The Streamlight TLR-6 delivers 100 lumens of white LED illumination in a compact package specifically engineered for the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield. This tactical light mounts directly to the trigger guard without requiring a rail system, maintaining the pistol's slim profile while adding essential low-light capability.
What Makes This Different
Unlike universal weapon lights that add bulk, the TLR-6 uses a custom-molded housing that contours perfectly to the M&P Shield's frame. The ambidextrous switching provides instant activation from either side, while the integrated design eliminates the need for additional rail attachments. At just 1.27 ounces, it adds minimal weight while delivering focused illumination out to 89 meters.
Key Features
- 100-lumen white LED with 1-hour runtime on lithium batteries
- Custom-fit design for Smith & Wesson M&P Shield models
- Ambidextrous paddle switches for left or right-hand operation
- Tool-free battery replacement with two CR-1/3N lithium cells
- Serialized for identification and fits most M&P Shield holsters
- Impact-resistant polymer construction with anodized aluminum bezel
- IPX4 water-resistant rating for all-weather reliability
The concentrated beam pattern illuminates targets effectively in close to medium-range scenarios typical of concealed carry applications. Law enforcement officers appreciate the positive tactile feedback of the paddle switches during high-stress situations, while the streamlined profile maintains weapon retention in duty holsters. The light cycles through momentary and constant-on modes with simple finger pressure.
