TLR-6 69290 GLOCK Rail Mount Tactical Light

A good light for the money. I bought this for a full size Glock, so a portion of the light is barely cut off. Overall, my intention was to minimize the footprint and save my bank account. The TLR-6 does just that. It fits securely, and the battery door does not pop open easily (I had to use a knife to install the batteries) like a couple reviews have stated. I have not tested how long the light holds up for, and honestly don't plan to. This is for home defense and if for whatever reason I notice the light dimming, I will just change batteries. The light is bright enough to illuminate a big room. Not even close to the TLR-2, but I did not want a full size light so I am happy with the results. I did shine the laser outside and it went about a football field to the treeline behind my house. Good enough for me, and I doubt you will EVER need it that far anyways. Zeroing was a breeze. I zeroed it at 15 feet. The laser is just barely above my sights. You can have both the laser, and light on at the same time, as I have shown in a picture. If you are like me, and just looking for something decent without killing your wallet, give this a try. Especially if you have a compact or a sub compact. I highly recommend this product. I have been using streamlight products since 2012, after switching over from surefires overpriced junk, and am so glad I did. I have NEVER had a bad streamlight product. Give this TLR-6 a shot. The only improvement they could make to this, is making the same exact version but for a full size, that takes cr123a batteries (and possibly with a green laser). They are very functional, don't get me wrong. But for the price and my needs, this design is more practical. Come on streamlight, make a tlr version for us 'full sized' guys. You can easily do it without the round ugliness and shiny rims. In order to toggle the light, laser, or both on, all you have to do is hard press one side and toggle with the other side. As far as practicality for use immediately after brandishing (unholstering), you would not have your finger on the trigger to do so. I honestly only consider these things as a backup anyways, and if I did need them, I would have enough time to toggle them in the first place. Every scenario has a counter scenario and it is what it is. If you knock a weapon light/led, then why TF are you carrying in the first place.... "I'd rather have it and not need it, than need it and not have it". -Everyone who EDC's. WARNING! Do NOT buy the 'recommended' Viridian batteries. Amazon has them pushed to the front and they are the ones with the green rubber around them. They do not work in the TLR-6 because of the green plastic around them. Buy another brand.

Great product. Easy to install and sight in. Holds tight to lower and feels like part of the gun after installation. Well designed in that on/off button is easily operated and batteries can be changed without having to remove entirely. Bright light and laser that stays on target after hundreds of rounds.

Perfect fit, strong effect. Good product, must have if you’re looking for a laser module.

Fits very snug and secure. Very bright. A common light, so finding holsters that fit with it was easy

Initial Observations: It's about time! I have been waiting for a light to come out for my Glock 26. I am a Law Enforcement Officer and carry a backup G26 in my cargo pocket while on duty. The G26 fits nicely in the pocket with a pocket holster and uses the same magazines as my full size Glock 17. The only problem I have been facing is with my off duty gun. I wanted to carry the G26 off duty and concealed but really enjoy having a light on my off duty gun (identifying the threat is where people run into problems in low light). I also like the idea of being able to carry the G26 with a full size G17 magazine ready to go should the first magazine fail or I need more ammunition. I just thought a light would never be able to be attached on the pistol due to the pistol not having a rail for attachments. Then I was told about this set up, the TLR-6. I have always enjoyed Streamtlight products. I have never had issues with any of their lights. I have Streamlights on my duty pistol and patrol rifle (M4) already. So, I ordered the TLR-6. The light also had the built in laser, which I was not wanting too much, but I found out the laser can be turned off if you want it turned off. The light fit on my pistol perfectly. The pistol and the light look like the pistol came that way. It was also a quick and easy 5 minute install. The light was also very bright for the size of the unit. Reliability: I shot a few hundred rounds through the pistol using the light and have not had any issues. The unit feels very durable and turned on and off when I wanted it too. On/Off Button: I did notice the button on the light sits far enough forward that someone with short fingers may have some trouble reaching it. I am 6'2" and have normal size hands for my height. I did not find any problems reaching it, but my wife did. I enjoy the fact that the light is ambidextrous, since I am left handed. I can turn it on and off with my left index finger. I also liked that the on button could be pressed lightly to activate the light and released to turn the light off or you can press the button firmly to have continuous light. Battery: The battery is easy to access with the light on the gun. For sight in, I used the allen wrench it came with to sight it in with my iron sights. This took five minutes and was very simple. Holster: This was almost a deal breaker for me. Unless you are placing it next to your bed, why would you want a light on a gun without a holster? I needed a holster that I could continue doing pocket carry with and I also needed a holster I could use for concealed carry. I like Kydex the best due to moisture issues I have had when using leather for concealed carry. I chose to go with Gladius Holsters ( [...] ). I was told by another cop that they make great products and can make holsters to fit lights on pistols. I was impressed. Gladius made a pocket holster for duty carry and an appendix carry holster for off duty concealed carry. The holsters are very durable and exceeded my expectations. It is strong stuff. I posted a picture of me carrying appendix carry with this light in a holster. Pros: Bright, easy to use, durable, price, fit to pistol, now have holsters for them, easy to install/sight in Cons: distance from hand to button

So far, this seems to be a decent product. It is a cheaper type of device. it does go good with a Glock 19 pistol. Time will tell if it lasts.

