500 lumens wow!
Looks good. Man 500 lumens may be too much i think. I don't know. Wonder if the X400-IR is civilian legal.
Definitely making a stop there. I already want to purchase the new X300 @ 500 lumens
wow...they went all out huh? x300 ultra is just rediculous
I was really hoping to see a compact x300 or something similar. Wonder what the msrp is on all those new items.
Man and I thought the jump in lumen rating for the X300 last year was wild...
Waiting on the price of the 500 lumen X300... :D
The X300 Ultra might be just the ticket for my DDM4V5LW. I love the positioning and functionality of running an X300 at the 12-o'clock position in front of the front sight, but having a bit more light on a carbine would be useful outdoors.
I'm wondering if the X300 Ultra's beam is tight enough for long range use like the Scout lights. Also didn't Surefire have the 1 cell X300 last year at SHOT 2011? Whatever happened to that?
I have a Surefire with a drop-in 460 lumen LED bulb. It is ridiculously bright. Obviously the drop-in LED is more splash of light than a good Surefire focused and balanced beam but seriously it is a lot of light and you will lose your 'night vision' if you turn it on even briefly (think car headlight).
All that said - I would be willing to give a Surefire 500 lumen a shot.
Surprised there isn't more chatter on the cans.
The octagonal can I assumed was .22 but then in the video they appear to have it mounted on a 5.56 AR? Goes by kind of quick and I didn't pause it.
Also glad to see the compact .308 can getting some official attention from SF.
I think those lights seem to be getting larger and larger, I would be interested in more streamlined around the rails and smaller. Isn't the best place for light above or below the barrel on a weapon? Focus on getting the light as close to the hand guard as possible.
I've carried the LX2 light for a while, which is 200/15 lumens. It's similar in size to the Executive series, though it's just a hair thicker. That light with 500 lumens will be great.
What I'd really like to see is their IR weapon lights get a 50% increase or more.
Sweet, 500 lumens is a lot, especially for indoors. Outdoors/carstops good to go.
The X300 Ultra needed to be made and I will order one immediately.
The regular X300 is not enough light for outside rural situations with a 14.5" or longer gun.
I always thought an "Irish" version of the m900 VFG weapon light would do well in the marketplace.
The monster can looks a little cheesey.
Cheers
The M500 and M900 just won't ****ing die from their product line.
I saw the can with the spikes/teeth and laughed. I don't know...just seems like one of the top-ten features added by manufacturers that cater to the Zombie-Apoc crowed.
I had a breacher muzzle-device on an 870 Police of mine a few years ago until I found that the spikes didn't do much accept destroy nylon gear and cases.
I know that muzzle strikes are a tool taught by some, and if you have a can they are less effective (same force over larger, blunter, area) so I dunno if the can spikes are an attempt to address that or what. Since it's Surefire, and not Eotech with their blatant zombie reticule, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.
I couldn't watch the video, because of work, but if the new X300 will fit in my KAC light mount, I'll be ordering two of them immediately.
I wonder what it's lowest and highest adjustments are. And measurement specs.
What x300 KAC light mount?
Ha! I guess I could see that strike bezel on the suppressor if you are forced to thump a dude and plow through him. I'm not sure how much more effective this would be than with a normal can, but I do know either way that I will not need that feature.
Like Rob, I guess I'm more understanding since it's Surefire rather than Spikes, for example.
All those spikes do on the can is tear up gun cases, vehicles, clothes, and get snagged.
Yeah. G series, or the Scout.
IMHO, on a super lightweight gun a E series light, on a Gear Sector offset mount is super bitchin'. I've entertained the thought of doing an ultra light build.
What are the specs on the Fury? Lumens, size, etc.
Also, is the new X300 small enough for pistols?
