We’ve been changing the firearm accessories game for years, and we’re committed to providing the most innovative weapon-mounted technologies available. 

Viridian X Series Gen 3 weapon-mounted accessories, including the X5LGen 3 Green Laser Sight, feature the brightest lasers, breakthrough momentary activation technology, brilliant taclights and proprietary INSTANT-ON® activation. Gen 3 models also include a removable, rechargeable battery that eliminates the need to ever buy traditional batteries again. On-board charging with indicator lights allows users to know the exact battery power status in real time.

The X Series Gen 3 products boast sleeker bodies that fit in most holsters designed for the Streamlight®TLR1®. A universal mount, light output of 500 lumens and multiple modes of operation add to the list of features. These upgraded offerings fit most full-size handguns and include an industry-best seven-year limited warranty.
