First Look: SureFire Titan-A Flashlight

January 15, 2015 By G&A Online Editors

SureFire is introducing a new compact, dual-output professional-grade keychain light.

Named the Titan, SureFire's small flashlight features a rugged LED capable of producing up to 125 lumens of light. The Titan also incorporates a proprietary faceted reflector for producing the company's popular MaxVision Beam, which is a wide, evenly dispersed beam perfect for close-range applications.

Powered by an included rechargeable Enelooop AAA NiMH battery, the Titan can run for 2 hours on its 15-lumen low setting or for 30 minutes on its 125-lumen high setting. Activating the LED and selecting the light setting is accomplished with a simple counterclockwise twist of the head.

The 3-inch long, aluminum-bodied flashlight also features an integrated stainless steel ring on its tailcap for the user's keys.

Shooting 600 Yards with .300 Blackout

The .300 Blackout cartridge was developed to provide greater effectiveness than a 9mm at short and medium ranges when fired from a short-barreled suppressed firearm. Just because the cartridge wasn't designed to go long doesn't mean Rifles & Optics Editor Tom Beckstrand won't take it there, using a large-format pistol, no less. Armed with SIG Sauer's 9-inch-barreled MCX Virtus Pistol loaded with Black Hills' 125-grain TMK ammunition, Beckstrand attempts to ring steel at 600 yards with help from Hornady's 4DOF ballistic calculator in this segment of “Long Range Tech.”
