nvm….looks like all their colors are OOS.
Yes. It's a heavy mofo. I sold mine. I prefer my OG Rein even, it's lighter and you can locate pressure pad separate from light plus the light also has a switch on the tailcap as a failsafe to the wired pad. I have the OG reign on a rifle and don't see a reason to take it off. I also have the owl I sold, a surefire scout 600 (overrated), and a modlite.

Of all I'd recommend a Rein. Any Rein.

Outdoors, I think candela kind of has to win. Punching through "photonic barriers" aka it's lighter in between where you are and where you are illuminating or whatever, or lighting up the shadow/dark area with an environment where some is lit and some isn't (urban/suburban, some light sources, shadows, etc). Indoors if you are using baseboard or ceiling bounce to light up the room, it matters not. But indoors if you want to see the entire other room and the whole wall to wall direct, you'd want wider beam.

But I speak only from theory

Not if the resources needed to produce them take from other more profitable products. Which, ultimately, is why I believe they're not regularly stocking it. The Rein just does everything better and likely has better margins. Even with the price difference, I doubt they ever sold more OWLs than Reins since the Reins are better across the board.

You won't be upset with a Rein. It's worth the extra cost. If you really must wait for a sale, Black Friday is about four months away. If they don't do a sale before then, I'm sure they'll have a good BF deal.

Cloud Defensive has sales with really good deals a few times per year. They even through in free gifts. I would expect Labor Day to be their next big sale.

With such high candela of the rein 3.0, any worries of being inside with it and being too bright bouncing off walls or anything if using as HD gun?

Probably king of the hill honestly right now. They are one of the few companies that are constantly updating and improving their lamps. Hell it took Surefire like 16 years to update the X300

Holy chit at the judge in Oregon ruling that only guns in common use for self defense- not hunting or target shooting- are protected by the 2A

Wonder how fast the fudds will move if their M1A is suddenly in jeopardy.

Sick. Might have to hop on rein 3.0. Cool to see they now have legacy bodies in case you’re not fond of their proprietary switch and want to use other companies switches.

Currently I’ve got an inforce wml so looking for upgrade.

The cable management of their switches is extremely good.

My local range was also doing a promotion for the Echelon yesterday.


I just lost self control and purchased one the first day they were available. Wasn't expecting to see them in stock in person on day one.

100% get a Rein. They just did a sale over the weekend (may still be going on, actually) for the first XXX orders of a Rein 3 you also get one of their handheld lights for free, pretty cool.

I am a big fan of CD's switches. I see some people trash them but those same people are also running other lights, so I'm not sure how much experience they actually have with the CD switch. I haven't looked into it enough because I don't care, but I'd be curious what people complain about with the switches. I used to only run SF for my lights but now I'm fully on board with CD. Their EPL (pistol light) will break the internet when it's finally released.

Another question for you guys.

My first/only rifle build was carbine length gas system. It’s been great, but now that I’m more knowledgeable about it, a mid length upper has started to be more appealing.

Worth buying another upper to have as a new setup?

Not really, unless your current upper is over gassed or sucks in some other way.

But if you plan to go suppressed it only makes sense to get a shorter quality upper.

No.

For one thing, wall bouncing, lumens is what will get you back, not candela

But you want all of both of them. Just don't be a dumbass and shine the light at a white wall four feet in front of you and look at it in the dark

I’ve never assembled a AR. Which was why years ago I bought a PSA kit as I had a lower already. It’s basically one of these AR build for dummies.

https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-...istol-kit.html

What tools do I need to assemble it? I did some googling but most were complete builds. The upper is already assembled.

I’ll do more research but any help is appreciated.

AFT would like a word unless you've got a stamp for that as an SBR.

Just sayin', since you're posting this publicly already

And if you're spending the money and going through the tape for an SBR, you can do better than a ****ing psa come on bro

Also 11.5>10.5. That's just basic maths

That’s not the actual kit. I just searched PSA AR Kit and that was the first one that popped up. I’m guessing they are all basically the same builds. It’s 16” barrel. I have had it for years laying around.

That brings up a question. What makes that kit a SBR?

Any specific tools? I have most common garage tools.

What makes that kit an SBR is a barrel under 16" long and a pistol brace which the AFT has decided to change a law regarding and declare pistol braces are now legally stocks so it's not a braced pistol any more, it's an SBR. Gotta be kind of living under a rock to not have an idea on those shenanigans at this point lol

Not that SBR's should be regulated more than a regular title 1 firearm to begin with (not that regular title 1 firearms should be as regulated as they are, either), but, we've all known the braced pistol thing was really just an end-around the SBR law anyway.

Again, not that the SBR restrictions should exist, because they shouldn't. But, they do.
