SureFire used SHOT Show 2026 to unveil three new products spanning handgun illumination, long-gun lighting, and suppressor technology. The announcements include the XC3 Sub handgun weapon light, the M640T Turbo Scout Light Pro, and the SOCOM6-MINI4 suppressor, each designed to address specific operational needs while maintaining SureFire’s focus on durability and professional-grade performance.

The XC3 Sub expands SureFire’s XC-series to micro-compact and subcompact pistols, delivering full-power illumination in a reduced footprint suitable for concealed carry. When powered by SureFire’s rechargeable SFRCR123 battery, the XC3 Sub produces 1,000 lumens and 13,000 candela, offering positive target identification at distances up to 228 meters.
For users who prefer primary cells, the light can also run on a single CR123A, producing 550 lumens with extended runtime. The XC3 Sub features ambidextrous toggle controls, a Type III hard-anodized aluminum body, and is designed to balance output with carry-friendly dimensions.

SureFire also introduced the M640T Turbo Scout Light Pro, a rifle-mounted weapon light designed to prioritize distance and target discrimination. Producing 700 lumens paired with a focused 70,000 candela beam, the M640T Turbo is optimized for long-range identification rather than wide flood illumination. SureFire lists an effective beam distance of approximately 529 meters.
Built in response to end-user feedback, the M640T Turbo uses SureFire’s Scout Light Pro mounting system, allowing flexible positioning on modern carbines while maintaining a slimmer profile than dual-fuel models. The design is intended for professional and defensive users who prioritize throw and clarity at distance.

Rounding out the announcements is the SOCOM6-MINI4, a compact suppressor developed specifically for 6mm ARC. Built on SureFire’s SOCOM suppressor architecture, the MINI4 is engineered to deliver effective sound reduction while reducing backpressure by approximately 60 percent, according to the company.
The suppressor is designed for users running high-performance 6mm ARC rifles who want a balance of suppression, reduced gas blowback, and minimized added length. Like other SOCOM-series suppressors, it is intended for hard use and compatibility with SureFire mounting systems.
Together, the XC3 Sub, M640T Turbo, and SOCOM6-MINI4 highlight SureFire’s continued focus on role-specific equipment rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Each product addresses a distinct operational niche, from concealed-carry handguns to long-range carbines and specialized rifle calibers.
SureFire reports that all three products are expected to begin shipping in Q1 2026, with availability through authorized dealers and SureFire’s dealer network.
