Love the brightness and how little space it takes up on your duty belt.

Has nothing on the new Streamlight LEB with strobe.

great for a back up flash light. and works even better if you use rechargeable battery or add a red filter cover to presurve night vision when walkin on trails

I HAD MINE SENCE 2005 SO FAR SO GOOD THE BEST LITTLE LIGHT I EVER HAD,.GOOK JOB SURE FIRE!

I would actually go with the 6Pd with the crenelated bezel. Its a great light, small enough for a pocket but bright enough to be used as a backup or even stand alone self defense tool.

had mine for 10 years, still works great

Kickin little light. I have two, one for my duty belt, one for my unmarked vehicle. You can't have too many of these. The great thing about this thing is it's always on your belt instead of laying in your car or in the charger.

this flashlight is small and versitile and easy to conseal.

Great flashlight...I own two of them. The only flaw I found was that it went through batteries extremely fast and became costly to operate as a regular patrol flashlight...made more for special services.

Good Lite

This is a good pocket utility light. It goes well in tactical sistuations.

works well but goes through batteries like water makes it expensive to run.

This is an awesome, bright light. I agree with some of the reviews about having the D model self defense bezel. You can purchase a recharger attachment for it on the Sure Fire web site. I carry this as my back up to my trusty old Mag light only because my company provides that for us to use as well as the batteries. Rather use theirs up then mine, but when I need light it is right there on my hip in my Sure Fire holster I bought online for $19.

If it didn't go threw a but load of batterys every mounth it would be perfect...

Excellent flashlight, however it uses alot of batteries. The button on the bottom that you use to operate the light is ultra sensitive and will turn on with ease esp when sitting don. Otherwise a good light all around

I picked mine up used, one year old for thirty bucks. Two years later it still works like a charm. great light.

Good light, easy to use. Only problm I have is no warning when batteries go dead, you just have no light.

Great flashlight. Very bright, however battery life is short. Best to keep a spare set of batteries nearby (which aren't cheap either). Works well on duty with the holster, also minimizes accidental activation of the sensitive button.

Great flashlight!! I have had one for years when they first came out. It has served me served me welll. During a Gang Operation I took it out of my Tactical Vest and found that the light had be deployed for a period of time. It got so hot that it created a bubble in the lens, but the light still work. Soon after that I visited with a Sales Rep from Surfire at the ILEETA Conference when it was in Albuquerque. He told me to call Surfire and they would sent me a replacement bezel. A year went by and nothing came in the mail. A year later I called Surfire again and the new bezel arrived in week. It fit my 6P perfectly and was the newer verison so I was happy!! Battery life is short though.

Very bright even without being an LED. Mounts almost any rifle with ease and batteries last very long.

This is one of the many Surefire lights I have and love all of them. The light is dependable but if you are using the high output bulb don't expect long battery life.

I carry this light in my duty bag just in case my other flashlight starts dying while in the field. I am impressed with the durability and amount of light this puts off for the size. Great tactical light for entries etc.

The batteries only lasted about 6 months for me....that was the only downside.

Great secondary light for me. I love it very dependable.

Very light and compact but goes through too many expensive batteries.

this is a very good light. compact and lots of light!

One of the brightest lights on the market (especially if you buy the upgraded bulb from 60 lumens to 120 lumens). The tail cap button is excellent for tactical use (as well as preserving the battery life) but that’s just the problem the "battery life" is only an hour long (upgraded bulb is only 30min) and the batteries are too expensive to keep buying at that level of wear. They should have made this rechargeable.

I wish the batteries lasted longer, but my 6P is great. It really takes a beating, and is small enough to fit in my pocket.

I've carried the same one for over 12 years, and love it.

Samll but a very bright light. easy to carry but will do the big jobs.

I LOVE THIS LIGHT! I've owned one, sadly I had let it go a few years ago when I was in a different field, but I will definitely pick up another one as soon as I can. One recommendation: If you are concerned with the lack of time allowed for use, I would suggest switching to the LED head, it increases the life of the 3volt lithium batteris to almost 100 hours instead of the 60 minutes of use you get with the standard bulb.

A great light. The primary beam is painfully bright if you're on the business end of the light, and the secondary beam around the pre-focused beam fills an entire pitch-black room with light. A downside is that it rapidly goes through expensive 123A Lithium batteries, with a cost of $4 per hour to operate.

Great as a backup light! Battery life is a little short to use as you're main flashlight unless you keep spare batteries with you

great flashlight, plenty of light decent price

Had mine for years, add an LED bulb and its probably one of the best out there,,,helps the batteries last longer too.

Light weight great flashlight.

I love my little SureFire light and the retention holder. Always got a light weight light when I need it.

Great light, but the batteries don't last long, and the bulb is expensive.

yea its a great light but yet alot of money to keep up with it

This is a good flashlight. I have had two of them for about 15 years and they have not let me down. Very bright, and durable. Use them in the salt water, and now on land. Never any problems. Took me a while, but found out to buy the batteries from surefire instead of a drugstore. MUCH CHEAPER!

A great, compact and very bright flashlight. great for blinding someone coming at you.

This little guy kinda set the stage for the newer smaller brighter lites...
