Streamlight 69439 TLR-8 Sub 500 Lumens Green Laser Tactical Light, 141m Beam, Fits Springfield Hellcat Handgun

The Streamlight TLR-8 Sub is a compact tactical light with integrated green laser designed for subcompact and slim handguns like the Springfield Hellcat. This rail-mounted combo unit packs 500 lumens of white LED output plus a green laser aiming tool into a footprint small enough for everyday carry and defensive use. At just 2.77 ounces, it won't noticeably bulk up your pistol, yet delivers serious capability when you need it.

What sets the TLR-8 Sub apart is the flexibility to match your shooting style. The interchangeable rear paddle switches let you configure the unit for your dominant hand or preferred activation method—a genuine advantage whether you're a competition shooter, a defensive-focused carrier, or someone who simply wants options. The green laser runs for 60 hours on a single CR123A battery (included), while the light itself delivers 1.5 hours of runtime at full brightness. A safe-off bezel feature keeps the unit quiet in your bag or holster, and the user-enabled strobe function gives you another tactical option when you need it.

Built from anodized machined aluminum, the TLR-8 Sub is tough enough for regular use and rated IPX4 for water resistance. The rail grip clamp attaches and detaches securely without requiring you to flag the muzzle. Beyond the Hellcat, this light works across a wide range of subcompact rails—including Glock 43X and 48 platforms, SIG P365 variants, Smith & Wesson M&P subcompacts, and others. If you're running a slim or subcompact defensive pistol, this is a serious upgrade.
