Best Light For Sig P320

Using a weapon light with a handgun is a common practice nowadays. While some still prefer laser sight for handguns, others will simply take a red dot or night sight and pair it with a weapon light.

Speaking of sights, if you are looking for the best sight for Sig P320, you can head over right here. But if you are looking for the best light for Sig P320, you can stick around and find that out in a bit.

Well folks, welcome to another guide on the internet to influence your decision. Jokes aside, welcome. I hope you will find the read as fun as I had while writing it. Enough blabbering, let’s start this party already.

How To Choose a Light For Sig P320?

Well, there you have it. Some of the very best lights for Sig Sauer P320. I can understand if you are still having trouble selecting one among them, let me help you a bit on that topic.

I can understand that 7 choices to choose from can be a bit overwhelming. But if you think about it a bit rationally, the decision making is not that hard. Let me explain.

You can make your decision based on the throw distance alone! If you have no use of long-range light, then you can stick with something like the Mini Valkyrie. But if you want more, then the bigger Valkyrie. My point is, that you need to decide on what distance of LED you want.

And you can make your decision based on the price as well. I can understand SureFire may not be everyone’s first choice. That’s because those lights can be pretty expensive. As you can see, cheap lights are becoming good slowly. So, if you want to spend a small amount of money but get big value out of it, you can do that as well.

1. SureFire XH30 WeaponLights w/MasterFire (RDH)

How can you start a post about light without the mighty SureFire? It’s like the Mustang of weapon lights. A little bit expensive, but a classic and will never be forgotten. And it’s one of the best at its job as well. The XH30 is a higher-end model from SureFire. The light is equipped with a MasterFire interface rapid deployment holster.

The LED on the torch is a 1000 Lumen one. With two modes of operation, you can choose from 1000 lumens or 300 lumens. Depending on the mode you operate the light at, the battery life will change drastically. The maximum throw of this LED is around 213 meters.

With an insane distance like that, you are free to do whatever you want to do with the gun. Self-defense, tactical missions, or even as a backup weapon for hunting. Yes, the deal would have been sweeter if it had a laser as well, but it’s not needed.

What kind of battery does this require?

It requires two CR123A batteries and with that battery, you will get around 2.5 hours of life at low intensity mode and 1.25 hours at maximum intensity.

Is it waterproof?

Yes, it is. The light lens is sealed with O-ring gaskets. Making it impossible for water to breach inside the chamber.

Is this light ambidextrous?

Yes, it is. You can easily turn it on with either the right or the left hand. Up to you.

2. Streamlight TLR-8A Flex 500 Lumen pistol light

Streamlight is one of the biggest competitors of SureFire on the market. Both of them are top-tier brands and their rivalry has brought so much competition on the field! It’s better for us consumers.

We are getting better deals in the fight between them. This light from Streamlight is equipped with a 500 lumen LED.

The maximum distance of this LED is 140 meters. That’s quite a bit of power for such a small weapon light with 500 lumen LED. While the spread control needed to be a bit better, the bleed isn’t excessive enough to throw your vision off center.

The weight of the light is just 74.84 grams. That’s extremely light for a flashlight with a laser sight as well. The laser involved here is a red colored one. It’s completely within the legal limit set by the state.

How long will the combo last me?

The combo will continuously run for around 1.5 hours with maximum intensity. As the flashlight intensity is not modifiable, you are stuck with either using both at a time or using the laser only. If you run it in laser only mode, it will run you around 60 hours.

Does it have a safe on/off feature?

Yes, it does. The safe off feature comes in the clutch to prevent accidental activation. You can find the safety switch on the bezel of the light.

Will I get any warranty with this light?

Yes, you will. You will find the necessary documentation in the package that cites “limited lifetime warranty”.

3. SureFire X300 Ultra Series LED WeaponLight

The next light is also from SureFire. This time, the light is not as compact as other counterparts. It has a bit of an extended front and features a TIR lens. TIR lens is known to be durable, robust, scratch resistant, and reflects light well. Thus making it a good choice for a long-range flashlight.

Speaking of range, it has a maximum throw distance of 213 meters. Which is exactly the same distance as XH30. After all, both flashlights are quite similar in looks and size. The X300 is also available in a tan color. With the black accent on that color, the light looks insanely good visually.

The maximum lumens of this LED is also 1000. It’s not a dull looking LED. The white LED is a bit biased towards the yellowish-green spectrum. The visual glow of that light is quite appealing to the eye. It doesn’t hurt or fatigue your eye if you look through it or at it for a long time.

Does it have a laser LED as well?

No, it doesn’t. You are only getting the white LED and that’s about it.

What kind of batteries does it use?

The light needs two CR123A lithium batteries to operate. And it comes equipped with two of them as well.

Is it made in the USA?

It is assembled in the USA. Some of the parts are imported from overseas, but it is assembled in a factory in the USA. Thus making it made in the USA by the American Act.

4. OLIGHT Baldr Pro 1350 Lumens Tactical Weaponlight

The Baldr series of gun lights has been dominating the market for years now. Both the Mini and the Pro variant of Baldr is one of a kind. The Pro is equipped with a powerful 1350 lumens LED. It’s a white LED with a green laser equipped underneath.

