People always think they will grab a bunch of things when something happens. Reality is that if it's not on the gun itself, you won't have it when you need it. That's why having a light and some extra ammo right on the gun is a very good idea

I scored a Streamlight TL Racker on Black Friday (2022) for the paltry sum of $99. Great video, wished I had your suppressor tool or the one you featured on Amazon when I installed my TL Racker in my Shockwave. 👍🏻
Great price and thanks for the feedback.

Good video, the streamlight racker is a great choice for a weapon light, very impressed with mine . One other con , it needs a kill switch, so theres no chance of activating the light when slung or in a carry case or scabbard.
You make a good point about a primary off/on switch. It would also be bad if you accidentally hit the pad when you were attempting stealth. Thanks for watching and thanks for the positive comments.

At 4:25, the item in the top right of the screenshot is the one everyone is saying they needed and it's referred to as "extra long" for the shockwave. How do you know the one you highlighted in the screenshot is the correct one if you didn't use it? And it's no longer $6, it's $16.

I like the surefire myself. A shotgun is a short range weapon so 200/600 lumens does the job well. It has an on off power button so you can put it in "off" mode and it greatly saves battery wear. There isn't a strap on the surefire but its got a bigger fore-end and its a rubberized grip so your hands don't slip. The extra bulk up front actually helps with recoil. I personally like the surefire better but you really can't go wrong with either on its a matter of preference and budget. You really gave a nice review of the streamlight!

Iv been using the gg&g mount on my shockwave it works well for me. But after the mount and a decent light you’re close to the price of this item which has the benefit of not having anything sticking out the side but for me it works.
Indeed, GG&G provides a great selection of good options. The CDM mount I used actually was excellent, but the Modkin quick mount just didn't work. Of course, the slim design of the Streamlight, as you point out, wins overall. Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment. Don't forget to like, share and subscribe.

Awesome video. Which tacstar sidesaddle would you recommend for the shockwave? I am a lefty and need something high enough to not interfere with the trigger guard entry. Thanks
Thanks for the feedback. Always appreciated. If you have the Mossberg Shockwave 12 gauge I believe you have two choices when it come to Tacstar --- the 4 Shell Carrier or the 6 shell Sidesaddle model. The 4 Shell Carrier, from what I can see, looks like it might be less intrusive so might work better for you as a lefty. I have the 4 Shell Carrier on mine and it seems OK when I hold the gun in my left hand. No problems. Thanks for watching. Don't forget to like, share and subscribe.

You bring up a good discussion point. As an example, the fore-guard on the short Ruger PC Charger 9 is a little over 1.25 inches and the cut-in space on the Steamlight Tracker is about 1 inch, but also provides a larger surface area. Both would seem to provide a good blocking in their designs, keeping the hand from accidentally moving forward. The Ruger doesn't seem to need a safety strap. But obviously since you're racking the fore-end forward on the Streamlight, the risk is increased so a strap has been added. Personally, I'll keep the strap.

If you haven't already, I hope you'll check out my other "Mick Mac" Tabletop Review videos on RUclips.
Due to the attachment at the end of the action arms, some rotation on the loading tube can be expected. On mine it's about 1/2 inch when fully extended forward. If it seems like it want's to pull down and away or slide off forward or back or rotates more than about 1/2 on the tube, something's wrong. I assume you have the 12 gauge Shockwave. The Streamlight TL Racker won't work on the 20 gauge without some modification. It will be too loose unless you add a correcting tube (see my suggested fix for 20 gauge installation at ruclips.net/video/Jp0GNiKNKMA/видео.html).

Thanks for the video! I watched it a few times before I bought the forend. I just installed mine but I have an issue with the forend nut not screwing all the way down. It is stopped by one of the plastic pieces on the racker. I couldn't tell if you were able to screw it on all the way. Have you had any issues after firing the firearm?
You may notice that my Shockwave in this review is the 20 gauge version so my problem was different from what you describe. However, I did a follow-up video on how to modify the Streamlight to fit the 20 gauge properly. (See ruclips.net/video/kuJxrFVG5ao/видео.html) As of today, that fix has worked perfectly without any problems. As for the forend nut not screwing down in your situation, it would seem that the attachment should be firm on the forend itself, but I don't think over-tightening would be a good idea. Of course the forend unit's attachment via its rails allows for quite a bit of play around the shell tube which would be normal. Hope this helps.

