Another great video Lenny! My brother and I were in Nashville in August and we stopped by to have our slides cut. A very nice gentleman gave us a tour of the facilities and we were extremely impressed especially, of your CNC machine shop. We both received our slides in less than 10 days and we both are very happy on how they turned out. You have a great store and a very helpful staff. I’ll be down again because, I have another slide I need cut! 🤣🤣 Thanks again!
Dear Lenny, Hello from Brazil! Thank you very much for your good videos and specifically for the didactic way of saying important things! I'm sure your work helps many people around the world! I'm just another individual who appreciates your teachings. Thank you again!
I put the P I.D. 1000 (no laser) on my Echelon along with the 508T green optic they work great I love it and the P I.D. is a lot cheaper than the Surefire x300 Ultra light. 🙂
@@johntoughlove479 One must always be suspicious of products out of China, but Holosun is a great mix of quality and affordability! CCP = bad, but the folks at Holosun deserve cookies.
@@ANARCHITECT708 I have one of those. It sits in an ammo box doing nothing. The battery is super jank and the brightness does not even come close to my TLR-7.
As usual, you did a excellent job describing a product that you're carrying in your amazing establishment.. I'll need a Holosun light when I purchase the new Glock 17L MOS GEN 5 from The Glock Store in Nashville, from you.
I love Holosun products and own 9 of them. They are amazing and easily rival products double the price but I’ll never run a pistol light that protrudes past the end of my barrel. That’s why I run an Olight Baldr Mini 600 on all of my Glock 19s as the lights sits perfectly parallel with the end of the barrel and fits beautifully in an Orpaz T40 holster.
@@BrockNessMonster1991 Hi Brock. It is primarily just my personal preference regarding form factor and ergonomics when it comes to weight, drawing/holstering and transporting/storing my firearms. I also treat any light on my firearm as a weapon light and not a flashlight. On a pistol most of those large lights are overkill in relation to the effective range of the firearm. There are so many high quality dependable choices for a pistol light in smaller form factors that I see no reason to add unnecessary bulk. If I’m in a fire fight with my Glock 19 and being hindered by the illumination reach of my weapon light then I’m already holding the wrong firearm. I do however run larger weapon lights on my rifles and shotguns. I’m not knocking anyone who wants to run a weapons light that protrudes past the end of the barrel, it’s just not for me.
@@BrockNessMonster1991 I’m hoping Holosun will design a weapon light for the Glock 19 that has the form factor like it is part of the firearm. Something with seamless design like their SCS red dot. They really knocked it out of the park with that thing. Granted I know it isn’t really a cost effective strategy for these manufacturers to make items specific to a single firearm but it sure is nice if you’re the person who owns that specific firearm.
I like it but the holster considerations is what’s going to kill this for a while. I wonder why they couldn’t have used one of the same footprint sizes as like the TLR 7 or something so that it will automatically fit.
That's a lot of lumens. A few years ago I purchased an Olight PL-1 11(600 lumens )for my 19 and recommended a certain IWB kydex holster for it on Amazon. I had to use a Bic lighter to shape it to fit though. It's nice to know that you make a light bearing holster for the Holosun.
Tennicore makes an awesome holster that is designed to work with many different lights on the market for your 19. It's my favorite holster. Don't mind the price. If you choose this holster, you'll never go back to your current favorite.
Dawg you can just buy a streamlight or if you want the best surefire is the best. But streamlight is the next best both have unlimited holster options vs olight where a lot of companies won’t make them cause they are ieds
Great presentation as always Lenny. I only wish you would have demonstrated the spot and flood of the light. My go to light has a tight spot that is aligned with where the bullet goes and a decent flood so I can see my environment in the low ready position. That way I am in no way assaulting anyone by pointing my gun at them. BTW, folks need to know that when using a weapons light.
@@mrroboto1660 The one I am referring to is the Olight PL Turbo. 66,300 candela. Tight spot and excellent flood at the same time. I also have a PL-3R. The spot on it is not quite as focused and about the same flood. It is higher lumens but has less throw and it rechargeable. You can also use a remote switch with the PL-3R. You cannot with the PL Turbo. I like them both. The 3R is on an AR and the PL Turbo is on a handgun. If you wait for a sale you can grab them at really great prices. They also come with a lifetime warranty.
Have an alpha omega kydex holster for my compensated 19 with this light and love it. It's heavy but not too heavy, and is BRIGHT when it's needed. My only complaint with the P.I.D is that there is no strobe function.
