I suppose your 6-D cell Maglite could be considered tactical because of its size and how you intend to use it. Just as somebody mentioned earlier in this thread, they were trained how to use the...

When it comes to flashlights, “tactical” is really only an identifier for a flashlight that is best suited for defensive, police and military use.

My decision to stray from Maglite and try some other brands is what infected me with my fetish for flashlights years ago. Before then a flashlight was a flashlight to me. Now I have lots (too many)...

Of those four favorite flashlights, if you were forced to get rid of three of them, which would be the one you kept? Can you specify the make and model, please?

This, too, is a great flashlight. It is almost identical to the SureFire mentioned above, but what’s better about this flashlight is its ability to use the 123A and the 18650 batteries.

These are all nice flashlights. That TK72R is a monster — not something you could throw in your pocket, but I can think of situations where it might come in handy. It is rated at 9,000 lumens on the...