Walked in a local pawn shop a few weeks ago, and they had 3 of these on the shelf... I bit at 120 out the door. Got it home, and tinkered with it. Got it in, was actually kind of impressed with it. Its bright, it feels good in the hand, and its not as heavy as the old Surefire I ran a few years ago. Then I discovered the biggest flaw... I lost my sling attachment point. Well, i guess technically i can still use it, but the sling will completely block the light anytime its hamging beneath the gun. Thats a bummer. Honestly, the sling means more to me than the light... Wish they had thrown the light off to one side or the other.

It drives me nuts they don't make the TL-racker with strap for the Remington 870. When I fire with this forend the shotgun tends to jump so it would be nice to have a strap. I'm trying to figure out a way to make my own strap on it without puncturing any important internals for the lighting. As for now, when I fire it I wrap the sling around my hand so it doesn't bounce upwards when fired.

@@mickmacstabletopreviews8466 I actually sent Remington a message inquiring the reasoning or if one was in the works for release they sent me back and I quote 'We don't make that.'
Do you know the length of your racker forend ? I just bought one, for my 14 inch Mossberg shockwave, and it doesn't seem to fit. I don't have that tool to install, so I took it apart and tried. Seems to be to long, but it said it was for the 590 shockwave in the description. Has the strap.
Yep, it's 8 inches overall. It replaces the original fore end. It should fit just fine on the magazine tube under the 14 inch barrel on your 12 gauge 590 Shockwave. Thanks for the question thanks for watching. If you haven't already, I hope you'll check out my other "Mick Mac" Tabletop Review videos on RUclips and Rumble.

Sure. No problem. Their ad suggest the Streamlight TL Racker is "Compatible with Mossberg 500®/590®, 590® Shockwave, and Remington® Model 870™". You should know that we're talking about the 12 Gauge.

Just bought the 870 version for my tac-14, no strap unfortunately. I don't really like the magpul forend that comes on it. $274 Canadian shipped, lil more expensive here. Thanks for the review, I think I made a good choice.
The original Mossberg forend strap is fasten with four short screws that are tapped into the plastic under body. If that's the same for the magpul, you might consider moving it from the magpul forend to the Streamlight. Just a thought. Thanks for watching and thanks for the positive commenst.

Mine just came in for my Shockwave. I agree that the strap is much too long, probably by at least an inch to inch and a half. May get brave and try taking it to a place that does clothing alterations to see if they can stich it up a bit shorter with one of their industrial strength sewing machines.

Thumbs up. Very detailed explanation of items. I have the 590 Shockwave 20 gauge. Is that the 20 gauge you have ? If so, What was the item # to the Crimson Laser please? Thank you
Mine is indeed the 20 gauge Shockwave. The Crimson Trace "Lasersaddle" model is the LS-250. It comes in red laser for about $160 or green laser for about $210. I went for the green laser. Good price.

There is no model number for the Streamlight TL Racker. Streamlight just list this product as "Works with Mossberg 500®/590®, 590 Shockwave and Remington 870™".

I installed the tl racker and it seems too rotate side to side wonder if you had this problem seems like the action arms are moving but also seems like the racker isn’t a tight fit any advice ?
Due to the attachment at the end of the action arms, some rotation can be expected. If it rotates more than about a 1/4 inch, something's wrong. I assume you have the 12 gauge Shockwave. The Streamlight TL Racker won't work on the 20 gauge without some modification.

I've found I've learned to keep my fingers down away from the activation area on the Racker so that I don't have the light going on when I don't want it. As for the light beam moving around when I do have it on and I'm racking, the light beam is so dispersed and so bright, I'm not at all distracted.

If you go to the Mossberg website and search for "parts and accessories" for the Shockwave you'll find the NC Star Tactical Shotgun Scabbard @ $22 and you'll also find the Shockwave/Cruiser Case @ $25. I have the "scabbard", which with the Streamlight and the shell side-saddle is a tight fit. The "case" looks like it might be a better fit overall. For only $25 I might get one. However, the scabbard I received from Mossberg is well made and for $22, I thought it was a great buy. If you don't have the shell side-saddle on yours, the scabbard should be fine.

BTW, I've heard that the long silver nut removal tool featured in the upper right of the Amazon ad (4:28) of my review is actually the better tool for installation.

Good video, the streamlight racker is a great choice for a weapon light, very impressed with mine .
One other con , it needs a kill switch, so theres no chance of activating the light when slung or in a carry case or scabbard.
You make a good point about a primary off/on switch. It would also be bad if you accidentally hit the pad when you were attempting stealth. Thanks for watching and thanks for the positive comments.

