Okay, but would you rather have a nice big hefty mag light, or a tiny little light weight Surefire with a strike bezel with which to fight?

That's an easy answer.
Would you rather CCW a .500 S&W that will blow the head off your assailant or CCW a tiny little XD/M&P/Glock.45ACP to fight?
Carrying a hefty Maglite around is obviously cumbersome and not user friendly. Hitting someone in the face with the weight your fist is damaging enough. The Surefire with a strike bezel would be similar to being hit with brass knuckles. On top of that, my strikes will be much, much quicker with the Surefire. Using a big hefty Mag light would provide 3 day's notice when and where it's coming from.
Care to guess how much extra in fees it is to be over weight with luggage these days? Or are you just going to carry it on your person and hope that the lady next to you is going to ask if that's a flashlight in your pocket?
