Both are rail mounted, one is green and one red. I like the green much better as it has a brighter beam and is much more visible in bright sunlight than the red is. Bought them out of curiousity.

The next type I plan of purchasing will be for the HD pistol, and I am leaning toward the Streamlight TLR2S. It is spendy, at around $240 but does have the strobe function, which seems pretty neat. One thing to consider though is I would bet the strobe function is a battery eater.

More about the TLR2S:

Just my 2 cents.
