The new AZ2 LED CombatLight<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> features two output levels, a rugged hard-anodized aluminum body, a tactical tailcap switch, and SureFire\u2019s patented CombatGrip, making it the optimal choice for pairing with a handgun.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">The AZ2\u2019s dual-output capability and compact size make it an ideal choice as a primary light for law enforcement officers to carry with them every day. It features a virtually indestructible primary LED that generates a far-reaching, 150-lumen beam capable of temporarily overpowering an aggressor\u2019s vision. Surrounding the main LED is a ring of four secondary LEDs that produce a 35-lumen wide-angle beam designed for loading gear or other closer-range tasks that don\u2019t require so much light or reach. Both beams are shaped by a special micro-textured reflector that blends the light so there are no rings, dark spots, or imperfections.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">The flashlight\u2019s body is precision milled from high-strength aerospace aluminum, which is as strong as steel but much lighter, and then covered with a Mil-Spec hard-anodized finish that\u2019s nearly as hard as diamonds. The body is stepped down to reduce weight and improve ergonomics, part of SureFire\u2019s exclusive CombatGrip, which along with a rubber grip ring, allows the light to be held and operated \u201csyringe style\u201d when paired with a handgun, as well as provides excellent hold in cold or wet conditions or while wearing gloves. Partially depressing the tailcap pushbutton switch delivers the low output; pressing further unleashes all 150 lumens from the light\u2019s primary LED.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">Weighing in at only 5.1 ounces and measuring less than six inches in length, the AZ2 is compact and combat ready\u2014especially when paired with a quick-deploy holster like SureFire\u2019s fully adjustable V85A. The AZ2 currently retails for $260, and the V85A holster is sold separately for $49. Both are available from an authorized SureFire dealer or directly from SureFire at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.surefire.com\"><strong>www.surefire.com<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About SureFire<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Located in Fountain Valley, California, SureFire is a leading manufacturer of high-performance flashlights, weapon-mounted lights, and other tactical equipment for those who go in harm\u2019s way, or anyone who demands the ultimate in quality, innovation, and performance.
