A C-series McClickie tailcap ... made for a fellow flashaholic.


I do not have a C-series torch, but I have made some bodies to take C-series tails for other flashaholics. One wanted a bare alloy finish tailcap to go with a bare alloy body, so here is my first effort.

Built in grip ring with three Trit' slots and two lanyard holes. I know only one is needed but this looks more balanced. And a McClickie switch :grin2:

This one does not lock out, but that is an easy upgrade which I will do when I have a little more time to spare.

In the meantime this one is off to its new owner for a 'test drive'. :D


I hope you enjoy - thanks for looking.

Very nice! :goodjob:

I am going to try my hand at making a tail cap too. I wish I had a mill so I could do slots and such.

A mill opens up a whole new horizon - I'm sure we will see loads more new goodies then you get one :)

OH no I'm not - you should see my failures :laughing: .... erm no, maybe you shouldn't.

But thanks for your kind words.

I think HA would look cool too :thinking:
