I have it mounted on a pistol that I keep on a nightstand. I don't need 100 yards of light for that. I just need to illuminate from the bed to the door and this does a fine job without ruining my night vision entirely. My bedroom is about 18x30 and the beam is wide enough to illuminate it from end to end. Low output is adequate, even with my old eyes. High output is uncomfortable in an unlit room.
There are better options for use on a rifle. For close range and pistol use, it's great.
Pros:
- Seems as well built as my 20 year old Z2
- Fits the Masterfire holster
Cons:
- price
- Have to remove the light to change batteries
Best Used for:
- EDC & Home defense
- Finding lost change in the sofa
Would recommend: Yes

Surefire does it again! I was impressed with the price for this high quality light. You can't beat A Surefire. It was very easy to install and I was able to put it on my Banshee in seconds after taking it out of the box. Not as bright as the X300 but enough light out to blind someone if you ever need to.
Would recommend: Yes

Great for room clearing works amazing inside building small parking area… amazing light spectrum very refreshing color makes everything very visible clear crisp however limit yourself to short range pistol after year of duty use I swapped for use more home defense range training when I don’t need to see.
Pistol strobe mode works amazing clubs only right but inside a area you know when blinding someone else buys you moments you need works perfectly very debilitating produces enough light behind for Positive ID
Pros:
- Quality
- self defense
- Durabilaty
Best Used for:
- Self defense
- Home defense
Would recommend: Yes

installation was very easy on my XD-9, the build quality is very sturdy, but, because of the toughness, it's heavy. The weight, though, is NOT a bad thing for me which is why I didn't give it 4 stars. It helps with the recoil and follow up shots. Very bright at 1000 lumens and the strobe is good.
Pros:
- build quality, installation, brightness
Would recommend: Yes

Awesome light! super bright and sturdy I have it mounted on a magpul Remington 870 and it withstands all 12 gauge loads from 3 1/2 magnums to 2 3/4 without even budging! Definitely surpassed the surefire x300 in my book in looks , handling, and mounting sturdiness.
Pros:
- bright
- Sturdy
- look & feel
- Ease Of Use
Cons:
- Not much holster options if mounted on pistol
Best Used for:
- Home Defense
- Tactical use
Would recommend: Yes

Excellent weapon light, high quality as always from Surefire. I love the fact you can toggle between high and low output, and that you can toggle the strobe to off. I’m a big fan of the max vision beam. Combined with the masterfire holster, this is a perfect combo.
Would recommend: Yes

I'm using this on my 300blk suppressed SHE. It is one of the best rifle lights for it's size and weight. The brightness is massive. Tight hotspot, tons of spill. I feel it's too big for most pistols. unless you actively have the MasterCam? Holster from surefire I wouldn't go bigger than the x300.
Pros:
- bright, easy controls, great for rifles,
Best Used for:
- Rifles, police, home defense,
Would recommend: Yes
