pistol mounted light/laser combos

Hey guys - I'm getting ready to purchase a tactical light/laser combo for my Glock 19 - problem is I'm having a hard time deciding... wondering if any of you have any experiences with them and which brands you liked/disliked... so far I am leaning towards the Insight M6X... Thanks!

i know it might be considered heresy, from a guy who owns so many Springfield 1911's and XD's - but I definitely prefer the GLOCK lights/lasers. and do get the combo if you can possibly afford it. it makes night shooting nearly mindless.

i have had streamlight and insight, but the glock is a trimmer profile. Their light or laser-and-light combo can be had on eBay at a semi-reasonable price and the only real problem I have encountered is getting a holster for them ... any of them.

I would have ordered Insight for my 19, but it seems longer than the Glock light. Glock's light is bright enough to cause a temporary vision problem for a BG in the dark or low light.

Thanks guys - I have already purchased the M6X and am very pleased. I appreciate the responses though!
