Thanks in advance,

I'm pretty sure it not rare.
There was a thread around here somewhere with the same question.
I have a few of them and I believe they are pretty common.
Maybe other member can check thiers and confirm they have the same "old crosshairs logo"

I dont know, I used to like knives with blade shapes like that, then I got a spyderco paramilitary with a full flat grind. now I have a hard time even considering a knife without a FFG blade. Dont get me wrong that thing is bad a$$ I'm sure its built strong as an ox.

My SC2 has the crosshair logo

M@elstrom · #**574** 10-30-2009, 01:39 AM

Ah... finally I have secured an A2 of my very own (thanks to curtispdx), I must say with the Lumens Factory HO-A2 it's quite the performer though I only dare to feed it primary Lithiums... so here's a few shots of the newest member to my "Surefire family"

And of course the mandatory "family group shot"

Nice little collection!

All of my SC1/2/3's have the crosshairs logo. In another thread someone brought up the cost of SF making new molds to incorporate the new logo. It makes sense to me... I just wish they still used that logo on their lights.

That's exactly what I was thinking - it would have been trivial to reprogram the light body CNC's for the new logo, but injection molding tooling is expensive and SF would have only changed that if they had really wanted too.

Those SC's look pretty cool this way though, sort of new-retro.

I think it would be awesome if SF brought back the old 'crosshairs' logo to make xxth anniversary flashlights, for a single year of production.

Thanks for the info folks,
K

I'm sorry you can't share my enthusiasm regarding my latest acquisition

I reckon you are being sensitive, M@elstrom! From little things, big things grow....
What's in that middle torch?

Looks like a first gen L1? Might have a colored led or white. Has the four flats and cool optic, a very good looking light. Nice find.

I'm not being sensitive, just applying some "reactionary" sarcasm

And yes that middle torch is a Gen 2 L1 (note the lighly scalloped bezel)

The Magnumtlight is at the back, the engraving is just too faint.

Nice effect Tempest. What's the 4th one back? It looks a bit shorter.

that would be nice. but the next best thing is to collect lights that have the cross hairs. Other than the nitrolon lights. Like my first gen C2.

Jethro · #**584** 11-03-2009, 11:49 AM

Collection?? Ok, this is it...

Hey, take it easy on me!! I just started!

gswitter · #**585** 11-03-2009, 02:32 PM

Good start!

aioria · #**586** 11-04-2009, 01:27 AM

gswitter · #**587** 11-04-2009, 07:10 AM

Just Lego'd, or modded?

Edit: Of course it's modded. An unmodded KL4 won't screw on to an unmodded L1 body.

aioria · #**588** 11-06-2009, 04:37 AM

Yes, Of course it's modded

The fourth one just happened to have a smooth bezel on it at the time

Congrats on a terrific buy!!

Lumilo · #**594** 11-15-2009, 09:27 AM

Here is my little collection so far.

Launch Mini · #**595** 11-18-2009, 01:55 PM

I don't see many T1A's around the collections.
Is this because of their price point??
I only have one SF at the moment (E1B), but do like the Titan.
I know there are other options out there, but I still like it.

Price is a major factor. Secondary is the quality of beam. Some people are dissatisfied with the tint.

However you can shop around and get a Titan for a decent price. Lapolicegear had a deal, but it is over now. For like $169.99

I got mine at Cabela's in the Bargain Cave on clearance. I like it for the low 3 digit S/N.

ugrey · #**597** 11-19-2009, 01:13 AM

Mikellen, That is a real start! If that is just the start, I want to see the middle and the end!

WoodMotorsports · #**600** 11-19-2009, 08:59 PM

I may as well make my first post here, as these are what brought me to the forum. My meager collection so far:

Forgot the one mounted to the AR, so here is another shot:

I would love to have one of those display cases like the fellow above me. I can't even find any of the little stands like the dealers have.
