Pressure switch for G&P M3 TacLight?

Hey there,

I found this M3 TacLight on Ehobby and I was wondering where I could find a pressure switch that would work with it for my Glock.

Thanks.

I would not recommend pressure switches at all. They are very prone to failure.

The M3 is designed to be easily toggled on and off via a paddle switch on the back of the unit that does not force you to change your hand position significantly. The paddle switch allows you to do momentary on or constant on.

You definitely do not need the pressure switch.

I have the same unit for sale, but also including a rechargeable battery set AND an extra 3 cell bulb that outputs more light power than the real M3.

Ok, thanks for letting me know. The only reason I was thinking of a pressure switch was because in CQB, its nice to be able to quickly flip on your light on someone, but if they suck anyway I guess I wont need one. I'll probably just go with the light.

Thanks again.

The lights momentary paddle switch is faster, and more reliable than any pressure pad.

+1 to that. I have the G&P M3 and I like the paddle switch a lot better than any pressure switch setup I've tried to far on a pistol.

If you really do insist on one, G&P makes a pressure switch for the M3. It replaces the end cap. You can find it on Redwolf, eHobby etc.
