That thing looks ridiculously clean already, the compact setup with the tucked can has such a good balance to it. For lights I’d probably lean Surefire Mini Scout or Modlite PLHv2 if you want something bombproof, but honestly a Streamlight HLX Pro would fit the vibe and save you a few hundred bucks

Absolutely loving this.

This is sick! I was worried the ProTac HL-X would be too big, but this looks sick with the YHM R9! What optic is that?

Streamlight vs Surefire

Streamlight makes excellent pistol lights (TLR-1 variants for full sized and TLR-7 variants for compact) and decent rifle lights (ProTac 2.0 and ProTac HL-X) Surefire makes excellent rifle lights (640 and 340 variants) and decent pistol lights (X300 variants for full sized) Surefire: Made in USA $$$

Remember when MagLites were thought to be really strong and bright?

My current EDC is a 6 year old Streamlight ProTac HL-X. I love it and it fits neatly in my front left pocket. It’s got 1000 lumens on high. Beats the chit out of Maglight, but no more useful as a compliance tool than a decent tactical pen.
