Nightstick TCM-10

The TCM-10 by Nightstick is a Picatinny rail-mounted compact weapon light that is compatible with countless pistol models thanks to a set of five included modular rail inserts.

Producing a beam of up to 650 lumens and 4,612 candelas, with a two-hour runtime on high from one CR123 battery, the TCM-10’s total internal reflection lens creates a bright central spot for rapid threat identification while also allowing for enhanced situational awareness thanks to a broad outer halo of light.

Made from durable, hard-anodized 6061-T6 aluminum with a polymer rear housing, activation of the waterproof unit is via bilateral toggle switches, and the light features both constant-on and momentary-on modes, as well as battery-saving and strobe settings.

MSRP is $210. For more information, visit nightstick.com.
