SureFire’s X400V-A-IRC combines a 150 lumen tactical white light, a 120mW IR light, and a <0.7mW IR laser into a compact package that works equally well mounted to a pistol or a long gun. Constructed of high-strength aerospace aluminum, the X400V's body is hard anodized with a MilSpec finish, and sealed with gasket and O-rings for dust and water resistance.
Users can rotate the bezel to switch between White and IR light. A separate mode selector on the rear allows users to switch between off, laser only, light and laser, primary beam only, and a second off. The IR laser features an amber-colored LED indicator to alert users when it is on. The patented toggle switch allows users either momentary-on or constant-on activation. The X400V is fully compatible with optional DG grip and pressure-activated XT07 switches for additional control without altering the grip.
Powered by two 123A batteries, the X400V is capable of the following 'constant on' runtimes with each individual setting:
White Light - 1.8 hours
IR - 8.0 hours
Laser - 20 hours
Currently available in Black.

The price on this thing is laughable…I can buy a gun for that price….don’t get me wrong I’m a fan of surefire…..but dang!
Well, I’m gonna guess that the “laughable” price you mentioned is due to the extensive RDT&E expended on the part of Surefire to make this at the behest of an organization that had a requirement for it.
Unlike you, who has no requirement for it. Because if you did, you’d be issued it. Troll
Dude it’s a light and a laser for 875 bucks. Seriously? The light itself only lasts two hours! Come on!
T, if you don’t like it, don’t buy one. If you want one for free, well step up and go to the units that issue it.
DSM, of course it’s cheaper considering the government has restrictions on profit margins which is why a SpecterDR costs us $600 and Joe “Mil-Sim T” $2k so they can recoup some of that RDT&E
The price of that RDT&E is probably being passed onto the consumer in the MSRP and how they’re keeping an agency price low. Unless Surefire listed it in the SOW for the development and they’re pocketing it all, but given this seems to be just a collection of parts and pieces already in their production this was a solution looking for a problem. Wouldn’t the IR version offered by TNVC with an IR filter flip cap on the main light perform the same basic function? Still pricey but not $875 pricey.
still don’t get why they don’t put the laser closer to bore.
I’m gonna guess because just like Insight, they based the laser version off an existing design to save $ and shorten the EMD phase
