Decent tactical light for AR15 around $50?

[thesammythecurse]

Does anyone have suggestions for a decent light to throw on an AR15 for home defense around $50 or less? I know I'm not getting the best of the best here, but I'm not running through the woods fighting crime 5 nights a week either. The lighter and brighter would be a plus, but for the price I'm not gonna complain much.

Has anyone had good experiences with something that fits this description?

Add another 50 and buy a streamlight trl1 or trl1s

Old scope ring and a rayovac aa led flashlight from homedepot. 100+ lumens. Well over 1000 rounds and mine still works perfect.

I didn't know you could add 50 to 50 and get less than 50.

It's the reading part of the equation that stumps some people.

No it's the buy something of quality that stumps people. People on here seem to want to cheap out. There are reasons why a quality light costs a little more than a cheap piece of Chinese crap.

Dude asked a question - you could have NOT replied at all and came closer to having something of value to add.

I added plenty of value

You're a legend in your own mind. Op asked for $50...not $100. And odds are stream lights are most probably made in china. All led chips are....

The only value you could have added was giving me the extra $50 to buy the light you're recommending. Lol.

I'm not asking for a quality piece. Something halfway decent. The Chinese don't make such terrible products all the time.

I buy plenty of quality things, but right now I don't see the need to spend $100 on a flashlight that will be used very rarely.
