Hey Surps, is that a G19, 23 or 32?
Also, is that an Emerson/Benchmade?
A guy at work used to sell the Fenix on the side. I tried it out but was disappointed with the tailcap on/off switch. Couldn't reach it when holding the flashlight in my fist because it was set too deeply. I got an E2D in the SureFire buy and it's great.The Fenix is a similar/comparable model to mine... brighter actually, at 100 lumens... but you pay for it, too.

I carry a AA LED Maglite at work because the battery life is so much longer, and I really don't need all that light to look under a desk to see a phone jack.
I was actually about to buy one when the guy retired - so no more local vendor. [sad2] So I decided to get in on the SureFire buy.Fenix has (correction: had) a new tactical switch that works great. They had it available on their 1xAA L1T light. I have it transformed to work with a CR123A and is fantastic. Looks like the switch is not being offered at current time though. Too bad. The lack of this type of switch is Fenix's only crutch.
I actually like the MagLite for the simple reason that I use it a LOT. And it's just too darned easy to reach down and grab it out of my PockIts holster. It'd be harder to reach in my pocket.I also highly recommend the AAA LOD light. Tiny, in my pocket all the time, and puts out as much light as most bigger lights with a very long run time. Blows away the AA Mag. Get one of these and you'll throw you AA mags in the trash. I did.
