Kel-Tec CL-43 flashlight

Kel-Tec

COCOA, Flo. --(Ammoland.com)- Kel-Tec CNC, Inc., known for bringing innovative and unique firearms to the market, is pleased to introduce their latest product, the Kel-Tec CL-43 flashlight.

The Kel-Tec CL-43 is an extremely bright flashlight designed to be used in conjunction with a firearm.

The CL-43 is CNC machined from extruded 6061 aluminum. The light operates via a rearward-click button located midpoint of the flashlight with both constant and momentary-on capabilities.

The exterior features our patented nonslip pattern common with our firearms. Surfaces are either hard-coat anodized or Cerakoted.

Five colors are available:

Tactical: Black, OD green and Desert tan.
Safety: Orange and yellow.

Unique features of the CL-43 include:

- Superior ergonomics due to the forward facing push button switch.
- Small size. Can be enclosed by one hand and operated in parallel with a handgun.
- Extreme light power. 420 lumens and an optimum beam angle.

The CL-43 operates on three CR123 Lithium batteries and features Cree XP-G LED.
Its weight with batteries is 107 g (3.8oz), and size is 24x38x102 mm (.94×1.5×4”). (Height x width x length).

The switch is operated like the trigger on a gun, pointing the light as an extension of your arm. Compared to a light mounted to a pistol, the CL-43 has much superior range, and also keeps the ability to hold the light off the line of sight to conceal your position.

The small size of the CL-43 makes it possible to hold and operate parallel with a handgun without impairing a conventional two handed hold. If required, and with some training, the light can be operated one-handed together with the gun.

With the addition of a separate attachment, the CL-43 can also be mounted to a MIL-Spec Picatinny. An integrated belt clip and lanyard ring add to the versatility of the system. With a separate adaptor, standard AA batteries can be utilized, however, at an increase in length of the system.

The powerful CL-420 LED Module is also used in our CL-42 conventional flashlight and the KSG Tactical Shotgun.
