB & Defense illumination technology for weapons. When I say bright, I mean really bright. The 1000 Lumen LED can easily incapacitate anyone at the business end of this light. It includes a rechargeable Streamlight 18650 battery providing about 1 1/2hrs of continuous runtime on high and over 20hrs on low. The unique rail clamp is designed to quickly and securely attach/detach from any weapon with a MIL-STD-1913 rail. It allows the windage and elevation screws for the laser sighting in proper orientation in any mounted position. The one handed on/off & tighten interface keeps the user’s hands away from muzzle when attaching and detaching.

I definitely recommend the Streamlight ProTac Rail Mount HL-X Weapon Light for any rifle carbine or submachine gun. The versatility, brightness, and features makes this a top pick in my book. I would say its only drawback is the weight. It comes in at a staggering 10.8 ounces. Which makes your weapon that much heavier!  But overall it looks, feels, and works great! Additionally, Streamlights Lifetime Warranty make it a solid choice.
