Ky11e Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 8 hours ago, Milspec said: I’m concerned about the extra weight this light has. The M4 is front heavy already. I know we’re only talking and extra 2-3 oz over a SF M600 but the M4 is hefty. I know the tool steel bezel adds some justifiable oz to it. As the competitors use aluminum. Has anyone noticed the extra weight up front? I also notice the clicky buttons sits back roughly 1/2” or so farther. Any issues with comfort or thumb jam? Can't say I've really noticed the weight but I have the briley carbon fiber magazine tube which probably offset some of that front end weight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milspec Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 These are back on Dvor as of 11:00am EST. Full size or Micro $169.00 plus tax and ship. It makes me want to buy another one and I don’t even need it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milspec Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) Annnd both standard kits are sold out. Wow! Last time they went for 2-3 days if I recall correctly. Complete kits are still available. Sometimes they'll pop back up for sale if someone has it reserved in their cart and doesn't act on it after the 15 min window.

les_garten Posted December 5, 2021 Author Share Posted December 5, 2021 I guess they didn't have as many for sale this time. I was amazed how long it lasted last time as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kahamu Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 +1 for the Rein. I've got a micro on my mk18 and love it. May have to look into replacing my m600df on the m4 with another one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milspec Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) These are back but the days of sub $200.00 are over. Man I should have picked up another one last time. Edited February 4, 2022 by Milspec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait a bit. They are releasing version 2 of these soon. Lighter on the weight, smaller bezel, and better throw/candela. https://www.clouddefensive.com/product/rein-2-0/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milspec Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Son of a B! Every time I buy something the next best thing comes out. It happened with my Elzetta and now the Rein! 70k candela is a big boost. Lumens dropped to 1,100 not that it really matters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kahamu Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Haha I'm in the same boat. I ended up selling both my Reins in preparation for the 2.0s. They did mention an upgrade promo for rein 1s. The video kind of explains the whole candela/lumen reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use them still on occasion to look in a closet or a crevice. I cannot believe how much more light I have gotten used to. They seem like incandescent now! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though for some reason, although probably unnecessary, I'm quite found of the tool steel bezel on the 1.0. My only concern is the shortening of the lugs. The 1.0 tail cap is pretty close to the OEM M4 forearms when using the IWC mount. This might be an issue with 2.0 but we won't know until somebody tries it.

LOL I remember when I thought it was ultra blinding. I picked up an Alpha 1 several months ago and then they came out with the next Gen. I really like Elzetta's build quality. I wish they would make a better mount system or a scout lugged weapon light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kahamu Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 True. I kept my m600df on my m4 for now. I'll have to check the clearance once I'm able to snag a rein 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the Surefire cause it's a good compromise for a shotgun. The Rein will go better on an AR maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
