A firearm accessory to couple to a firearm, the firearm including a trigger, firing mechanism, and barrel, a distal end of the barrel defining a front of the firearm, the firearm accessory comprising:
- a housing defining a central bore and a rail connector, the housing further defining two cavities disposed at the top of the housing on opposite sides and having openings exposed at the front of the housing;
- two visible light sources each disposed in a cavity of the two cavities, the two visible light sources each including an emitter, a reflector, and a lens;
- and
- a plurality of infrared light sources, two infrared light sources of the plurality of infrared light sources disposed on the opposite sides of the housing below the cavities;
- and
- an electrical interface disposed to open at a rear of the housing.
A mounting system for a firearm, the firearm comprising a grip, a trigger, a cartridge, and a barrel, a distal end of the barrel defining a front end of the firearm, the mounting system comprising:
- a rail assembly extending along the barrel and positioned forward of the grip, trigger, and cartridge, the rail assembly including a plurality of accessory rails and a control rail;
- a handle attached to the control rail at a position forward of the trigger, the handle comprising a power supply and a mode switch;
- and
- a head assembly mounted to the rail assembly proximal to the front end of the firearm and in electronic communication with the handle, the head assembly including two optical devices operable to project different spectrum, the mode switch operable to selectively enable operation of a select optical device of the two optical devices.
