EDcase Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Hey Snuff, I looked into small (pistol) tracer units if that's what you're after. They'll fit rifles as well. Got it down to two options: Acetech Lighter S NEW version. Note the front is different from the older model Xcoretech XT301 MK2 Didn't get one yet.

strykerles Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I've got one of these got a lighter S built in, charges via usb and looks good inside a handguard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
concretesnail Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I tried a tracer with the 4AA batteries in a suppressor and found it annoying as it added a lump if weight on the end of a long barrel. Ive got a xcortech mk2 now and it's great. The uv keeps light signature down. It weights nothing and it can be fit inside a variety of suppressor and flash hiders if you want too I've dont it sometimes depending on the look I want that day.

Shamal Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I've got the xcortech xt301. It's a great little unit. Put it on my ares amoeba 013 and it performs great even with full auto. Can put it on we m9 as well. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiK Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 @snuff I got a Acetech Lighter BT it’s super bright and does both Green & Red BB’s and it’s a Chrono too. Tis on the slightly higher price point £89 but its really well made, sturdy & weighs nowt, one charge lasts ages unless I’m doing lots of Chrono’ing/bluetoothing to the app. Hope this helps and not hinders your decision. /sidenote Something I wasn’t aware off till I had a external chrono sticking a tracer on your gun will up the guns FPS by 5-10 (depending on size) worth remembering if you gun is close to limit before you attach it .

snuff Posted September 12, 2020 Author Share Posted September 12, 2020 Thanks for all the help,I'm sorted now.A friend purchased the longer Acetech,that prompted me to buy one but I wanted a more compact one.I got a Noveske KX3(thanks @strykerles and the forum again)and as coincidence would have it I have a Noveske AEG....😳 P.S. I just realised it has the Acetech lighter tracer inside... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
