SureFire Tactical Lights

About SureFire

SureFire's story begins in 1979 when Dr. John Matthews founded Laser Products Corporation, combining his Cal Tech engineering expertise with his passion for firearms.

The company revolutionized the firearms industry by creating the first commercial laser sight for use on a firearm in 1979.

In 1985, SureFire introduced their first weapon-mounted light, pioneering the premium tactical lighting market that they have dominated for over 30 years.

By 2000, the company fully embraced the SureFire name, reflecting their expanded focus beyond laser technology into comprehensive tactical illumination solutions.

Today, SureFire products are used by more SWAT teams and military special operations units than any other brand, maintaining their reputation for mission-critical reliability.
