The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - Are integrated forend lights worth the expense?

Alright, I think my last post was too general, so I"ll try to be more specific.

I plan on getting a Rem870 in the near future to serve primarily as a HD weapon.
I'm wondering if I should spring for a forend with an integrated light (surefire, EOtech), or just attach a light to either a railed forend or directly to the barrel/tube.

The integrated forends seem cool, but I've never actually used one, and I'm curious about whether they're enough better to warrant the extra $300 or so.
