Thanks for pointing that out! That will make the above mentioned extendable baton even cheaper: $11.89 with code bgaclf (try resisting that unknown00101! ;))
I considered buying one, but at only 32.5mm long, it would be completely useless as a baton. Where does BG find such small hand models? :zipper_mouth_face:
Itās so tiny. I must have one now!
Hey! Think positive! At least it will be street legal everywhere! 
..and the 0.1mm led will throw quite well, I think.
I have one. It is 415mm long extended (16 3/8 inches). Itās heavy and solid.
That charger/battery comboā¦that cash was earmarked for something else!!! 
Me too. Not as solid as Gladiator, but smaller (when retracted = easier to carry) and lighter (= faster to swing) & solid enough (= makes damage). My favorite baton light at the moment!
not making this any easier.
Iām interested again, then, and amazed it can extend from 32.5mm to 415mm.
Is it sturdy enough not to bend or break if a strong adult male hit something like an attacking bear or moose at full force with it?
Also, couldnāt it be passed off officially as a backup flashlight rather than a weapon if one were questioned by the PoPo?
EDIT: Seems to be a lot of room inside this light for mods, another plus.
Does this enable help?
Here's a comparison photo containing the same light (topmost):
..and another with the light extended:
The bottom one with the spiked mace head is wicked cool.
My only concern with this one is the rigidity when extended.
Also it can be got from BG: Mace for $13.79 (with coupon blf) [Try explaining to police officer: "Sir, those are just cooling fins..."]
I think the rigidity of the extending one is not a problem, but then again, I haven't hit anyone with that (yet!)
The spiked one is the least rigid of those four. But that's not bad either.
Itās pretty solid. I think it would easily crack heads without any worry of it breaking.
Since I doubt any cop would believe itās just a flashlight, might as well just carry a baton. Iām surprised these places donāt carry traditional telescoping batons.
A 5D Maglight is longer and weighs three times as much.
How about the Maglite 6D (19.5ā/495.3mm long) with a Malkoff drop-in?
If thatās not long enough, find the Maglite 2 D extension tubes on ebay.
