operation, but the G2X does not have a steel carry clip. Throw one in your tackle box, in
the glove box of your car, inside the storage compartment on your ATV or drop one in your coat pocket. If you lose it you are only out about $65. The price also makes the G2X a great birthday, Christmas or just because gift.
SureFire X300 Most modern, semi-automatic
handguns come with some sort of accessory rail and almost all tactical carbines have a multitude of mil-spec rails to mount everything from a light to a cell phone. (I’m not joking; you can purchase a mount to attach your iPhone to your rifle.) The idea of at- taching a light to your firearm makes good sense. It frees your other hand — which would otherwise be filled with a flashlight — for calling 911, opening doors and so on. The down- side to a weapon light on a handgun is it makes them almost impossible to carry concealed on a regular basis. Where weapon lights make sense
are on handguns or carbines that might be kept in the home for home defense or personal protection. I like the idea of having a bedside or house gun with a weapons light because I know that
in a dire circumstance,
I will be using my other hand to move kids around, call for help and to scratch my head because I’m not sure what I should do next. However, another downside to the weapon- mounted light is if you use the light to look at stuff, you are also pointing the gun at anything you look at. I have an older SureFire X200 I
mount on whatever handgun is living in my house. This light is no longer available but the newer X300 is. This compact, rail-mounted light weighs only 3.8 ounces, produces 170 lu- mens and retails for $249. SureFire’s X400 will cost you another $200 but it has an integrated laser. I used one of these on a carbine during a course at Gunsite and when it got dark I felt like I was cheating. *
