The new Surefire Ultra models have tremendous 500+ lumen output with a beam profile that has a fairly tight hotspot. That hotspot may be tighter than you want for some applications, especially if you are using your light indoors. The new F04-A is a beam diffuser that slips onto the 1.125″ diameter bezels of the Surefire Ultra lights. It uses a high grade optic diffuser lens to spread the beam of your light into a wall of light.
I have been using the Surefire F04 (the original 1″ version) for years. There is some light lost to the diffuser but it is minimal. This would be ideal for a Surefire Scout Ultra or Surefire X300 Ultra that is mounted on a carbine that is used for home defense.
If you want a broader, more diffused beam for your Surefire Ultra, check out the F04-A Beam Diffuser.
The upcoming MDC TAC from Malkoff Devices is a flashlight worth getting excited about. While other lights in the Malkoff Devices MDC line are aimed at EDC/utility crowd, the upcoming MDC TAC is aimed squarely at the military, police, and armed citizen user.
The MDC TAC is made from hard anodized aluminum. It is a compact, single CR123A powered light with a high output setting (250 lumens, 1 hour) and low output setting (15 lumens, 30 hours). In keeping with its intended purpose, the MDC TAC always comes on in high mode. Its electronics are fully potted like all Malkoff lights which is part of what makes them so bomb-proof.
Check out the Malkoff MDC TAC.
Mil-Spec Monkey just dropped some new gear and it is always worth taking a look at what the Monkey unveils.
The MSM Notebook Cover is a minimalist approach to covering and and organizing your 3″ x 5″ notebooks (Rite in the Rain and others). This simple design allows you to keep a couple of pens and pencils handy, along with a few business cards. It just slips on to one of the notebook’s covers and the Hypalon material prevents it from sliding off too easily.
The MSM Stealth Compact Pouch is a compact version of the MSM/Tactical Tailor Stealth Admin Pouch. It features 2 internal pockets with built in organization and, of course, a generous loop field on the front. It is the same height as the original Stealth Admin but it is narrower side-to-side and front-to-back. This narrower design allows it to mount on just 2 columns of PALS which makes it just about ideal for using on the high center of a plate carrier to keep the sides of the plate and shoulder pockets clear for your carbine’s buttstock. It also works well on the side of a pack where there is often only 2 or 3 colums of PALS webbing available.
The excellent Arc’teryx Baller Ass Cap (BAC) (see the JTT review) is available in Wolf Grey exclusively through Tactical Distributors. This hat will sell out quickly.
