"As u can tell from other reviews...light is bright, but good luck fitting it on ANYTHING. And!...if u manage to get it on your gun...good luck getting it off.

"DOES NOT REPLICATE THE REAL M3

I bought this to set up a training pistol I could use with my real world holster setups, some very expensive.

The picture LOOKS like the Insight / Streamlight M3.

The picture lies.

The bezel is almost twice as long as a M3. This means any holster you have for a M3, the lamp assembly is going to stick out of the bottom.

The body is a 1/3rd longer and also wider than the real world version.

In short, this WILL NOT FIT in a regular holster for the M3.

The build quality of this replica is sort of sturdy. The body should take some abuse. The bezel is metal, and I didn't check to see what the light cover was made of. The switch is flimsy, and bends. The momentary rarely works, and is sticky. Constant does work. It is about as bright as the real one. I haven't tried the zoom (adjust beamwidth) feature.

It is ok for the price if you are buying the gun/light BEFORE you are holster shopping, or if you're using a soft holster system. It is NOT ok, if you are trying to use the real holsters. Had I not sanded the sides down in a failed attempt to make it fit, I would send it back. :(

TL;DR - not an accurate replica, like a bloated version.

"Bought this to go on my KWA USP.45 Full size, and there are a few things that I have to say about it

Ships with no batteries, or any way to tell you what type of batteries it takes (Two(2) CR-123's)

Is a lot wider than it looks in the images, you'll feel goofy with it on a 1911 or something similar, because it's so wide.

Switch to turn on and off is flimsy and made of what looks like ABS Plastic, one of the caps fell off before I even got the light on my gun, and it took a good five minutes to put it back on.

I haven't tested its brightness, but I know that 230 Lumens is plenty.

So far, I don't feel too impressed with the light. I wouldn't recommend it for the price it's at now.

"I bought this to mount on my G&P M4.

Pros: Extremely bright light, will light up a dark hallway or room.
Easy rail mounting system
Only takes two CR123A batteries

Cons: The switch is terrible. The flashlight itself is made of metal, but the cap for the batteries is made of plastic. There's a flimsy switch that you can select for temporary lighting and permanent. This jams and it eventually broke. I only got to use it one time. I didn't even use a full battery charge.
