Description
ACM M3 LED Torch
The ACM M3 LED Torch is a weapon light modelled on the M3 pattern of tactical lights, a compact design long associated with rail-mounted pistol and rifle lights. As the name says, it uses an LED, and ACM’s version offers the classic look at an affordable price.
A weapon light earns its keep in night games and at indoor sites, where it helps you find your way, check corners and identify targets before you shoot. Even in daytime games at CQB venues, a light makes a real difference in dark rooms and corridors. The same torch is also listed in tan; check the product images for the colour of this version.
Using a weapon light
Use short bursts of light rather than leaving the torch on. A quick flash shows you a room or corridor without giving away your position for long, and switching off again helps your eyes adjust.
Be considerate with bright lights at close range: avoid shining a torch into other players’ eyes for longer than you need, and follow your site’s rules on lights.
Mounting
Check the product images for the mount and switch layout. Fit the torch where you can reach the switch easily without changing your grip, whether that is on a pistol’s accessory rail or a side rail on a rifle handguard, and make sure it is tight before every game.
