I would recommend one of the Element clone surefire scout lights. They can be found at most HK retailers. There is no reason you need more than 200 lumens for CQB. My scout light is super bright at close range and effective out to 100 yards easily.

Sorry, usually stuff from HK shops doesn't show up very well on google. Here is a link to one at wgc, but you can get them at all sorts of places like pxairsoft, shootercbgear, ehobby, rsov and pretty much every other HK shop. www.wgcshop.com/wgc2008/main/product_detail1.php?search_From=searchItem&item=ELE-EX072BK&search=special&rs=element&catid=&cat=The real light that it is cloned after is the surefire m600c scout light. The only issue with these is that the pressure switches have a tendency to go bad it happened to mine and now I just use the clicky tail cap. I would recommend getting one of the new models that uses the real surefire compatible plugs for pressure switches. Notice how the one in this pic from px airsoft has a different style plug at the back? That's the kind you want. They also just came out with a variety of different switches for the scout lights at px airsoft and a bunch of the other HK shops if you ever want a different type of switch, or if one goes bad.

I use the ultrafire C8 light and I have to say, it's great. All the functions work fine and the battery life can be amazing if you get the right stuff. I've got a set of two lipo rechargeable batteries I use with it so I'm hoping I'll be good for life. I've only had to charge my batteries once now and I use it at Phoenix and ATS night games. It has an aluminium body that I don't beleive will be easy to break. I've had it for over a year now and I've never had any problems. I don't have the pressure switch yet but it's supposed to arrive in my mailbox tomorrow. If you just need a hand-held torch that will be bright, live long, and feel good for a low price tag, I recommend it. On some levels, it can compare to a real surefire. (Not every level)

I agree with ctres, that is a great flashlight for the money. Plus you get a realism point for having a flashlight made after RS ones, unlike the cheaper ones like UTG or store bought crap.

I have found this flashlight very helpful for multiple scenarios, and have even managed to mount it on my gun. Alright, this guy is clearly a troll. Can we just get rid of him before he necros more posts posting pointless trash?

No, but we can give him a warning. I'm in the market for a cool flashlight, around 250-350 lumens. To stun people in cqb. Looking for pressure switch compatibility and really want strobe feature. YOLOSWAGSHOOTER, you have since edited your response, but Myers did us all a favor by capturing it. It was totally unhelpful, in that the neither light in that photo is weapon-mountable, works with a pressure switch, or strobes. It also violated one of our forum rules, for which you get an official warning: 7 - Please do not post on "dead" threads unless you have something genuinely new, constructive, and useful to add. This applies to any threads that have been left dormant for two weeks or longer. Exceptions include Commerce threads that have not been declared as inactive, Retailer Reviews threads, and Buyer/Seller Ratings threads. Let me also make it clear that this is a forum for mature airsoft players. 13 makes you younger than the vast majority of the posters here. It makes you younger than my daughter. If you want to post here, you're going to have to act older than 13, or else you're going to alienate the entire community. If this was a physical gathering and not a forum, it would be a bunch of folks ranging from teenagers to people in their sixties gathered around a big table in a bar somewhere, shooting the shit. In that sort of setting, you can't act the way you act in a middle school hallway. And with that, we lock the thread.
