    Insight M3LED

    Today during my quarterly qualification my pistol light repeatedly flew off the rail of my HK P2000. I have shot this pistol/light many times before without incident. My rail is undamaged. The light appears undamaged.

    I sent off an email to Insight seeking guidance. Does anyone have experience with this issue?

    At least I have a Streamlight TLR-1 I can remove from my personal carbine until this situation is rectified.

    Insight returned my email first thing this morning and is sending me replacement parts.

    Great customer service so far.

    Lets hope the parts fix the issue.

    Is it possible the wrong attachment bar was on the light? I know my m6 came with two different ones: 1 for picatinny rails and another for Glock rails. Is it possible you had the wrong one on?

    Glad to hear that Insight got back to you quickly and is willing to rectify the situation.

    Out of every 100 men, ten shouldn't even be there, eighty are just targets. Nine are the real fighters and we are lucky to have them for they make the battle. Ah, but the one...one is a Warrior, and he will bring all the others back.

    I honestly do not think that is the case, as I had shot probably 1000 rounds through it without any issues. That was a mixture of qualifications and hard use training.

    So is this an admission of illegally possessing US military/government owned items?

    So you are in the military?
    Because your other posts certainly don't make that seem likely or plausible.
    But hey, there's always that 10% isn't there?
