How cool is that? Before it was known as SureFire, there was Laser Devices. Love that on/off switch.
Gratuitously borrowed from NOLATAC Firearms Training who says this beauty was recently used by a customer at the range.

TacHacker – SureFire DG Switch Hack by Kitbadger

SureFire – 2211 Polymer Wristlight
Wednesday, November 9th, 2016Fountain Valley, CA — SureFire LLC, manufacturer of the world’s finest—and most innovative—illumination tools and tactical products, is now shipping the new 2211® Polymer wristlight. The rechargeable SureFire 2211® WristLight is a lightweight, cutting-edge tool that provides hands-free illumination for a broad range of lowlight scenarios. The 2211® is a phenomenal alternative to a headlamp or handheld, and can be used for walking your dog, EDC, and even in conjunction with a firearm.
When strapped to your support-side wrist, the 2211 naturally aligns with a handgun when the weapon is held with a standard two-handed grip, projecting plenty of light for threat identification at close to medium ranges. The WristLight utilizes our MaxVision Beam™ which creates a seamless wall of white light at three output levels: 300, 60, and 15 lumens. The first two output levels provide a tactical advantage by overwhelming an aggressor’s dark-adapted vision. The lowest output level is perfect for tasks that don’t require so much light, such as loading gear. The output series is programmable to go from high to low or from low to high.

SureFire Shipping New 1000 Lumen Maximus Headlamp
Friday, November 4th, 2016
Fountain Valley, CA —SureFire LLC, manufacturer of the world’s finest—and most innovative—illumination tools and tactical products, is now shipping the newly updated HS3 Maximus™ headlamp. The SureFire Maximus™ rechargeable variable-output LED headlamp delivers an amazing 1,000 lumens of light—enough to illuminate your entire campsite. If that’s too much light, you can dial it down to 1 lumen—or any level in-between—for closer work, preserving your dark-adapted vision, or extending the runtime. A large knurled dial permits output control with one hand—even if it’s gloved or numbed by cold. One hand can also aim the light right where you want it since the light assembly rotates up and down 90 degrees.

TangoDown – Light Portal Front Sight
Tuesday, October 18th, 2016
The new Light Portal Front Sight (FFA-02) from TangoDown is pretty awesome. It’s a combination weapon light mount and front sight; all in one compact package. The FFA-02 was developed to give shooters the ability to place a weapon light on the 12:00 rail without obstructing the front sight. I’ve done this in the past using a SureFire X300 on a rifle which incorporates an FSP, but I haven’t tried it with an XC-1, yet. Now, I’ll have to give it a shot.
This weapon light mount accommodates the SureFire XC-1 Pistol Light, creating a lightweight option if you’re looking to reduce the weight on your carbine. Maintaining a hand forward shooting position makes activating the XC-1 weapon light easy and quick. For use with low-profile gas block barrels only. Does not work with standard barrel-mounted M16/M4 fixed front sights.
Additional Info:
-Limited Availability
-Type III hard coat matte black anodized finish
-Adjustable front sight post
-Quick installation on any MIL-STD 1913 rail
-OA Height: 2″ Width: 2″ Weight: 1.5 oz
-Made in USA
-MSRP: $95.00
