French Army TL122D Anglehead Flashlight

French Army Anglehead

The TL122D is a right-angle flashlight issued by the French Army, built on the classic anglehead pattern where the lens sits at a 90-degree turn from the body. That bend lets you clip the light to your gear or stand it on a surface and keep both hands free, while the beam points where you need it. It is the field light soldiers reached for in the foxhole, under the hood, and reading a map after dark.

Features

• Right-Angle Head — The lens sits at 90 degrees to the body, so you can clip it on and aim the beam ahead while keeping your hands on the job.
• OD Green Housing — The olive drab (OD) plastic body is the low-visibility green used across military field gear.
• Ribbed Polymer Body — The fluted body gives a positive grip in gloves or wet hands and shrugs off knocks.
• Interchangeable Color Filters — Red, blue, and clear lens discs drop in to change the beam; red protects night vision and cuts the glare that gives away your position.
• Metal Belt Clip — A sprung steel clip on the side hooks the light onto a belt, pocket, or webbing.
• Side Slide Switch — A protected toggle on the body runs the light, with a momentary push button for quick signaling.
• Screw-Off Tail Cap — The base unscrews over a rubber O-ring seal to load batteries, with a brass spring contact inside.
• TL122D Markings — The body carries the molded TL122D designation, the pattern designation for this light.
