Videos tagged with Weapon Light Failure

This guide details two essential techniques for simultaneously handling a handgun and a flashlight, as demonstrated by J. Quirarte, a law enforcement instructor. It covers the Harries-style grip, taught at the police academy for stabilizing the weapon, and the FBI technique, which positions the light away from the body to mitigate threat response. These methods are crucial for scenarios where a weapon-mounted light may fail or is not available.

This video details significant reliability issues experienced with multiple Surefire weapon lights, including the X300U, XC1, and the M640DFT Dual Fuel scout light. The presenter, Brass Facts, recounts failures such as broken coils, non-functional switches, lights not turning off, and lights shutting off under recoil or dimming significantly. Multiple RMA attempts with Surefire are described as largely unsuccessful, leading to a negative assessment of the brand's current quality and customer service for these specific products.
