Folks with their 10.3" 0.070" gas ports. When suppressed, where are your casings ejecting at? Mine is at 2 o'clock.

Also ups my chances of matching the anodizing to my Colt uppers. If I had more confidence I could get an 80% anodized to be very similar to Colt anodizing, I'd probably go that route. |

Sorry if this has already been discussed here. Does the surefire m600 work well for the CQBR block ll or am I better off using the m300?
Any one have pics of their M600 so I don’t have to look through all 1100 pages |

Either one you go with I'd prob ditch the mount and use that gear sector you got. The thumb screw messes with me at lest. Every grip that felt normal would leave the thumb nut in the way except for the choke hold on a vfg. Keep in mind, with a suppressor, you can get the m600 out a Loy farther than the m300. That's one advantage. And the fact that the m600df can achieve 1500 lumens is pretty cool. I'm sure the m300 is prob about that bright by now. Matter of preference more than anything.

He suspects from eyeballing them, pretty low round count. He did tell me they look ugly because of he way they were clamped in the cruisers removed a lot of the finish on them, but sounded to me like nothing a little rattle can or cerakote wont fix.
