Description
For sale is a SureFire Nitrolon P114C weapon light for the SIG P226. This is a vintage light, and was an iconic accessory to DEVGRU-issued P226 Navy pistols from the early 1990s through mid-2000s. It has an always on push switch, and constant on momentary pressure switch. The light is in absolutely mint condition; it sat unopened in its box for 15+ years before I bought it in 2014, and has sat in its box for another 9 years since. Like most SureFire weaponlights prior to LEDs, this light uses drop-in P60 incandescent bulb assemblies, which are pretty dim by modern standards. Included with this light is a P60 LED replacement from LumensFactory, lathe-turned to fit and accompanied with a custom spring since normal drop-ins are too large for the housing. It is much, much brighter and gives far better run-time from the twin CR123A batteries.
Included with the light are:
- The original box
- A mint SureFire MR04 adapter for non-rail SIG P226, complete with original packaging and Allen key
- A spare, damaged, SureFire MR04 adapter. One of the four bolt lugs cracked off the adapter; the backing plate is unharmed, and a cosmetic (epoxy putty) repair has been made. The repair needs a bit of sanding to mirror the other side
- A custom metal adapter backing plate, closer to the shape of airsoft P226 trigger guards, four screws for it, and a custom spacer to go inside the adapter to help support it. This helps position properly and reduces stress on the adapter when fitting it to pistols that don't exactly replicate the P226 trigger guard, which is most of them. The pistol it is pictured fitted to is a PGC-based P226 which is also for sale.
- Two P60 bulb assemblies, one of them so old it's actually marked "Laser Products" instead of SureFire
- The original spring for the LED assembly, in case you want to use it in a different P60 host.
- Not included, but available for sale separately, are the PGC-based P226 it is pictured fitted to, and a vintage Safariland 6xxx-series (I believe a 6004-776) suede-lined Kydex holster to suit the weapon and light. Included is a picture of SEALs in the 2006 Battle of Ramadi; at least the nearest two have this exact combination of weapon and holster.
Note: Like many SureFires designed around incandescent bulbs, the polarity of the bulb terminals is reversed from the modern convention. To allow the use of LEDs, shims have been soldered to the positive battery terminals so that you can simply put the batteries in the wrong way around to get the polarity right for LEDs. You can unsolder the shims if you don't want this feature any more; the light continues to work just fine with incandescent bulbs regardless of which way you put the batteries in.
This P114C, the deluxe model with the pressure switch, is a holy grail of early SureFires, and given that all examples are now 20+ years old you are highly unlikely to ever find another in this condition. For more information on the light, or for more pictures, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Shipping is available, including internationally, at the buyer's cost.
