What type of weight is this guy using?

I think this is a Morini 162. But that model takes weight using an adapter under the cylinder. In the photo though it's installed on the barrel.
Anyone knows anything about this?

It is a 162. There was an option (may still be) to have the weights on the barrel itself. It's been years since I picked mine up:(

It is a standard Morini option. I think they come 4 weights in a set, and they have O-rings inside to keep them in place. I've got one on my 162EI at the moment.

You have to remove the front sight block, and then they slide on. They are one piece cylinders.

So you remove the compensator, correct?

Yes. It's not something you want to fiddle with a lot. The clamp on versions are better for that, but once you got a weight & position you like, you can try to duplicate it with these, which are much "cleaner" in terms of not sticking out and snagging on things.

The FWB P44 uses a weight sliding on 2 aluminum rods that screw onto the side if the gun. It mounts and adjusts without moving the front sight block on the barrel.
