Hello CPF members!!

I am wondering if any of you are interested in modding my Blackhawk Gladius light. I really enjoy this light and the UI, but only downfall is its not bright enough.

So hoping someone on here might be able to mod it for me. Let me know. Thanks.

That's actually where I bought the light from. however, he said that he wasn't all that confident in doing it with a light he is selling. I don't blame him though. I wouldn't have done it either if I was going to sell the light because I wouldn't want anything to happen to it.

I modded my Gladius with a SSC P4 a long time ago. From memory it was a real PITA to get a nice beam. Another option would be to get a modern'ish Thrunite like a Lynx or Scorpion.

Back when Milky was doing mods he had a mod for this. I thought you could actually get the mod done by Blackhawk...

Yep, here's a thread about upgrading

And you'll find the first link it that to the Milkyspit thread. Doesn't look like it's a go now. Try Vinh at his forum here or at Skylumen.com

I went through a bunch of Milkyspit Mods he did great work (back in the day...)
