What brand of flashlights contend with Surefire?

[forgiven]

In terms of quality, warranty, lumens, features, etc....

I have two Surefires and am looking for something new...

What's wrong with Streamlight? I vastly prefer SL over SF.

Streamlight has shown some signs of improvement, and there are some bright spots in the product line. Still, they meet the exacting standards of only the lowest common denominator.

The Malkoff MD2 is just as good compared to the 6P or similar size SF lights. I'd carry SF and Malkoff on and off duty. SF has waaaayyyy more options as far as lumens, size and style of lights tho.

Here's my pairing of SF and MD. These two together could probably be a contender?

Stream light weapon lights suck in my experience. Their hand helds are ok but do not compete with Surefire. As for customer service I had two switch go out on the older M3 weapon light both just past the limited warranty Streamlight has and they would not replace either. The switch cost $65 when the light was only worth about $90 at the time.

Check out Elzetta lights. They use malkoff heads and put out some nice lights.
I've also heard good things about the inforce WML.

I never bought into the Surefire pricing and hype until I took a class with one of their reps and really got to see what exactly goes into the R&D for their lights. They might be a bit behind others when it comes to features but you know when a Surefire light hits the market it's ready to go and will be bombproof.

I've wanted to like Streamlight for a long time but three of the four Streamlight products I own have all shit the bed. Just can't see buying any more when a few more dollars gets me a light that lasts.

With a new LED upgrade my 10 year old 9P still rocks as a solid go-to light.
