Smith & Wesson 327 TRR8 co2 .177 Pistol









Smith & Wesson 327 TRR8 co2 .177 Pistol Review

I recently got my hands on a silver version of the S&W 327 TRR8, and what a great gun it is, first off are the looks - this is a very realistic co2 pistol, its nice and heavy, full metal and feels and looks and works like a real firearm, its shoots really good too with little recoil as all co2 gun have.
Also as mentioned it is co2, with the co2 bulb going into the handle, and for loading the pellets instead of a removable magazine like some co2 pistol this has individual cartridges that you insert the metal b.b.s into, and then insert those into the cylinder like a real revolver, it has 2 picatinny rails, one on top and one at bottom of the barrel for various sights and laser etc.
Accuracy is great too and for general plinking you can hit cans/bottles easy and with the glowing open sights you can zero in really quickly, it is also double action for added speed / accuracy too.

This is a  a great gun and well worth buying, really cool looking, and very realistic!

Modded Maglite Flashlight (lead weighted & lanyard)







 

Modded 3 D-Cell Maglite Flashlight - with added lead weight for self defence and a lanyard.

The lanyard was made by drilling two holes in the pommel of the maglite, inserting paracord , tying it off and filling the holes with silicone sealant to keep the flashlight waterproof,

The lead is inserted around the bulb holder but leaving a gap so the bulb can still move freely for focusing, then some strips of lead were added to the top under the reflector. this changes the weight from 23oz or 674g to 31oz or 900g.

The reason for these modification is to turn a decent flashlight into an even better self defence weapon, you now have a self tighten lanyard - meaning the flashlight cannot be pulled out of your hand and lots of added weight in the striking end for a lot of a heavier hit.

These are very easy mods to do, anyone who can drill a hole and get hold of lead can do this, well worth doing in my opinion. doesn't now change the over looks of the flashlight and chances are no one would ever know the lead was there either.

I hope you liked this entry, please feel free to share it and comment, Thanks
