Dec 18, 2024 · The TLR-7A has more "flood" and doesn't have the focused hot spot (candela) to punch through a hallway as well as the HL-X does. Imagine if this hallway was a little bit longer, or if there was a medium height barrier in the middle …

Feb 14, 2025 · I was wondering if it's worth it to upgrade to the new glock gtl II or stick with the streamlight tlr-7a? I really like the sleek look of the glock gtl and being a glock fanboy (proud of it), i would like to run all glock parts. but i have also heard some bad reviews on the new glock gtl II so i'm kinda torn on deciding if it's worth it.

Oct 9, 2019 · I'm running an X300 Surefire and a TLR-1 HL, but want a smaller light for AIWB. Was hoping to have something available to buy on Black Friday, but that looks like a pipe dream. Posted: 11/11/2019 9:34:15 AM EST

Nov 25, 2020 · I like the Tlr-7a, I find the compact size to be a good balance. I have a Tlr-1 on a Glock 34 size gun and it's ok. It seems a bit bulky and the controls stick out to far for me. The output of the Tlr-7a is 500 lumens as aposed to the 300 of the Tlr-1. I have OWB concealed carry holster for all three plus Safariland 6360 holsters as well.

Sep 26, 2024 · I’m disappointed that the TLR-7X didn’t get a similar output upgrade (compared to the TLR-7A), but its likely because it would kill sales on the TLR-7 HL-X. The holster compatibility issues created by streamlight changing light sizes is super annoying.

Feb 12, 2024 · Whichever way you go, the TLR-7A is a great little light and much preferable to a TLR-1 for EDC. Big fan of the 1 but more in a nightstand pistol as opposed to packing it daily. Great looking set ups for you and the Mrs and yes to red dots as well if …

Jun 23, 2021 · I am considering a Gen 4 Glock 30 and would like to use my existing Streamlight TLR-7A. I have tried to research, but cannot find any specific reference to the 7A fitting a G30 (the Streamlight site contains a vague "most models" comment). It is a pretty tight fit on my G19, so I am not sure if it will fit on the wider G30 slide.

Nov 18, 2022 · The old 300 lumen TLR-1 throws a tighter beam out farther than the 500 lumen TLR-7, but has less flood. The TLR-7 has good flood and is pretty nice for searching a house or close things outside, but falls on it's face past about 25 yards.

Dec 20, 2019 · I need some help from the team. I've got a TLR-7 mounted to a M&P9c and cannot keep the thing mounted to the pistol past about 3 shots. Here's what I've tried so far: 1. Swapped out the key to the recommended key for the M&P9c. Even with the wrong key, it shouldn't be having this issue. 2.