Something like a tail cap , with a click switch, that could be retro fitted to existing lights .
Just a thought.
Could you just loosen the battery compartment cap?
@@k_sey.9370 yes , that does work , but , its in a tight spot and can't be done quickly, then there's the possibility of the cap coming off and getting lost .
Great Review, Can you share what Scabber you used in the Video as I am looking for one just like it

At 4:25, the item in the top right of the screenshot is the one everyone is saying they needed and it's referred to as "extra long" for the shockwave. How do you know the one you highlighted in the screenshot is the correct one if you didn't use it? And it's no longer $6, it's $16.
You make a good point and in fact the one I eventually purchased was indeed the $15.95 unit shown on the upper right.

@@mickmacstabletopreviews8466 You're welcome, friend. Keep safe, now.
I like the surefire myself. A shotgun is a short range weapon so 200/600 lumens does the job well. It has an on off power button so you can put it in "off" mode and it greatly saves battery wear. There isn't a strap on the surefire but its got a bigger fore-end and its a rubberized grip so your hands don't slip. The extra bulk up front actually helps with recoil. I personally like the surefire better but you really can't go wrong with either on its a matter of preference and budget.
You really gave a nice review of the streamlight!

Iv been using the gg&g mount on my shockwave it works well for me. But after the mount and a decent light you’re close to the price of this item which has the benefit of not having anything sticking out the side but for me it works.
Indeed, GG&G provides a great selection of good options. The CDM mount I used actually was excellent, but the Modkin quick mount just didn't work. Of course, the slim design of the Streamlight, as you point out, wins overall. Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment. Don't forget to like, share and subscribe.

Awesome video. Which tacstar sidesaddle would you recommend for the shockwave? I am a lefty and need something high enough to not interfere with the trigger guard entry. Thanks
Thanks for the feedback. Always appreciated. If you have the Mossberg Shockwave 12 gauge I believe you have two choices when it come to Tacstar --- the 4 Shell Carrier or the 6 shell Sidesaddle model. The 4 Shell Carrier, from what I can see, looks like it might be less intrusive so might work better for you as a lefty. I have the 4 Shell Carrier on mine and it seems OK when I hold the gun in my left hand. No problems. Thanks for watching. Don't forget to like, share and subscribe.

Given how deep that finger choil is molded into the grip, I think the strap is superfluous.
You bring up a good discussion point. As an example, the fore-guard on the short Ruger PC Charger 9 is a little over 1.25 inches and the cut-in space on the Steamlight Tracker is about 1 inch, but also provides a larger surface area. Both would seem to provide a good blocking in their designs, keeping the hand from accidentally moving forward. The Ruger doesn't seem to need a safety strap. But obviously since you're racking the fore-end forward on the Streamlight, the risk is increased so a strap has been added. Personally, I'll keep the strap.

My stream light handguard seems to be pretty loose and shakey after installed, i did not have to take 590 apart.
Due to the attachment at the end of the action arms, some rotation on the loading tube can be expected. On mine it's about 1/2 inch when fully extended forward. If it seems like it want's to pull down and away or slide off forward or back or rotates more than about 1/2 on the tube, something's wrong. I assume you have the 12 gauge Shockwave. The Streamlight TL Racker won't work on the 20 gauge without some modification. It will be too loose unless you add a correcting tube (see my suggested fix for 20 gauge installation at ruclips.net/video/Jp0GNiKNKMA/видео.html).

@@mickmacstabletopreviews8466 appreciate that
Thanks for the video! I watched it a few times before I bought the forend. I just installed mine but I have an issue with the forend nut not screwing all the way down. It is stopped by one of the plastic pieces on the racker. I couldn't tell if you were able to screw it on all the way. Have you had any issues after firing the firearm?
You may notice that my Shockwave in this review is the 20 gauge version so my problem was different from what you describe. However, I did a follow-up video on how to modify the Streamlight to fit the 20 gauge properly. (See ruclips.net/video/kuJxrFVG5ao/видео.html) As of today, that fix has worked perfectly without any problems.
As for the forend nut not screwing down in your situation, it would seem that the attachment should be firm on the forend itself, but I don't think over-tightening would be a good idea. Of course the forend unit's attachment via its rails allows for quite a bit of play around the shell tube which would be normal. Hope this helps.

Walked in a local pawn shop a few weeks ago, and they had 3 of these on the shelf... I bit at 120 out the door.
Got it home, and tinkered with it. Got it in, was actually kind of impressed with it. Its bright, it feels good in the hand, and its not as heavy as the old Surefire I ran a few years ago.
Then I discovered the biggest flaw... I lost my sling attachment point. Well, i guess technically i can still use it, but the sling will completely block the light anytime its hamging beneath the gun.
Thats a bummer. Honestly, the sling means more to me than the light... Wish they had thrown the light off to one side or the other.

