    Streamlight Poly-Tac LED

    Will it last? Is it durable? Anyone see any problems with them yet?

    A bright spot in the SL line. A leading LED option at that price point. I know several folks who are using them as back-up or contingency lights, and a few on guns. They seem to be doing well. No long term data yet, but so far so good.

    I too am interested in seeing what others think of these. The price really makes you look twice.

    I have two. For the price I paid I am very impressed. The clicky tailcap even fits on my G2.

    I've had two PolyTacs for a few months. Both are mounted on rilfes that I use to train with quite often. They have also been through a Magpul course and are running strong. I'm an SF fan, but for the pricepoint, you cant beat the SL PolyTacs LED's.

    i have one and i like it very much. i also have a stream light tlr-3 on my home defense glock 17. streamlights are the way to go. one thing i noticed with my polytac( and i would imagine any other plastic bodied light) is that if you have it mounted in a mount (like the vltor i have )and tighten the mount clamp to much, the flashlight body will actually squash a little bit wich messes up battery contact and can cause the light not to work. you just have to loosen the clamp a bit and find the sweet spot thats tight enough and not too tight. all in all i will purchase more streamlight products, they rock and the prices are more realistic than the other company, especially for us regular workinging class guys.

    Do these fit in standard G2 mounts?

    Thanks!

    I've got two in the VTAC mounts. They're a slightly smaller diameter than the G2, but not too small to get locked down. Not sure about other mounts that use more of a clamping system vs. the set screws of the VTAC. I have a Larue mount at the house I can try one out in when I get home...?

    Thanks.

    I'm specifically interested in VLTOR mounts.

    No info on the VLTOR mounts, but my G2L measured at about 1.025", and my Polytac LED measured at about .975" (both along the ribbed section of the body).
