The SureFire XC3A weaponlight delivers professional-grade illumination with 550 lumens of white light output, engineered for tactical applications where reliability matters. This compact aluminum-bodied light projects a focused beam reaching 170 meters, providing target identification capabilities in low-light conditions.
What Makes This Different
The XC3A features SureFire's proprietary LED technology paired with a precision reflector system that produces a concentrated beam pattern superior to standard weapon-mounted lights. The aluminum construction provides durability while maintaining a lightweight profile that won't shift zero or interfere with weapon handling. The 550-lumen output significantly outperforms entry-level tactical lights that typically produce 200-300 lumens.
Key Features
- 550 lumens maximum output with 170-meter beam distance
- Black anodized aluminum body construction for corrosion resistance
- Ambidextrous switching for left and right-handed operation
- Compatible with standard Picatinny and Weaver rail systems
- Shock-resistant LED technology rated for firearm recoil
- Weather-sealed construction for all-environment use
- Low-profile design minimizes snag points and holster interference
Field performance demonstrates consistent activation under stress conditions, with the switching mechanism engineered to function reliably with gloved hands. The light maintains zero retention on semi-automatic pistols and rifles through extended firing sessions. The focused beam pattern provides sufficient spill light for peripheral awareness while concentrating the hotspot for target identification at extended ranges.