It drives me nuts they don't make the TL-racker with strap for the Remington 870. When I fire with this forend the shotgun tends to jump so it would be nice to have a strap. I'm trying to figure out a way to make my own strap on it without puncturing any important internals for the lighting. As for now, when I fire it I wrap the sling around my hand so it doesn't bounce upwards when fired.

@@mickmacstabletopreviews8466 I actually sent Remington a message inquiring the reasoning or if one was in the works for release they sent me back and I quote 'We don't make that.'
Just installed mine. The rear top of the Racker is too high and rubs on the barrel. Streamlight is sending me a new one to see if it fits better.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing. Glad to hear Streamlight was responsive to your issue.
Do you know the length of your racker forend ? I just bought one, for my 14 inch Mossberg shockwave, and it doesn't seem to fit. I don't have that tool to install, so I took it apart and tried. Seems to be to long, but it said it was for the 590 shockwave in the description. Has the strap.
Yep, it's 8 inches overall. It replaces the original fore end. It should fit just fine on the magazine tube under the 14 inch barrel on your 12 gauge 590 Shockwave. Thanks for the question thanks for watching. If you haven't already, I hope you'll check out my other "Mick Mac" Tabletop Review videos on RUclips and Rumble. By the way, if your Shockwave 590 is the 20 gauge model, you'll need to make modifications to fit. See ruclips.net/video/kuJxrFVG5ao/видео.html
Will this work for the 590s with the 14inch barrel?
Sure. No problem. Their ad suggest the Streamlight TL Racker is "Compatible with Mossberg 500®/590®, 590® Shockwave, and Remington® Model 870™". You should know that we're talking about the 12 Gauge.

Just bought the 870 version for my tac-14, no strap unfortunately. I don't really like the magpul forend that comes on it. $274 Canadian shipped, lil more expensive here. Thanks for the review, I think I made a good choice.
The original Mossberg forend strap is fasten with four short screws that are tapped into the plastic under body. If that's the same for the magpul, you might consider moving it from the magpul forend to the Streamlight. Just a thought. Thanks for watching and thanks for the positive commenst.

Mine just came in for my Shockwave. I agree that the strap is much too long, probably by at least an inch to inch and a half. May get brave and try taking it to a place that does clothing alterations to see if they can stich it up a bit shorter with one of their industrial strength sewing machines.

Mine is indeed the 20 gauge Shockwave. The Crimson Trace "Lasersaddle" model is the LS-250. It comes in red laser for about $160 or green laser for about $210. I went for the green laser. Good price.

Wht model number (serial) for this?
There is no model number for the Streamlight TL Racker. Streamlight just list this product as "Works with Mossberg 500®/590®, 590 Shockwave and Remington 870™". However, note that the TL Racker will only fit 12 GA applications. I suggest a simple modification needed to fit a 20 GA 590 Shockwave at ruclips.net/video/kuJxrFVG5ao/видео.html

The strap you see on the Streamlight Racker in this video is the one that came with it. This strap was too long for my comfort, so I cut a bit off and had it sown by a canvas shop.

I'm not sure. But that would make sense since the 590M is designed around the Mossberg 590, which is where the 590 Shockwave came from as well.

How's it feel with the light flashing around every time you rack it? Is it bothersome at all or not at all?
I've found I've learned to keep my fingers down away from the activation area on the Racker so that I don't have the light going on when I don't want it. As for the light beam moving around when I do have it on and I'm racking, the light beam is so dispersed and so bright, I'm not at all distracted.

Nice video 👍🏻
What scabbard do you use for your shockwave and how do you like it?
If you go to the Mossberg website and search for "parts and accessories" for the Shockwave you'll find the NC Star Tactical Shotgun Scabbard @ $22 and you'll also find the Shockwave/Cruiser Case @ $25. I have the "scabbard", which with the Streamlight and the shell side-saddle is a tight fit. The "case" looks like it might be a better fit overall. For only $25 I might get one. However, the scabbard I received from Mossberg is well made and for $22, I thought it was a great buy. If you don't have the shell side-saddle on yours, the scabbard should be fine.

You don’t buy this just to replace your forend, you buy it to add a weapon mounted light. When you compare to other options to add a capable/reliable light to your weapon it’s relatively cheap.

Terrible
Sorry to disappoint.
NO source for the tool in your video? NO link or brand for the tool you suggest? FAIL
Note at about 4:28 I did show what was available from Amazon (source) and the brand and link for the tool of your choice is implied. There's been some controversy over which tool is best and I chose not to go into that during this review which just focused on the Streamlight Racker itself. Sorry if that was insufficient but thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
