The SureFire XC3-B builds on their proven XC3 platform with a dramatic increase in performance, delivering nearly double the lumens and candela of the original XC3. Engineered for compact handguns, it combines intense performance with SureFire’s renowned duty-grade durability in a streamlined form factor well-suited for everyday carry and defensive use. It securely fits most railed, compact handgun models and fits in a wide variety of holsters already on the market The XC3-B includes an SFRCR123 rechargeable lithium-ion battery that powers its LED to produce 1,000 lumens of intense white light and 13,000 candela, or you can swap in a 123A lithium battery to deliver 550 lumens, 7,200 candela, and longer runtime. Whichever power source you choose, our precision-engineered parabolic reflector projects an intense beam with a focused hot spot for positive target identification to 228 meters while also providing an optimized corona of diffused light for situational awareness in the nearfield. Intuitive, ambidextrous switching provides both momentary-on and constant-on activation options. Surefire machined the XC3-B’s robust, compact body from lightweight, strong aerospace aluminum, then MilSpec hard-anodized and sealed it to repel the elements. The result is an innovative, compact weaponlight that is rugged enough for everyday carry without weighing down your handgun.
