Viridian 9300015 X5L Gen3 Laser/Tactical Light Combo 5mW Green Laser with 510-520nm Wavelength, ECR & 100 yds Day/2 mi Night Range, 500 Lumens Creed LED Light Black Finish for Rail Equipped Pistol

The Viridian X5L Gen3 is a dual-function laser and tactical light combo built for shooters who need reliable target acquisition and illumination in one compact unit. Designed for rail-mounted pistols, this green laser sight pairs a 5mW green laser with a 500-lumen LED light, giving you flexible options whether you're training at the range, practicing home defense scenarios, or carrying for personal protection. The Gen3 represents the latest evolution of Viridian's proven platform, combining the brightness and visibility of modern LED technology with the precision of green laser targeting.

What sets the X5L Gen3 apart is its versatility. Six operating modes let you choose solid or pulsing laser, solid or strobe light, or any combination—so you can dial in exactly what the situation demands. The green laser delivers visibility out to 100 yards in daylight and extends to 2 miles at night, making it effective whether you're shooting in broad daylight or low-light conditions. The 500-lumen CREE LED throws serious light downrange and is bright enough to disorient a threat or light up a target area fast. Both systems work independently or together, giving tactical shooters and home defenders real tactical flexibility.

The X5L Gen3 is built to stay in the fight. Its removable rechargeable battery charges on-board with an integrated indicator so you always know your power status. The unit is sleek enough to fit most holsters designed for Streamlight TLR accessories, and its compact footprint—just 2¾" from the trigger guard—keeps your pistol balanced and practical to carry. At 3 ounces, it won't bog down your handgun. If you run an INSTANT-ON compatible holster, the laser and light activate the moment you draw and shut off when you re-holster—no thinking, no fumbling with switches under stress.

Rail mounting is secure and universal, so installation is straightforward on any Picatinny-equipped pistol. Whether you shoot striker-fired duty guns, competition pistols, or defensive carbines with rail sections, the X5L Gen3 adapts to your platform.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pistols does the X5L Gen3 fit?

The X5L Gen3 mounts to any full-sized railed pistol via universal Picatinny rail mounting. Its compact profile is designed to fit holsters made for Streamlight TLR accessories, so if your holster supports that standard, you're likely good to go. Always verify rail compatibility with your specific platform before purchase.

Can I use just the laser, or just the light?

Yes. The X5L Gen3 includes a dedicated solid-light-only mode, and you can run the laser independently as well. Six operating modes give you solid or pulsing laser alone, light alone, or any laser/light combination you need for the moment.

How long does the battery last, and how do I charge it?

The X5L Gen3 uses a removable rechargeable battery that charges on-board with an integrated charging port. The unit includes a battery indicator light so you can monitor charge status. Extra batteries and chargers are available separately.

Does the INSTANT-ON feature work with any holster?

INSTANT-ON technology activates the laser and light when you draw and turns them off when you holster, but it requires a compatible INSTANT-ON holster. If you don't have one, you can upgrade a compatible holster with an INSTANT-ON upgrade kit. Check with the holster manufacturer to confirm compatibility.
