In a fighting pistol, every single advantage matters.

Performance must be retained in all areas; your weapon light is not excluded from this rule.

  • Deflects lens-clouding gasses away from the lens

  • Preserves performance

  • Light weight and highly effective

  • Patent pending

Why us the X300 CMD?

If your weapon light is mounted in close proximity to your muzzle, it’s being exposed to high-pressure gas, unburnt powder, carbon, lead, and copper fouling. In a short period of time this buildup will cloud your light’s lens, rendering your $200+ high-performance light virtually useless. If you can’t see your target, you’re increasing your risk exponentially.

Why does lens protection matter?

Weapon lights have specifications that drive the characteristics of the light’s effectiveness such as: Lumen Output, Beam Angle, Candela Rating, Beam Distance, etc.  The CMD preserves these qualities, which are essential to maintain the highest performing lighting system possible.

Technical Specifications:

  • Material: 6061-T6 Aluminum

  • Finish: Type lll Hardcoat

  • Weight = 0.3oz

  • Designed & Manufactured in the USA

  • Patented

This is the first-of-its-kind lens protection solution for pistol-mounted Surefire X300 weapon lights, engineered in collaboration with professional shooters, law enforcement, and military special operations.

Protect your gear. Preserve your edge.

DISCLAIMER

Not compatible with the X300V.

The CMD was designed to work with as many handguns and duty holsters as possible, however it is impossible to accommodate and test them all.  Each handgun/holster setup is unique, and the variables are infinite.

Handgun compatibility: The CMD is compatible with almost all handguns that can host a X300.  However, handguns that can mount a X300 may have their own tolerances and/or geometry that will interfere with mounting the CMD.  A good example of this being where the top of the X300 bezel is almost flush with the frame.  See Figure 1. 

Figure 1. Not enough clearance between the bezel and rail to mount the CMD.

Holster Compatibility: The CMD has known compatibility with the holsters listed below, however we cannot guarantee fitment on anything that is not listed. As we discover new holsters that are CMD compatible, we will update the list accordingly.

  • Safariland 6000/7000 Series*

  • Alien Gear Rapid Force*

  • US Duty Gear US260/261/280/281/240/241/80/60/40

*CMD-mounted pistols usually can be holstered without issues, however unique holster tolerances may sometimes cause interference. To ensure seamless fitment, we’ve included ultra-thin, holster-specific shims and holster adjustment instructions. See the “Instructions” page for further details.
