Best under-barrel laser light combo for a pistol.

#1

Post by jlfornoff »

i have several pistols that i can put a light/laser/combo on and i haven't had much experience with any of them. i was looking at some laser/light combos but i'm not sure which one to get. the main gun i would like to focus on is my Ruger 57, but i also have a XD-S .40sw. so i am also looking for a light/laser/combo for a full size and a compact. what suggestions do you guys have?

Don't have on yet but I'm leaning towards a Steiner SBAL-PL.

I picked up on of the Olight BALDR Pro light/laser combos on one of their flash sales. Think it was about $100. It is a good setup, bright white light and bright green laser. I didn't want to spend a lot of money, so I am happy with that purchase. I would try to catch it on a sale, because the regular price is about $150, which still is not bad for what you get. Also, the QD is adjustable on this one, but it is not on their valkrie light.

If you absolutely "need" a laser, than the Streamlight TLR-2 HL is a good option for the full-size. For compact, the TLR-8 (single cell) is decent.
