It's nice living where the groceries walk around
What does that mean?
The deer, he's speaking of the deer meat
I have a TL -Racker and love it. Why only black or that red/orange. Would love a FLAT DARK EARTH.
OD green would be bad ass
I’ve watched a couple of your videos and I really like the way that you present information and review products. This racker light review sold it for me, congrats on another new subscriber!
I appreciate that!
Have a 590 A1 probably will get one. It's simple, a great price much more so than the surefire for end light. It's sleep easy there you go
Its onsale now, would be nice to have it on FDE
Great review. I hope you do more weapon lights in the future.
Thanks. Anything in particular you'd like to see?
I Will Getting This For
My Shockwave SBS...
GREAT VIDEO...
I had to get the 500/590 version to fit right on my new 590S shockwave.
Duh
Demonstrating the mounted light indoors (home defense) would have been nice and most appropriate.
I agree...and I almost did. However, I am unsure if I want to show the inside of my house at this time. I think you will understand.
Its 1000 lumens, if you have white walls, you along with whomever you're pointing it at, are now blind.
@@VKPlaysthat’s so false lmao
@@militant_homesteader Try it at 1 AM and let me know how fucking well you can see.
@@VKPlays I have.
1 inch foam furniture pad on the front side behind the bulb prevents bruised knuckles.
Thanks for the tip!
Plenty of light for a shotgun
Hi, I have a 590A1 class III, can I use this one? Cuz I like the straps.
The problem with rechargeable batteries is that they could fail without warning, with the regular ones you can see them getting dimmer. That's why you don't see rechargeable batteries in military and tactical LEM applications.
Good point, thanks for the thoughts.
rechargeable batteries are used plenty of times for certain things such as radios in military applications, as for weapon accessories for military, regular batteries work just fine since it's easier to just carry extra batteries then to find a way to recharge them during an exercise. weaponlights are also rarely used for military purposes.
As for LE you just don't see rechargeable that often because it hasn't become mainstream yet basically most of the super reputable weapon accessories market don't have a model that uses rechargeable batteries, because here once again it's simpler to switch batteries then to wait for an accessory to recharge. Though I suspect with time LE will move to rechargeable accessories.
Military however likely will adopt a hybrid approach of swappable rechargeable batteries and disposable batteries, as rechargeable batteries simplifies logistics to a degree and can allow a unit to operate in the field for a bit longer without resupply given they have a method of recharging their batteries, Albeit the limiting factor will still be food and water reserves.
the hard truth is both rechargeable and disposable batteries can go out at unexpected times, and oftentimes at inconvenient times so the real answer is to frequently check and change out batteries with usage.
@Durablesilver the only pain one ive seen recently with a common practice of rechargeable batteries is olight with their pistol lights. But that's not exactly the same i suppose
Lol, 100% BS garbage post by someone whos never served a single day. Rechargeables are used in almost every single mil radio out there, they ain't using disposables. Particularly manpacks.
@@rfcdgaf lmao, in a training environment yes rechargeables are used, and the disposables saved for the clu, but in actual patrol in theater disposables were nice if they were around, as you could bury them once they were dead and drop weight instead of carrying them back like you would have to with the rechargeables. but it depends on if you had extra disposables or not. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess you were a P.O.G or a Fobbit at least
Cute deer shot.
What an awesome video good job man
Great review, nice channel you have going, keep it up!
Thanks a ton!
Great info, thanks for sharing
Glad it was helpful!
I grip my guns firmly . Seems like one would inadvertently activate the light easily while shooting
willthis fit a 590 18.5 barrel
Very good informative video! I'm not able to find the TL Racker (with strap) for the Mossberg 500 with 7 3/4-inch action. Any suggestions?
Still deciding if i should get the TL Racker or the Surefire DSF forend light for my 590a1
I considered the DSF but the RL-Racker seems to have a much more streamlined design and price difference is significant.
