Surefire makes great kit. I’ve been running the cloud defensive Rein 3.0 and their offset mount for the last year both in classes and in training. Worthy of a look. Super clean cable management nice and tight to the handguard. I’ve been beating this thing like it’s dating my sister and it hasn’t budged or flickered once. 8E052FD6-3C3C-4106-9F1F-F5E746EDA98C.jpeg 88AFD5DB-9DEF-4856-86B9-75A29B676747.jpeg 87FE4AAD-37E4-4AAA-8A32-BA3434480F1E.jpeg

I looked at those but I think CD is out of my wheelhouse for what I need... but they look bad ass. They are Pricey as hell and a little chunky. How much Candela does the average person need though? 100k is crazy.

Yeah the candela is nuts. I do a lot of low light/no light classes and have learned a lot since I first started teaching and taking classes. I used to think 500 was too much cuz I just didn’t know better and had poor light technique/discipline. Now, I want the goddamn sun Lolol.

Old faithful. Just wrapped up a season of teaching. Just passed the 35,000 round mark on this Gen5 G17 and it was time for a fresh barrel and springs. Ready for another 35,000. View attachment 398839

Given the way I shoot pistols, I'm pretty sure I'd never be able to tell whether the barrel is shot out... lol. But is there a noticeable loss of accuracy (like with a rifle)? Is 35k rounds about right or are there other wear points on the barrel that go first? Thanks!

I started to notice groups opening up pretty significantly inside 15 yards and verified it on a bench rest. 35k is pretty damn good for a factory barrel in my experience. They will usually start losing significant accuracy long before they show any signs of actual wear. That being said, my Staccato P 2011 just hit 30,000 rounds and its groups are still 1/2 MOA at 20 yards so… I think it’s subjective.

Just finished setting up a new blaster for the 2024 teaching/training season. Giving the Glock 17 a break to try out something new and quite a few people in the industry seem to have a lot of good things to say about them.

It’s got some big shoes to fill. E873B6A8-2AD1-473A-9C13-50DF28F14FA1.jpeg
