Hilarious. Via Uncle.

Instead of re-engineering their product line or negotiating to license Surefire’s tailcap, PentagonLight chose to quietly shut their entire operation down. This is intriguing, since the judgment had no financial component. Surefire didn’t ask for a dime. They just asked that PentagonLight not be permitted to sell the Surefire tailcap.

Too bad.

For what it’s worth, I think the MOLLE Light is actually the light I use more than any other in terms of minutes turned on. The only problem I’ve had with it is that the compass in the base went bad at some point. It takes AA batteries that are too low for use in other things and gets a lot more use out of them. It’s a low-power light, but plenty good for a lot of general use. (via Uncle)

Crimson Trace MVF-515 with Red Laser

Crimson Trace Modular Vertical Foregrip Now with Green Laser

Crimson Trace announces an addition to the revolutionary modular vertical foregrip, the MVF-515 Green that now utilizes both a green laser and a white light in one unit. Both light sources follow the Crimson Trace mantra of instinctive activation for ease of use. Suggested retail price is $649.00.

Given the popularity and usefulness of green lasers, Crimson Trace has waited until the Crimson Trace engineering team was able to solve the two banes of green laser technology: The first one, heat, which shortens the laser diode life and second, high power draw, rendering green lasers useless in a matter of minutes. The engineers at Crimson Trace have overcome both of these detriments by utilizing the latest technologies into the new MVF-515 Green.

I’ve checked out the MVF-515 with the standard red laser and it’s pretty sharp. Not exactly cheap, but it’s a great unit.
