A contact at surefire told my cerakote guy that they use C-240 for the fde suppressor. Figured I'd put that in the thread for people who tied themselves to a black surefire like myself 🤢.
Does anyone else have any conflicting information? Also surefire told me the warden has the same collar. Buy an fde warden, do a collar switch for the anodized collar, spray the tube in C-240, bada bing bada boom color correct suppressor. |

Also yes ive taken them all apart and the mounting collar is the same on all models. |

Those are only present on Warden collars to my knowledge -- RC/RC2 collars don't have them. By extension, if you ever need to make a warranty claim, probably a good idea to switch back to the original collar before sending it in, so they can't make some ridiculous argument that by "disassembling" you've voided your warranty. Yes, SF can be assholes like that. |

Had one for years, just got a second one in a slightly different shade. These are fantastic. Sturdy, huge, light - comfortable. Close to the B5 ones indeed but different. Hard to find nowadays Them Ti-7 Stocks by Solo__, on Flickr |

Anyone try the surefire SFA2 flash hider? The A2 flash hider clone that accepts surefire suppressors.
It doesn't seem to have the same shoulder that the 4 prong does, so if I attached it to my mk18 I don't think I could mount a suppressor, unless I used a dangerous amount of shims. I do like the idea of having a mk18 with an "A2" flash hider. I've always thought the long 4 prong never looked quite right. https://imgur.com/a/jYOWXI7 For the pic thread, here is an awful picture of my mk18. RC2 is off getting cerakoted. |
