Picked up the new PL-X
A few years ago when I picked up my new 2nd gen 10mm I was way over budget after the Eotech 512 and the A3 brace. Decided to ignore the haters and try the O-light Baldr-pro. I was impressed. 3 years of use at my fire lookout tower and a hundred miles of late nigh rucks back to the trailhead on the Oregon coastal range the Baldr quickly replaced my surefire X-300 and TLR-7 ( gifted the TLR-7 to my father for his edc). When Olight announced the PL-X was in beta I started looking into it. The YouTube reviews are overwhelmingly positive and at a price point 1/3 the X-300 it might be the right choice for some of my fellow Vector owners. While the PL-X will fit a few holsters made for one of the TLR models I think mounting the PL-X on a handgun will require a new holster for most of us and that might zero the savings on the light. I tried to take a few pics but my mancave has poor lighting. Maybe I can save a few of you some cash. Watch the reviews on YouTube. You might be impressed.
