Hey quick question about edc handheld lights. I can’t decide between the cloud defense mch or the modlite plhv2 handheld for edc. Which one do you recommend? All I’m looking for is an edc light/defensive light but also reliability and durability is the main concern

MCH EDC dual output.

Hand held lights are a whole different/longer subject.  I have a couple Surefire 1000/1200 lumen lights, but I think they are something like 10000 candela.  I've done lots of tests in outdoor setting, away from the city so pretty dark and the throw is quite good for what I think is SD ranges, but for area.  However, the high(er) candela shines when trying to ID if the person has something in their hands, or when there's different backlight conditions. 

I checked out Modlite and Cloud Defensive handhelds.  I think I'll get a MCH soon. 

I have both with the OKW and HC dual output.

Modlite
Pros: Slightly tighter beam pattern. Not by much and not really noticeable, but something different.
Con: Tailcap switch is sensitive and had it switch on when stowed away on gear.

Cloud Defensive MCH
Pro: Dual output option makes it more versatile.
Con: Cant really think of any. Maybe the fact that it takes flat top 18350 batteries, so I have to buy more batteries.

If you don't want to provide links or names how would one know?

How much is a bunch? 10?

CMO got his and he mentioned applying with a group of about 6, so I'm going to assume at least those 6.

Thanks. I also noticed the new thread that was created.

That was a very long winded post for, I'm going to test some optics side-by-side and you decide for yourself. 

For those who didn't get to or want to sit through a 30 min video (I got through parts of each main section), he covers parallax, "red dot test", battery life, shake awake, durability (mostly story telling), and lens caps.  Overall, I like that he did tests side-by-side.  Tough to do for any shooter, but especially for newer shooters trying to decide.  I personally tested EoTech and Aimpoint side-by-side for my first ARs.  Tested others along the way, but mostly focused on EoTech and Aimpoint since.  He had some good points, but some of his tests couldn't tell much.  Also, wasn't really "combat", so title misleading.  Personally, I think most of the "known quality" red dots, be it holographic, prism, etc, would serve me just fine for my intended uses.

I appreciate the TL;DR (or W) breakdown.

Jurassic World and gun social media influencers.

They're fun to shoot and nostalgic. I haven't paid attention to the recent popularity, but I'd like to say the action is pretty simple and can be compared to revolvers(as being said to be reliable guns).

Eye relief is something to consider.

Sorry, I don't have the attention span to watch videos at the moment.

Kind of makes me sick and vomit.
you guys are happy that some man
granted you your natural rights.
 :grrr:

I don't speak for the entire community, but it's small steps. I can understand for those that put all the effort into fighting this.

I’m surprised the first person is not from this forum. Cause I would think most of you peeps here are hardcore on being one of the first to apply. Oh well, as soon as someone post here about theirs, then I know it’s legit. Until  then, I no believe!

Like CMO mentioned above, HPD will mail out the approval letter. That individual probably wont know about it till tomorrow at the earliest.

I read the conversation in the post the other day, but was a little unclear. Do they offer it monthly as well? It mentioned $100/month, but it sounded more like a price breakdown because I would think longer membership would be a discounted price.
