TLR-3 on P01

[modelbuilder56]

I can't get any of keys to fit the rail on my P01, will this light fit on the P01?

 thanks

 It should. You can also sand the key to fit the rail. Make sure that the key is oriented right. Mine was tight, but I was able to get it in. My light came with 3 or 4 keys. A glock, picatinny and a s&w I think,maybe one more,not sure. Bottom of the key is marked. Hope this helps.

Don't know what key I used, but the TLR3 fits my P01 (urban gray) fine.

Took it off (hate doing that).  The adaptor plate has only one marking on it.  Looks like a "C" inside a circle.  You can see from the picture the tab that fits into the slot in the pistol's rail is sticking out in front of the clamp.  Took the clamping mechanism apart. 

If the tab is to the rear:  remove the screw, pull the right side clamping piece off the light, lift the adaptor plate out and turn it so the tab is to the front, line up the hole in the plate and the left side of the clamp, then put the right side of the clamp on the light, then insert the screw and screw it in far enough to hold the right side plate on.  Then put it on the rail and finish clamping it down.

Oh, make sure the pistol is unloaded before you start mounting the light to the rail.

Good luck.

I don't have a TLR-3 but a TLR-1 and use the 1913 key.

My Glock key (tab) was loose so I sanded the Beretta key tab down a little bit and got it to work so thanks all. Now I can't wait to get my Trijicon's from Cajun gun works on Monday.

I just put mine on and tightened down. No key needed.

Urban Gray and TLR looks awesome IMO.  It?s a standard 1913 rail, should have no problems

Could be alright.  A 9MM really doesn't kick that much, to make the light slide on the rail.  Just keep an eye on it.  When I had my TLR1 on my M&P FS (.357 SIG) it would occasionally destroy a battery.  Light would fail to come on, pull the batteries out and one of the two would rattle where parts came loose inside.  Damaged 3 batteries before I finally realized it was the recoil and took that light off that pistol.
