Been looking for a 3P, can't find one! Always to late in Marketplace or it is above my budget:mecry:. I ordered a M30 drop-in from Gene Malkoff wich I can use in one of my 6P's with an AW 17670 until I can hopefully find one. Is there a good 3P clone? If there is where can I get one? I would appreciate some advice on this.
 
I couldn't find one, but people have modified Surefire weaponlight bodies with spacers to make a 3p-alike.
 
Thanks Chrontius. I am still searching myself. A company called Vital Gear makes a body called FB1, you have to buy an E2C adapter, (wich they also make), to fit P series head but can't find where to buy them. Searched the Marketplace and found several of these bodies but they were already sold. I will keep looking and eventually I might get lucky!
 
You can get Vital Gear parts from SupremeCo. I've ordered from them a few times without issue. I like Vital Gear E2C adapter, but the switches in the Vital Gear bodies are awful. Stick with a Surefire E1* body (or an Aleph 1x123 body if you don't want the clip) and whatever E2C adapter (Surefire and TnC make them as well) and tailcap you prefer.
 
Funny you should ask about this. I made a 3P clone out of an A19 and weaponlight adaptor....

If Leef made a 3P clone body I'll bet he could sell a truckload..
 
Will a Malkoff M30 or M60 fit in the SuperFire WF501??
Thanks
I am looking for some good priced hosts for the M60 in fact but the M30 could also be interesting.
