Yes, he absolutely bought it from you. There is a sale/sold post on his thread Jan 11 2010, that he 'received' his. He's past on and I inherited his light collection. It was a vast collection, and I am trying to identify some unmarked pieces. Can you please tell me more about these two? Like what are they exactly called, and what would they fit?

"Custom FM M series 2x 18650 body" should do it. This body is compatible with Surefire M3 and KT4 heads and Surefire C series tailcaps.

Sorry to hear about your brother.

These appear to be flashlight bodies. They will need a head (with lamp assembly), batteries, and tail switch to fully function.

According to the sale page, these take Surefire M series heads, C series tail caps.

Hey @carol4rose so sorry to hear about your brother.

As far as what they "are", they're Fivemega Custom Flashlight Bodies. I wouldn't say there's a name or model number.

Can anyone confirm if they're 3 or 4-cell bodies?

Not sure how versed you are on Surefire terminology, but on the end with the small threads, these will accept a Surefire tailcap switch that would also fit a Surefire 6P and similar models. On the large end, they will accept the same head that a Surefire M3/M4/M6 would accept ("M-series" with M standing for "Millennium").

There's a company called Lumens Factory that makes replacement heads and accessories.

I can't tell 100% from the picture, but @fivemega are these M4 length bodies that would take 2 18650's?

If they'll take 2 18650's, you can run them on either of these heads:

Lumens Factory

Lumens Factory

www.lumensfactory.com

For a tailswitch, these and ones with the same thread pattern will fit:

Lumens Factory

www.lumensfactory.com

(if it fits a Surefire 6P/M3 or M4, it will fit this light)​

​

Good luck. Any more info we can provide, please let us know.

Thanks soooo much for your reply. I have had a few years learning the 'light' lingo. I would say I am an intermediate now! LOL. They are 2x18650. bodies. I did actually chat with fivemega. Got all the info I needed. And found my brothers purchase order on this forum too !!!
