Gunslinger Tactical, a company from Holly Springs, North Carolina, has introduced a new weapon-mounted illumination and aiming device called SeraphIM. Attaching to the handguard of a firearm via a 1913 rail, the SeraphIM integrates several LED and IR lights and lasers with a front grip. One of the primary advantages provided by this device is the minimal exposure of the shooter’s body when using a light or laser to aim around a corner. The built-in joystick allows smooth transitioning between the different lights and lasers.

In the picture below, you can see the difference in body exposure with lights mounted in different locations on the handguard compared with the SeraphIM.
The SeraphIM has the following construction and controls.
The Gunslinger Tactical SeraphIM has the following three operation modes:
CORNER
Visible Light Mode: two visible side-mounted LEDs focus for 30m and in for aiming around corners in “Corner” mode with adjustable 30-300+ lumens of output each.
IR Light Mode: two IR corner LEDs with up to 3.5mW of power.
ATTACK
Visible Light Mode: one visible white center mounted flood LED for assisting in peripheral vision around user's feet in “Attack” mode.
IR Light Mode: two IR corner LEDs with up to 3.5mW of power.
STEALTH
Visible Light Mode: Center-mounted red flood LED can be used in “Stealth” mode to prevent light pollution in tactical environments and protect eyes' natural night vision.
While the SeraphIM is a rather bulky device, the amount of illumination and aiming options it provides may justify its size to many users.
Gunslinger Tactical is also developing a product with the same functions as the SeraphIM but with a different layout; instead of attaching to the rail, it is integrated into the handguard of the firearm and has an overall more compact profile.
