    There doesn't seem to be a lot of info on this out in the wild yet. I'm guessing it will be making a bigger debut at Shot Show. The fact sheet was released on 12/14/2017 and the data sheet is copyrighted 2018. There doesn't seem to be an MSRP floating around yet. Even a search for the UPC comes up empty. (I haven't watched the video yet so I don't know if it's mentioned in there.) But this may convince me to upgrade my TLR-1 (non-HL).

    Includes multiple adapters for many firearms
    MSRP = $215ish

    What else do you want to know?

    Obviously I’ll will have to pick one of these up ASAP once they are available. Then the fun begins making custom blocking for Holsters until my CNC Cut mold guy has some TLR-7 options available.

    Sounds like a perfect excuse to by all the latest and greatest. You might have to teach me how to make them so I can give my wife that excuse lol.

    Thanks again for making my friend the 1911 holster, he called me and said he loves it. Fast and perfect as usual.

    No prob. Glad I could help.

    I mentioned that new TLR-7 to the wife earlier, and she was quick to remind me of how much I’ve spent on materials/tooling/upgraded molds, $$$$ and we are only 19 days into the new year, lol.

    By the way, I forgot to show you...these new molds are already making some killer Holsters. Made this set today...a “His & Hers” G43 set up.

    Thanks for the definitive answer instead of a guess-ish.

    Dodd Sports has the street price between the TLR-1 and the TLR-1 HL.

    $215ish... $215... Same ish.


    CR123 is a deal breaker for me. I've phased out every light I have that requires them.

    The only other way you're gonna get enough capacity is with 18650's, and those don't work too well for pistol lights.

    Yup. All my hand helds and rifle lights are 18650. For now I'm stuck with CR123s for our pistols. Waiting for price to come down on the XC1 or something else similar to hit the market. Not worried too much about capacity as long as it is bright enough.

    What handheld lights are you using?

    I carry a Nitecore P12 with a 18650 in it, though I keep backup CR123s as well as it will take them too.

    I carry a streamlight HLX and a protac 2LX at work with 18650s. I keep a charger on the nightstand and one in my unit with spare batteries.
