When the activation switch is rotated past the detent to lock it on, the recoil of the .40 is enough to release the switch and turn it off. Have to push it back on after every shot. It only has this problem in the clockwise direction, which unfortunately happens to be the most convenient way to activate it. If I strain my finger and turn it counter-clockwise instead, it stays on through multiple shots. Anybody else experience this weak detent on their Surefire X400? I had a similar problem. When I used my light i would switch it and the toggle would be “up” on my support hand side. Under recoil my thumb would bump the toggle down turning the light off, it was no fault of the light. When you say you rotate it clockwise I’m assuming the toggle is up on the support hand side (if you’re a righty)… try shooting strong hand only and see if the light still turns itself off stickhog