The Surefire is only 350 lumens, compared to 1000 for the streamlight, for what it's worth. Also twice the price.
With activation running the length of the forend, do you find yourself activating the light every time you cycle a round, even when you didn't want or need light?
If you have really large hands or long fingers, you might. But the part that your hand touches the most is rather bulbous and most of your hand's grip is there and not on the pressure pad.
Great informative video sir! I purchased one and it is a great piece of kit!
Glad it was helpful!
Sure wish they would have done a strobe feature, love it overall but thats a deal breaker for me
Why the exposed wires on the inside of the slide, going to be a future problem? 🦌🦌🤛👍🙏😎🦅🇺🇸
It says it fits maverick 88 but need the action slide from mosberg ? What part is it . Really want this on that shotgun
I'd reach out to Mossberg for that part number.
If you find out or anyone else drop it in comments
Promag used to make one : PM194
Brownells is OOS for the Mossberg action tubes but the P/Ns to look for are
Brownells 631000023
MFR #11603BL
I want to know if this fits a barrel with a heatsheild
Yes it will. I have a heat shield on my mossberg and a TL racker.
@@bonjovi2757 thank you for your response. Good to know
Will it work for Churchill Akkar 612 shotgun???
How's the traction on the grip? Seems slippery
Will the shockwave version with the strap fit a 500?
Yes.
Mine wont shut off for some reason now after less than a year. Is that a low battery indicator?
Have you tried different batteries?
You needed to show the light inside of a house. Is it to bright?
Anyone know if this will fit on a Mossberg 590M?
The only issue I have with it, is that it wabbles a lot.
Pretty much every forend will
Not 100% sold on the strap, even for Shockwave use
good vid
Which shotgun suitable for TL-Tracker?
If I remember correctly your run of the mill Mossberg/Remington models 500-870 etc
I heard of some guys that shined those lights on deer at night. I think they all got arrested.
Does this fit onto a 14 inch 590a1 class iii ?
I see the exposed wires on the inside. Are you certain that this is waterproof (like you are able to submerge it) or just water-resistant (like only splash proof on the outside)?
According to the specs, it is IPX7 rated, protection against immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes.
Looks like you are almost forced to turn the light on though.
Do you mean that it looked like I had difficulty pressing the pad to power the light?
From what I understand, strobe is really a gimmick and not very useful irl. 🤷
That's what they say but it's very discombobulating and confusing. A solid white light makes an easier target. Strobes can also be used to signal. I think both have their applications so I prefer lights with both options.
How come expensive price can't touch,have a cheaper one?
Seriously? I think I spent under 100. I wouldn't go cheaper.
10:20 he inadvertently demonstrates the main flaw of this device lol he literally pauses and says "to turn the light on" lol
What flaw?
Problem with lights is it lets the enemy know exactly where you are!
So are you saying that other lights don't do that? 😅 incredible
@@180filoSX Scotty don't know about tunnel creatures once exploring tunnel's
You need to move... Eek😮
1000 lumens will likely be far too bright for indoor use, especially with white walls, such as in a home defense situation.
Miniusb to charge shit in 2024 should be capital punishment ffs
What?
@@handheldlightreviews MINIUSB TO CHARGE SHIT IN 2024 SHOULD BE CAPITAL PUNISHMENT FFS
@@rfcdgafRepeating the same nonsense in CAPS doesn't change it from being nonsense. Can you try again using proper grammar (and without the abbreviations) so we can understand what you are trying to say?
Seriously the 123 short batteries suck because they dont last and are spendy, I charge to much so slow your ego down dip stick, Ive tried using the 123s for years and they suck worse by the year I use chargeable batteries for lights and carry several in my pocket i not just one.. Surefire SF 18650 or something like it.
Dip stick? Slow my ego down? Huh?
Must be a democrat, can’t explain his position and needs to insult.
I use 123s in a Surefire and they last for months.
Womp womp
This product is great for people with small hands __ it is a small grip for small hands.....ugghh
Boohoo
