<snip> When you said $4,000, did you mean to leave off a zero?! That's just Surefire making something just because they can. I'm sure a few people at Surefire laugh at any sucker who buys that.
You can proclaim "build quality" only up to a certain price. At some point you have to question how efficient a company is at making something. At $4,000, that thing had better come with a diamond worth $3,600 or something like that. Otherwise, I don't respect Surefire's ability to design and build within a budget.
Nope, no extra zeros. Four freakin' grand for a flashlight. If you look real hard, you can find one for around
$3,300.00. Surefire used to be my favorite flashlight company. Great customer service, quality product. Then they engaged in an aggressive campaign to weed out any dealer that sold their product below MSRP and fell hugely behind in keeping up with LED technology. I reluctantly began looking elsewhere and found manufacturers like Fenix and Four7s which gave me the product I was looking for at a reasonable price. I suppose Surefire is doing ok with its military contracts. Maybe they will someday refocus on the civilian market.
