I care... cause my Blue L2P has that same tailcap. I guess SF is using them on new lights.
Wow...7.79mm thick body! That could be even thicker than the Trunite catapult?
This one, for sure. The baseball bat is overall heavier and more solid, but the handle is not as thick as in Gladiator.
Also The Mace feels quite thin-walled when compared to this.
Well, of course I don't have any spare time, but here we go.. Quick photo with also well-known Mag 3D for size reference:
Do you happen to have a photo of that combination? I'm struggling not to buy MPP-1.
What is the body thickness measured from bottom of those knurlings or rough estimate if it´s not possible to measure accuratelly?
i.e. the "thinnest place" in tube :)
I would probably buy the MPP-2 to go with this combo, if purchasing new.
Pics of the MPP-1:
While not a perfect fit, it balances nicely with the larger head.

he he . . . You're going to love your MPP 1.

Thanks Wayne!
Now I know that I needwant it. But I can't decide: I have always wanted to have MPP-1, and it can use up to 4 x 18650. But then again, MPP-2 would be a good option as well (even though it takes "only" 3 x 18650)..
Luckily there's the good old BLF saying: "When in doubt, take both". 
I have both and people probably get tired of me saying it but; the MPP 1 will give you a new respect for the ubiquitous XR-E. Of the two, the MPP 2 is brighter but the MPP 1 is a thrower extraordinaire. Versatile too - can run on a single 18650 or up to 16 volts and it will screw onto an L2, L2P, L2T, L2X, L2i, L2r, L2m . . . the MPP 2 tube will even work with it. If you own just about any Solarforce light, all you need is the head. In fact, a Surefire 6P will fit as well.
The MPP 1 setup I like best is an L2P body and an extension tube with the S8 switch.

Hmm.. What would be the thickness of the beast?
Let's see..
..just kidding.
Actually it was:
When comparing the Solarforce Gladiator vs. the baseball bat light vs. the durable stick light:
1. Which one has the brightest beam?
2. Which one is the most durable?
3. Which one works best as a weapon?
4. Which one works the best as a flashlight?
1. Gladiator (If you think of total output. The Mace, as a thrower, might be brighter in throw. But then again, Gladiator + MPP-1 head would win hands down..)
2. Gladiator
3. The Mace (especially if filled with lead shot)
4. Gladiator (and even more so if you take into account that you can use also MPP-1 / MPP-2 with the gladiator body)
The beam on the Solarforce Gladiator is very narrow. Is the beam's side spill useable?
Well. The beam on Gladiator depends on the P60 drop-in you use with it.
I'm using a XM-L dropin and, IMHO, the beam is not narrow at all. Actually it's quite the opposite: floody and bright.
Thanks for the feedback on the beam.
_the_, since you own the Solarforce Gladiator, the club, and the baseball bat, if you had to pick only one to keep, which one would you choose.
Tough choice. I think it would be the Gladiator, because it really doubles as a multipurpose flashlight (with changeable dropins / heads).
Where cheapest to get that mpp head ,I like that on the gladiator?
Great review... thanks.
