MGB,
I don't know what to think. I agree it's wierd. The Tac M3, Tac III, Tac 3, or whatever it is called was supposed to be very similar to the Sure-Fire's. There used to be complaints about the cap/switch., that the company has tried to address.
For a less tactical light, may I recommend Pelican flashlights. The 2 AA "MityLite Magnum" is my current favorite, although the Versabrite with the head strap is the great worklight. I get mine at

HotRod9mm,
Thanks, I had kinda forgot about them. I'll check them out.
