Surefire G2X Tactical<br />
T<br />
he G2X Tactical is a compact<br />
yet powerful polymer-body<br />
flashlight designed specifically<br />
for tactical use.<br />
Providing simplicity of<br />
operation and tremendous illuminating<br />
power in a small<br />
package, it uses a high-efficiency<br />
LED - virtually immune<br />
to failure since there’s<br />
no filament to burn out or<br />
break - to generate a brilliant, penetrating, perfectly<br />
pre-focused 320-lumen beam.<br />
The G2X is activated by our classic tactical<br />
tailcap switch - press for momentary-on, twist for<br />
constant-on. The tough Nitrolon® polymer body<br />
is smoothly sculpted for a comfortable, secure<br />
grip and resists scratches, abrasion, and corrosion.<br />
A polycarbonate micro-textured reflector delivers<br />
a comparatively wider beam with generous<br />
peripheral light.<br />
We also make an aerospace aluminium-body<br />
version of this light, the 6PX Tactical and a dualoutput<br />
version with a two-stage click-type tailcap<br />
switch, the G2X Pro.<br />
Features<br />
• Virtually indestructible LED emitter regulated to<br />
maximize light output and runtime<br />
• Precision micro-textured reflector creates smooth,<br />
optimized beam<br />
• Tough polycarbonate window resists impact<br />
• Tough Nitrolon ® body, anodized aluminum bezel<br />
• Tactical tailcap switch—press for momentary-on,<br />
twist for constant-on<br />
• Weatherproof—O-ring and gasket sealed<br />
• Includes high-energy 123A batteries with 10-year<br />
shelf life<br />
