M249 TRacer Box Mag
So I wanted to have the ability to run my 249 with tracers and all the options I had were $80-$150 and looked like Silencers.
What LMG do you see with a Silencer? Not very many and as I wanted to keep mine at the Para length that was out of the question so I began to ponder on how I could illuminate my box mag to then in turn illuminate the BBS.
Then when walking through Wally World(walmart) i found some 4inch long white LED strips(2 per pack) that run off 12 watch Batteries or can be wired for 12v(i went with using the Batteries)
What I did to Install them
Removed the whole inner part of my mag and lined both sides of the feed path with the light strips ran all the wiring under the guts of the mag internals.
Drilled a hole in the side of my Box mag Shell for a switch
Installed the switch and wired everything back up.
Reinstalled the internals and shaaaabam a box mag with 120lums of power to illuminate the BBS as they are sitting in the Mag.
Pics to come as I am doing this mod again for another Mag and will actually take pics as i Go.
