🛡Best Home Defense or Self Defense Laser Gun Light TLR 2 or TLR 6
If you have a home defense weapon like a pistol or shot gun you soon realize that you are blind in the dark. The best tactical laser light for most gun are made by Streamlight.
They make a variety of gun laser lights like the TLR1, TLR2 HL, TLR4, TRL6, etc. I highly recommend both the Streamlight TLR-6 and the Streamlight TLR-2. I have a TLR 6 mounted to my conceal carry pistol, the Springfield 9mm MOD 2. My Mossberg 930 SPX shotgun has a TLR 2 HL mounted to it.
One major factor that I noticed when using the both of these amazing gun laser lights is that the lumens on the TLR6 is lower than the TLR2 HL. The TLR 6 only has 100 lumens so it still gets the job done but just not as bright as the TLR2 HL’s 630 lumens. The difference in brightness is night and day. The TLR2 also has a strobe light feature. One positive point of the TLR6 mounting laser light is that the battery light lasts about 15min longer than the TLR2 HL.
Once you have a self-defense or home defense weapon paired with a nice laser light, you will never look back. If you practice shooting at the range, one can see that acquiring the target is extremely easy. Both TLR2 and TLR6 have 3 light features: laser only, LED light, and the laser light combo.
Most of these high quality laser lights have universal mounting capabilities. The TLR6 does need to have a specific model to custom fit your weapon of choice. Another great laser light brand that is extremely reliably and has high performance is Surefire series weapon lights. The SureFire X300 delivers a stunning 600 lumens of output.
This beam of light can easily impair an adversary’s vision and to positively identify and accurately engage threats at a significant distance. All of the laser lights mentioned in this blog provide a versatile illumination tool that easily secures to the Picatinny and Universal rails found on most handguns.
