The SureFire XC1-C Ultra Compact pistol light delivers 300 lumens of white LED output in a package specifically engineered for subcompact and compact handguns. This weapon light maintains the legendary SureFire reliability while addressing the mounting challenges posed by shorter-barreled firearms.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard pistol lights that overwhelm compact frames, the XC1-C measures just 2.4 inches in length and weighs only 1.6 ounces. The ultra-low profile design extends minimal distance beyond the muzzle of subcompact pistols, preserving holster compatibility while providing serious illumination capability. SureFire's proprietary LED technology produces a clean, white beam with sufficient spill for peripheral awareness.
Key Features

Field performance centers on providing adequate illumination for close-quarters scenarios without compromising weapon handling. The beam pattern balances center intensity with enough spill for target identification at typical defensive distances. Law enforcement officers appreciate the minimal snag profile for duty carry, while concealed carry practitioners value the maintained holster options. The switching system allows for both momentary activation during threat assessment and constant-on operation when positive target identification is required.
