Will this new replacement tailcap fit on the 6P and G2 series of flashlights? This is a very good compromise for what I've been looking for. I especially like the fact that the pressure switch cable is detachable from the main body/tailcap of the flashlight. My G2 host is attached to my carbine via the SF M79 quick-release gun mount so that I can just take the flashlight off quickly, should I choose to.
SureFire XM07 tailcap switch on 6P/G2?

The STXX tape switch comes in the following part numbers: ST03, ST04, ST06, ST07, ST08, ST10, ST12, ST14, ST16, ST18. The last 2 digits are the length in inches.
Thanks! :thumbsup:

Note that SureFire's proprietary plug & socket is quite stiff to prevent accidental disconnection. You'll need some cable slack available to easily (quickly) disconnect it because it's a snap-fit that requires a bit of a jerk/yank to unplug.
P.S.
Don't pull the cable in an attempt to unplug it - always pull whilst gripping the plug. Some people suggest a little twist of the plug in the socket as you're pulling it out can help ease it out.
You may find that the cost of the XM00 (no tape pressure switch supplied) and the STxx tape pressure switch cable (of xx whole inches length) is almost as expensive as puchasing an XM07 (7" cable seems to be the most popular cable length) and the STxx you want. Something to consider. This is especially the case if you shop around for the XM07. Not as many Dealers offer the STxx or even keep them in stock.
There are SureFire Dealers specialising in supporting the WeaponLight side of the market. The important thing is to shop around to find the Dealer that best supports your needs.
