Been there for awhile. I got an app for my phone a few weeks ago to remind me to take my meds in time. When I was filling out the personal info, the gender selections were male, female, and other. Good thing I'm old. -

That would be nice... -
Well. It ain't gonna be GOA, or any of the other opinions with 10 followers. The NRA made a mistake when they gave on bump stocks after Vegas. I understand that one, but think it's a mistake. But, the purest of intentions don't mean #### in the hands of somebody with no power. The NRA swings a big bat. So does Trump. The difference between the two is that Trump was born without a sphincter muscle. When it gets there, it just falls out. He is backing away from some of that "good legislation" now. I don't care what he says, so much. I care what he actually does.

GT. You're an artist, man. Been saying it for a good while. Now, I can't afford you anymore :) . Actually, I can. Just gotta drill back and find the best of. -
OK. I ordered a TK 16. Same lumen output as the PD35 tac, but a better throw, and different controls. The TK16 is fatter. Might be a great gun light too.

I love my PD35 Tac. Fenix is good stuff. Not sure I'll let it ride in the radiator support for a few months just to test its staying power.

Tight upper AR receivers?

Praise Jesus! I knew you wasn't dead!

Working now. I actually shared that on Facebook a couple weeks ago. I still laughed.

You must be on the secret #### list, like me.

I may be slow, but I don't get it.

OK... I have a story. Not a good lead for cheaper lights, but maybe a reason to go for the better in some cases. I don't have a whole lot of loyalty to any of my lights, because I don't always carry one. I usually grab what's close. The Ti3 gets used a lot, probably because I have 3 of them. I like the Surefire Titan Plus better than the Ti3, even though it's a little bigger. Anyway, in one of these threads, my friend OhShoot mentioned that he carries a Surefire Sidekick. After he mentioned it, I bought one and threw it into the pile. A few months ago, it came up missing. I found it a couple days ago, stuck down in the radiator support of my truck. Thing had made several trips to Kentucky with rain, snow, salt, etc. I grabbed it, wiped the salt off, and fired it up. Still fully charged, still lit on all 3 power levels, and no damage to the finish. So, I called OhShoot up yesterday and bragged about the Sidekick. Then, I got on the B&H website and ordered one of these... https://www.surefire.com/everyday-carry-flashlight-edcl2-t.html I know Surefire is expensive, but has also proven to me that they are really good stuff. Not gonna throw away my Fenix PD35, but may carry the new Surefire when I need a bigger light.