The maximum throw distance of this LED is around 260 meters! It’s insane to think about just how much area you can cover up with this LED. The green laser included in the light is also a Class 3. It follows the regulations and is completely legal.

The aluminum body of this light is extremely durable. It has survived up to 1 meter of drop test with ease. If anything, your light will outlast your weapon and you even. The weight of the light is just a little less than 130 grams with batteries. That’s extremely light for a flashlight with a laser. In fact, if you call this one of the best Sig Sauer P320 laser light combo, you wouldn’t even be wrong.

Does this light have any warranty?

Yes, it does. It has a limited lifetime warranty included in the package. You will get a replacement if the light is defective.

Does it support Glock rails?

Yes, it does. It supports most rails out there. It comes with GL and Picatinny rail adapters. The light is equipped with a Glock rail by default.

Is it suitable for lefties?

Yes, it is. The ambidextrous switch placement makes it easy to activate with both hands. Doesn’t matter what your dominant arm is.

5. Streamlight 69260 TLR-1 HL 1000-Lumens Light

The TLR-1 was a huge success from the Streamlight team. The TLR-1 HL is nothing less than spectacular either! In fact, it’s one of the most used handgun lights on the market right now. Wherever you look for it, you will find thousands of other users backing it up with their opinions.

The TLR-1 HL is made out of extremely durable aluminum. The aluminum is processed through CNC machining. And the finish on this aluminum chassis will be different depending on your choice. You can get it in black, flat dark earth, and flat dark earth brown.

The LED inside is 1000 lumens. It has a peak candela of 20k. At peak intensity, the light is capable of reaching an astonishing 283 meters of throw distance! That’s absurd, to say the least. You don’t expect this type of power in this compact format. Perhaps, that’s the reason why most people like this light so much. Or maybe it’s just the price tag. Yeah, it’s extremely affordable.

How many batteries do I need for this light?

You will need two CR123A lithium batteries. With both combined, you will get around 1.50 hours of continuous battery life. Which isn’t much, but replacing the batteries is quite inexpensive and easy.

Does Streamlight offer any warranty?

Yes, they do. They offer a limited lifetime warranty with their product. You will find the holographic sticker on the package and warranty instructions as well.

Does it fit Sig Sauer P226 MK-25?

Yes, it does. You don’t need to worry about fitting or gunsmithing.

6. Olight PL- Pro Valkyrie 1500 lumens weapon light

Olight has a tendency to make two versions of one light. The same is true in this instance as well. The PL-Pro has a younger brother called PL-Mini, about which you will find out in a short while.

As for the Pro Brother, this one is equipped with the most powerful LED among the bunch. With 1500 lumens LED and a peak of 19,600 candelas, the Valkyrie is capable of throwing up to 280 meters.

With that humongous distance, you can carry this light to any given task. Whether it’s a tactical assault or a hunting night, you can take this light and illuminate a humongous range in front of you.

The best part of this light is the rechargeable battery. That’s right, it’s equipped with a 900 mAh lithium polymer battery. The light comes with a magnetic charger. As it comes with a magnetic USB cable, you can use your power bank to charge the light on the go. Making the process even more seamless.

How do you know if the light is fully charged?

The light comes with an indicator LED. When the LED glows red, that means the battery is low. And when you recharge it and the LED glows green, that means it’s fully recharged.

Should I get the magnetic pressure switch?

In my opinion, yes. That magnetic remote pressure switch connects in the same position as the charger and it sits there firmly. Thanks to that cable, you can turn on the light without spreading your fingers to reach the button on the light.

Is Olight made in the USA?

No, it’s not. Olight is a Chinese brand. It’s made in a factory in Shenzhen.

7. Olight PL-Mini 2 Valkyrie 600 lumens LED Light

Last but not least, the cheapest LED that I will recommend for the Sig P320 is another light from Olight. This one is the smaller brother of PL-Pro as I stated earlier. It’s mini in every sense. It’s smaller, it’s less powerful, and it has less throw distance.

But the light is not poorly made by any means. The light is still constructed for durable aluminum through CNC machining. The light also has a strong layer of lens that is waterproof and scratch resistant to some degree. It also has a drop test rating of 1m.

The powerhouse of this light is a 600 lumens LED. It’s capable of generating 2500 candela and reaching a maximum throw distance of 100 meters. Which is not bad per say. But when you consider the other lights (which are more expensive), it will seem a bit low.

What’s the total warranty length?

It’s 2 years. Which is more than most Chinese made lights provide. Some of them don’t even provide a warranty.

Is this rechargeable as well?

That’s right, it is. It also uses the same magnetic charging plate. You will also find a USB rechargeable cable inside the package. You can use your power bank to recharge it on the go.

Will this support Picatinny rail?

Yes, it will. It’s made to support both Glock and Picatinny rail.

Conclusion

That didn’t take that long. I hope you found this guide useful and informative. It doesn’t matter which one of the lights you opt for, all of them are good Sig P320 lights. Some of them are better than others. That also means they are more expensive. But it’s a price worth paying.

With that said, I have to end our discussion here. I have said what I needed to. I hope you come back later for more informative posts like this. Till then, take care and have fun.