Is the candela more on the lower lumen output light? If it’s more candela that is a massive selling point for folks as people are finally understanding how illumination and throw equate to what you can do with a light as opposed to “how bright” a spot on the flood is 5 meters away
The biggest issue is unless it has some outstanding feature that other lights dont have it wont get enough traction for holster makers and stuff to bother adding options to their lineups. Streamlight and Surefire are high quality with great features so they are always an option. On the opposite side of the spectrum olights are cheap so tons of people buy them. Whether thats a good thing or not is debatable. lol
Olight is about the same price as streamlight but reasonable people won’t put money into them cause they are ieds. And yea cool they have 1400lumens but heat up fast as shit and have little to no candela just solid flood. Olight is for fudds and airsofters.
At first I was an olight Valkyrie guy but I don't really like having to charge my light because it always died at the most inconvenient time I have since bought a Streamlight tlr-1 that's the only one I need and not to mention it'll go in pretty much any holster but the one on my are is an olight Odin I like it cuz the battery lasts Hella long
I'm a huge flashlight nerd, for that reason I'm not a fan of streamlight flashlights. I'm a fan of everything holosun makes but I have to admit the Streamlight TLR-7 is probably the best pistol light I have ever seen.
@@tinman4275 I have to agree. I have a tlr 1 hl and overall it’s got good lumens and good candela. I also like how if the lens were to crack or get damaged you could go to optics planet and get another lens and twist the old one off and replace it. If the x300 gets a cracked lens you gotta replace the whole thing.
Hello Lenny, Great video. I have a question ? I have a Glock 20 and the PID Plus, there are two adapter plates supplied numbered 1 and 2, which do you use? The provided instructions aren't very helpful. I think the #1 adapter "pushes ' the laser spot lower. This seems to be good as it appears that using the #2 adapter has the spot higher then it should be on target. I haven't tried it in actual shooting yet just pointing it at a target in the house. Any thought from you or anyone else would be appreciated. Thanks and keep up the great videos.
Proprietary charging port and cable is a colossal fail. Should be USB‐C with a silicone plug like newer flashlights. That means if you forgot your cable tuff luck. I'd hope it would take a replaceable lithium battery like an 18350 or its even more of a liability.
Seems like you hear that some wml with laser don't hold zero very good. It would be nice to see someone like Arron Cowan at Sage Dynamics do a review of this light. For me it's to much extra going on especially when I'm already running a RDS. But the light alone looks like a winner.
10:07 "Of course we're in America here & we love to tighten things down." 😆😅 Guilty. Sometimes I tell myself "Everything doesn't have to be foot pounds. Newton Meters work too."
Not sure if its because its the non laser version but I am not the biggest fan of the buttons. Kinda hard to press and my fingers arent that long. Lots of duty full size/compact handguns have a long trigger guard. I wish they did the TLR1 HL or even TLR7A buttons. Pushing down or forward is easier than in IMO. Great light tho performance wise. Also it works with safariland OWB light holsters.
Lenny's simply The MAN! Wish I had his job! (easy to say on the surface, I'm very much aware he's busted his @ss + continues too & It's certainly not all rainbows) Glad your in TN. I'm in Massachusetts so Tn's at least closer than Cali. Appreciate all you do @Glockstore
On police house search videos I've seen where they clear a room they do that pie slice method and from cover unless the person they are looking for is armed as well and shoots through the wall at their position
I'm going to recommend that you become familiar with your local, state, and federal laws on using a weapon mounted light for identifying a threat. I am very positive that it is illegal to do that in most states in the USA, but probably not everywhere. I'm sure that there are some circumstances that will allow you to use a weapon-mounted light, but you should really be familiar with your local laws because you can very easily break the law if you are not careful.
Walk into a dark hallway during the day and you’ll see why you need a light. Even have someone hold an object in their hand and see if you can identify what it is. Never use a light that charges. One extra thing to not work. Try charging your light in the woods. You can’t
I really like this light! What do you think?
It almost looks like it’s a tlr1 hl footprint. I’d be curious to see if it fits my tlr1 holsters 😂
I do too but I would most likely apply blue loctite to the screw threads.
One of the best
@@gmadgengarageprobably what it is. Private lable Chinese products.
@@mrgamersayshow long have you had it?
For people who are just getting into this…. These tutorials are very helpful

