SureFire Integrated Forend Shotgun WeaponLight ?

[Ian]

Any experiences with this light system?
Almost the same cost as the 870 Express.

It's worth it. Period.



I use a 6P on a Vltor Scout mount on my M4 at work, and the ability to maneuver without fumbling with a light is critical when working in near-dark and dark situations, even though I have NVGs and IR laser aiming capability.... they don't do well at short range, the light is for that.

Having been on the recieving end in a hostile situation of the light in question (lit up by some U.S Marshals).. you won't see much for a few minutes after being blinked.

Thanks. It looks like it would be worth the investment.
Is there any kind of flashlight/shotgun technique out there that I could use in the meantime?

Ian,

I'm an authorized Surefire dealer. Before you order from Surefire, send me an IM. I can probably save you some $$.

BEst money I ever spent on my 870.

I love mine. I got an SC1 pellican case and a spare bulb assy from www.lighthound.com to keep an extra assy and 6 batteries in.

Definitely worth your investment.

I love mine, worth every penny. Looking back, it should have been the very first modification I did to the 870. Now it's the last thing I would take off.

Big +1. My favorite mod.

what kind of case do you guys carry your 870s in. I have the knoxx specops stock with the powerpack (2nd best mod) and the surefire 618fga (1st best mod) and i have been looking for a good case to carry it in. also one last thing www.mesatactical.com has a 8 round side saddle for the left side and a 4round side saddle that mounts behind the ejection port and i'm thinking about adding this. Opinions please. :thumbsup:

how tight does it fit? is there any twisting play?

I have a 6-shell side saddle from Mesa Tactical on my 870 and I cannot say enough good things about it. The quality is MUCH better than the Tacstar side saddle, it holds the shells alot better and is actually a little lighter than the Tacstar.

It is pricey, but it is worth the money.

Zzzarkt Thanks, I have the tacstar and i took it off just because it didn't hold the shells well. thanks for the info i will go ahead and make the purchase. I'm still looking for a good soft carry case :wavey:

neeko as far as fit there is no twist or play in the forend whatsoever it fits very tight and it's very comfortable and very well balanced. :thumbsup:
