I've got a major hard on for a Surefire integrated fore end for my Remmy 1100. About $420 out the door (and to mine). As I've griped about in the past the 1100 is hard to find tactical stuff for. 870s? No prob, and the lights are cheaper to boot.
I'm torn between the $420 Surefire (a 200 lumens sun-tan machine, by the way) and simply bolting up a length of Magpul MOE rail and clipping a $200 tlr2s to it (combo laser/lit). My concern is the clamp on... I've been thru about 3 lights. The shotty is really hard on lights.
Oh, another thought? My LEO pal points out that a gun mounted light is a TARGET. I hadn't thought of that. A LEO can light up a bad guy and pull the trigger. Something you'd best be willing to do if you light up a target...and it's a different ball game when your a home owner.
All that said... I want the Surefire. :-). Though the stream light is a cool second thought
