Defender Lives Up to its Name
My wife was recently pursued by a stalker. We noticed him slowly at first, but when I awoke at about 2:30 a.m. and found him looking through a window at us sleeping, we knew it was serious. I did not have my pistol handy, but I did have my SureFire E2D Executive® Defender®. I fired it into his face from about 10 feet away as I was struggling out of bed. He jumped like I had hit him with a bat. I will never forget the look of pain and surprise on his face. He ran so fast that by the time I made it to the door he was out of our yard and gone.

The next time we saw him he had followed us 20 miles from our house to downtown Indianapolis. After we parked and were walking to dinner I saw him trying to follow us in his car. Luckily, he got stuck in the downtown traffic. I ran into the street as I pulled the E2D from its Velcro pouch and put the beam on his face. Same look! He about jumped through the roof. As I kept it on him and he tried to shield his eyes I wrote his plate number on my hand. After I was done I used my SureFire to light my hand so he could see what I had done. At that point he blasted out of the turn lane he was in, almost hitting me, and sideswiping another car.

I gave his plate number to a friend who is a prosecutor, but before they found him he was picked up for stalking another woman. In his trunk was a "Rape/Murder kit” of duct tape, a shovel, and other items the police said were for his women.

I am an engineer and use my SureFire everyday, but on those occasions it really saved the day and my wife. It is impossible for some one who has not actually seen or used a SureFire flashlight to believe what they can do!
