Advantage:
Weighing approximately 45% less than comparable steel batons, the
ASP Airweight loses only 2% of the striking potential of its heavier
counterpart. The 7075 aluminum tubing for the baton is custom fabricated
to ASP specifications. This is the same alloy that is used in the
receiver of the M16. It is extremely strong. The striking surface of the
Airweight is 4140 steel tubing. In addition to being noticeably lighter,
ASP Airweights move more rapidly than steel batons. They allow a faster
“bridge” between strikes.