Item arived fast.. easy to install. Good for indoor and outdoor use ..the 100 lumens is plenty. The laser cuts through the bright led light and csn be seen indoors and outdoors at night very well..easy to zero in with just using facory sights.. I zero it at about 15 feet and any closer the laser drops 3 inch or so...so you have to aim low ... any further it take about 25 feet before it starts to rise about an inch above zerod so you would aim high the reason this is is because the laser sits an inch or so below the barrel you will get use to it testing it at different distances and componsating for the drop or rise of the laser but its only like an inch or so rise or drop and it all depends on what distance you zero it at...which is not a big desl it only drops 3 inches if your right up on a target within like 10 feet but honestly dont worry about those little details this is well worth the money and you will get to know the detsils ... its easy... I was suprised by how far the laser will go at night outdoors.. as far as the eye can see really.. the 100 lumens indoors up close quarters is more of a 1-3 foot wide hot spot getting brighter in the center with plenty of spill flood patter wide and bright ..and out doors or distances more than 8 feet is more of a flood pattern but still well worth the money and plenty bright... can switch the batterys out with out removing the light.. its only like 6 bucks for replacement batterys.. unless your out in the woods and need something extremely bright...that goes extreme distsnces... this good to have for like up to 6 acers of land without a lot of trees thats how the light performs.... indoors any size house would work.. if you do buy one u will wonder why u didnt buy one sooner.. this is good for home defence indoors and surrounding the dwelling.. this is a MUST HAVE for home defence.. u wont be disapointed... i was not paid to write this...

I have purchased a couple of these. They fit more Glock models than indicated. I Have installed the TLR69290 on a gen 4 glock 29 and also on a gen 3 model 20. It should fit on any glock with the integral "rail groves". I can not figure out the couple of reviews I have seen here on Amazon indicating that it was hard to put on, did not stay on, or somehow damaged "itself" on installation. This thing can not be much simpler to install and there is no way to put in on incorrectly. I hate to sound harsh, but if you have trouble installing this you might want to ask yourself if you are smart enough to really trust yourself with a firearm in the first place. As to the unit itself.. It would not be a bad thing if the light was a bit brighter. But you can only expect so much out of a reflector that is less the 3/4 of an inch across. It is bright enough to "blind" anyone trying to see past in in a dark environment when it is shown in their eyes. It is bright enough to illuminate any target at any distance (inside or out) that you really need to be engaging with a handgun. It is not meant to be used to light up a village for an A10 strike after all. It also puts out plenty of side scatter to illuminate off center of the beam to as high a degree as you can ask such a small package to achieve. If you are searching a field, use your flashlight, this is for lighting up what your handgun is pointed at and what is in immediate proximity to that possible target. The laser is a pretty standard red laser of this class. As crisp and bight as it is supposed to be. Again, more than strong enough at any reasonable target distance (and beyond) in the low light conditions it is meant for. If you are gonna complain that you can not see the laser in broad daylight, all you will be doing is showing your ignorance. And if you complain that the batteries won't provide more than a couple of hours of run time... Seriously? Buy a flashlight! I do have one slight disappointment. If the activation button was about 1/4 inch further back, maybe just 1/8, it would be much easier to turn the unit on with my trigger finger while drawing the pistol. I do not have the largest hands, but neither are they the smallest. I am comfortable with a double stack 10 mil Glock after all. However I can not consistently turn it on with my trigger finger while still maintaining an ideal grip on the gun as I draw it. I would prefer not to be contemplating shifting my grip in the stressful situation that I will be in if I have to present the weapon quickly in a true self defense encounter in the dark. With an extra second (or less) to burn, this will not be a problem. And the button is easily reachable with my off hand in a proper two handed grip, so this is a very small negative for me. I did have to adjust both of the units I received for proper zero. It took me less than a minute to have them co-witnessed with the iron sights at the distance of my choosing. No complaint there. I prefer the instinctive grip activation of some of the LaserMax offerings or the "grip button" switch of some of the Crimson trace units. But to have a light and laser combo (I consider the light to be the more important of the two) in a package that is no larger than any of the frame conforming lasers on the market it is well worth the time spent getting used to the "manual" switch.
