Solscud007 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) So I have a bunch of these tungsten carbide slugs lying around. I was playing around with them and found out that two of them are almost the same size as a CR123 battery. I test fitted them in one of my Surefire X300 pistol lights. The light weighs 2.6 oz. With two regular CR123 the light weighs 3.7oz. Making the 2xCR123 weigh 1.1oz. Now add the four tungsten carbide weights to the light brings it to a whopping 9.8 oz!!!! The four weights alone are about 7.1oz. Do you think people would be interested in buying these weights to add inside their pistol weaponlights? diameter wise they are a perfect fit but are a tad shorter. So there is a little bit of play and they shift a tiny bit. But that can be remedied with a spacer. Like a small piece of folded paper.

Sarge Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Maybe you could sponsor Bob Vogel . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trgt Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Maybe you could sponsor Bob Vogel . I had a class with him where he showed it to us, I believe when he first started playing with it. ... I wonder if size/shape of the slugs would fit in magazine basepads for carry optics, were it sounds like you can weight up and you have extra room loading to only 10. Maybe help the plastic gun folks compete with CZ, or let CZ get close to the limit ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aircooled6racer Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Hello, well you could use one battery and a weight in line so that the light still works. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
