20090122527 | RAIL MOUNTED MULTI-FUNCTION FLASHLIGHT - A flashlight having an outer housing that includes both an integrated means for interfacing the flashlight with a firearm and a surface thereon that serves as a handgrip for assisting a user in holding the firearm itself. In this manner, the flashlight can be slidably received onto a rail interface adjacent a firearm barrel. The flashlight is multi-functioned in that it includes at least a white light flashlight and an infrared illuminator. Additionally, the flashlight includes a plurality of batteries arranged in two functional banks and contained in a battery compartment within the housing such that they are positioned transversely relative to the longitudinal axis of the flashlight causing them to be transverse to the longitudinal axis of the firearm as well in order to preserve the batteries in operational condition. | 05-14-2009 |
20090190339 | MULTI-FUNCTION FLASHLIGHT - A multi-function flashlight device is provided in either an all white light emitting diode (LED) or a colored LED version that allows versatile functionality. The flashlight is fashioned to have an outer housing that includes both an integrated means for interfacing the flashlight with a firearm and a surface thereon that serves as a handgrip. The outer housing of the flashlight is configured to be engaged by a clamping assembly that facilitates integration of the flashlight with standard firearm accessory rail assemblies. The flashlight head includes a high-output white LED positioned centrally within an optical element such as a reflector. Should the flashlight be a colored light, four other positions are provided around the periphery of the lens that contain colored LEDs. The flashlight provides the user the ability to selectively and individually control the mode of operation for all of the LEDs contained therein. | 07-30-2009 |