A little big for my taste on my Glock 17 but it's always good to see something new from Holosun.
Going the purchase without the laser. I use their optics. Love the honesty!!!
Thanks Lenny, always appreciate your review's and especially your NEW Store in NASHVILLE!!!👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😉
Love what Holsun is doing. Now, we must waiting for those who manufacture holsters to catch up on the accessories end.

@@memedealer171 to each his own
@@Anonymous__Prime ?
@@memedealer171 was just saying everybody has an opinion…. I think the Holosun pid plus is the best light on the market!
I love the light had it for a wile but finding a holster that is made for it is tough
Sure wish the GlockStore would open a ARStore.
i used 7 inch lag screws from home depot, hamed fisted torque spec, with lock washers, no issues. I just club them over the head with the gun. lol

@@borrago Based on size and shape i dont see how.
Could a laser device be used as a distraction/threat, as in a security situation? Or maybe incapacitating if you poke em in the eyes with it.

Great !! You are the man Lenny! I will check out that new holosun light.
I love mine. I have the pid plus. Can't find a holster that will fit my combo, now it's just my bedside gun.
I'd really like to see your reviews on some olights
Keep an eye out 👀
They fit the tlr1 holsters
I always keep my kitchen and entry lights on at my house.
Id love a smaller model that fit the 19. A model with a tape switch for rifle would be nice too.
I was wondering if you could make your teeth whiter? I dont think theyre extreme enough yet

Just heat up ur old kydex holster with a hair dryer, and you can make this light fit on your old holster made for a different light setup... 😅❤

Anyone find a holster that will work with this and an optic sight on a Springfield Echelon? Seems to be a unicorn.
That thumbnail of lenny is scaring me
I see the prosecutor asking defendant why having laser you decided to shoot at the hearth and not in the leg
I was hoping it was a LEP laser emitting phosphorous.
Why is the Glock 20 gen5 not talked about much? Maybe because of the caliber it's chambered in.
Did anyone notice the different finish on the barrel of this gen 5 G17? Doesn’t look like it is nDLC like the slide. 🧐
Thats why you need a light that strobes
Love glockstore Lenny is the man.
Lenny say it CORRECTLY
THE BEST!
Would recommend this light on a G43x MOS or do think there is a more compact PID for that model ?
How well would this work on a large frame Glock? I am thinking of setting up my Glock 41 with a light and red dot sight.
streamlight has entered the chat
300 ultra for the win it’s lite as hell
Olight makes that as well.
@borrago I've used them for over 6 years and none have "exploded". Used several on a daily basis for weeks, sometimes the entire night.
Lenny you’re a legend!
What about holsters that will accommodate this model?
You sold me!
Great job on the video 👍
Would these lights fit on Glock 43x mos frame ?
Somone should edit this thumbnail this isn’t a horror movie about an angry psychotic serial ELF killer
Streamlight TLR6 is the best 👌
What is the price of the green laser with 900 lumens
Love ❤Holosun.
ACSS is the most superior set up by far…Once you try it you will never go back to the dot or circle-dot.
Already got my holster set for the tlr7a holosun already got my money with the 509 t they will be ok lol
does it fit on a safariland holster
It looks like it would fit in the M3 style light bearing holsters.
Need a light for a G26
Will this fit a glock 48? (Not a mos)
I am Glock store biggest fan.
Stroke warning: lazers and lights will be flashing on your screen 😎
please never point any laser at the camera sensor. you risk breaking the sensor for good! Consider riflections as well.
I’ll stick to my stream light HL
What is the run time on the light per charge?
I've charged it once when I purchased it, and use it pretty regularly and haven't charged it in 6 months.

Won't work on the G26.
Do you have a price Lenny?
To much bulk/weight for me
Lasers are for cats
A gun light could help you identify good guys, but it also could help the bad guy with a gun shoot at you first.

No strobe ? Man i love my crimson tracer green laser light combo this is a cool set up still !
Will this fit the 43x mos????
No, this is for double stack glocks
Love your content, but please lets not say, you need a light for a self defense shooing defense in court.
is it made in USA?
