Hi @accidentalDECO
I dived an Outlaw for a couple hundred dives before I abandoned it, for a variety of reasons Aqualung Outlaw I dived the Outlaw with between 8 and 20 lbs of weight.
The Outlaw is designed to accept either the releasable weight pockets OR the trim weight pockets, not both. Yes you can get 10 lbs of hard weight into each of the releasable pockets, 2x5. If you needed more weight in the BC, you could add tank band trim pockets, like I tried, to get some of my weight out of the releasable pockets. Of course, you could always use a weight belt, the balance of the BC might be better. If you need quite a bit of weight, I second the suggestion to dive with a steel cylinder. A steel 100 would allow you to take off about 4 lbs.
