Reddit reviews Streamlight 69240 TLR-4 Compact Rail Mounted Tactical Light with Laser Sight - 125 Lumens, Black

Nonsense. Virtually all of the points that you made are completely moronic. Lasers do indeed make aiming quicker and easier. They're also not hard to see and they're not hard to turn on. They also don't have to be perfectly zeroed to be effective in a typical self-defense scenario. And they are indeed extremely intimidating. And in order to avoid the batteries dying on you, simply change them every 6 months just like with your weapon light (which use the same battery with a laser/light combo).

Use common sense and your own experience when deciding what to use for self-defense. If you feel that a laser will help you, then ignore the faux-expert forum/reddit idiots and go for it.

Something like this should work great for most people.

Now, I'm not saying that I believe that all firearms should have lasers on them. I really only think that lasers make sense for genuine military and police operators since it allows other members of your team to target a hostile. I also don't really think that lasers are needed for home defense guns, either. A simple light attachment is much more practical. But there's still no real downside to putting a laser on your home dense gun. It's simply a matter of personal preference.

TLR-4 for under $94

The Streamlight TLR-4 fits your bill quite nicely. However, I would advise dropping the laser and getting the TLR-3 instead.

There's also the TLR-4 which is considerably cheaper than the TLR-2.


I have no experience with the TLR-4 but I do have the TLR-3 (One without the laser) and I really like it a lot. Its lightweight and small but still very bright.

Saying that though, I really love the TLR-1s that my dad has. Its more durable and brighter than the TLR-3. Right now on amazon its on sale and I would buy it over the TLR-4. Its strobe function would be more useful than a laser.

Check out the pictures and let me know if you're interested in it, people have put it on their rifles on here, the keys will fit all styles of picatinny rails.

I think a streamlight employee messed up the title but it is a TLR4 with red dot light.

I am also looking and have done some research into this. Here is link to a green laser with flashlight that seems to be pretty well recommend. I havent ordered mine yet so this recommendation is only based on some quick searching and minimal reading.

Here's a good Streamlight for around $100... They can go for a little more, and a little less. If you're really set on getting a laser, this may be a good option for you.

Just to fuck around with, right? Try a TLR-4. There's nothing wrong with a laser on a range toy.

GG&G for the rail. It's about the cheapest non-hokey solution; they make a magazine cap spacer for the 870 that has a sling mount and Picatinny rail on it. I have one (870 mount on a Remington Model 11) and it's great, and puts a light with a tailswitch right where your left hand would need to be to operate it.

Lightwise, Streamlight makes good stuff. Alternately, Surefire mil-surp stuff that ends up on ebay. Specifically, I'd go with this or a used Surefire 951. The 951 is old tech and the bulb doesn't last nearly as long as modern stuff, but for something you're going to function check once a month it's perfectly adequate.

The [Streamlight TLR-4] (https://www.amazon.com/Streamlight-TLR-4-Light-Laser-Black/dp/B0077RHYWQ) is just over $100 on Amazon right now.

Let the haters hate. If you want a light/laser combo, get one. I like mine. I shoot well, but thought hey, might be fun to have a laser.... and it is fun. It has a toggle so you can select to use just the light, use both, or just the laser. Its bright enough for HD without being too blinding.

I picked mine up for like $90. If you get this now, you'll still have enough $$ for several hundred rounds of training ammo to get familiar with your new laser/light!

Why not go for the one with the laser?

$111 + prime.

Yes, it should fit.

How much were you planning? A quick search showed models similar to what you’re describing for about $100. Here’s something similar, but made by Streamlight. It will be infinitely better for about the same price.

I don't know about sub $100, but close to it is the TLR 4 by Streamlight. I have it and love it.
