X400TM Weapon Light & Laser Combo Takes SureFire Back to its Roots

Surefire X400 on a Sig 1911

Fountain Valley, CA — SureFire, LLC, manufacturer of high-end illumination tools and tactical products, has announced the release of its long-awaited X400 WeaponLight. The X400 is a rugged LED WeaponLight with a powerful, fully integrated red laser sight. This is the first new laser product in more than 10 years from the company that manufactured the first fully integrated small-arms aiming laser thirty years ago.

The versatile beam and highly visible laser of the X400make it an excellent choice for both close- and longer-range applications. Its solid-state LED, which has no filament to burn out or break from the effects of recoil, generates 170 lumens of blinding light and continues producing tactical-level light (enough to overwhelm the night-adapted vision of an aggressor) for 2.4 hours on a set of batteries. The X400’s Total Internal Reflection (TIR) lens gathers virtually all of the LED’s light and forms a tightly focused beam that reaches far into the darkness but has enough surround beam to accommodate a user’s peripheral vision.

At 635 nanometers, the X400’s laser sight is one of the most powerful available to the public. Its shorter wavelengths make it nearly twice as bright as the nearest competitor’s laser sight, which means it’s more visible to the human eye and easier to track at longer distances. The X400’s laser sighting adjustment uses Nylok^® screws, which won’t “back out” or loosen from the effects of recoil, so it rarely needs to be re-zeroed—even after extended use.

Ambidextrous switching makes it easy to operate X400 with either hand, andoptional remote switching for many weapons offers precise control without altering your grip on the weapon. The X400 slides onto most handguns with Universal Standard accessory rails and fits many handguns without rails via a SureFire rail adapter. It can also be mounted on long guns sporting a Mil-Spec Picatinny rail.

A tough, hard-anodized aerospace-grade aluminum body protects the X400’s electronics and a tempered window offer more of the same for its TIR lens and LED. O-ring seals and gaskets keep out dust, dirt, propellant residue, and moisture. MSRP is $460. For more information call 800-828-8809 or visit www.surefire.com.
