I got the bug with the SL, but the IC and every other model have my interest.  I'm scanning GB and see some have different flash hiders.  Some have an A2 looking one, and others have AAC.  I don't have a suppressor, but they look pretty cool.  Did they leave the factory with the AAC (or some others I've seen), or is it a crap shoot as to what you actually get.  On GB the asking price for an AAC isn't any higher.  Too many choices.

I know, get one of each--I'm leaning 14.7, but after that it will take me until next year to decide between the SPR, or not, as well as the 16 has a bayo lug, cause you need that.  But not on the 14, as 14 guys don't bayo.  Even then I'd need a FDE, or green or black.  Did I mention the other options

They come with the AAC if I remember correctly.

I however chose to do something different with my 14.7

I'm not 100% certain on this issue, but I suspect that the "enhanced" ICs have the AAC mount.  I don't know about the SPRs, though.  That being said, it's not all that hard to swap out a muzzle device if it's not pinned, and if it is, there are a host of people who are capable of doing a very competent job at it.

I'm going by the pics and some have descriptions, but some also just use a stock photo.  I'm also thinking if I stick that kind of money out there, I'd hate to also spring for a new muzzle device.

I have bought three in the last six months. I had the option of the flash hider on all three. Took two with the ACC. Had to  pay a slight amount more for them.

They can be ordered with any FH/MD. FWIW my IC (14.7") does have a bayonet lug, which I don't need or care for. I have a 14.7" SPR that is still my favorite.

Standard factory configuration comes with the LWRC 4 prong flash hider.
They can be ordered with other options, and there are some dealers out there who will swap them at their shop for you.
Typically an up-charge for this, because the aftermarket hider will cost more.

The SL might come with an A2 hider standard, but I will have to check, not completely sure.

I bought a bayonet just to go with mine. Never know when I might need to use the poking attachment on zombies.

So I ended up winning an auction for a BNIB M6-SL for 1199.99.  Although all the others caught my eye, I really wanted a SL.  I was hoping for a 16, but at the price I'm fine.

Are you saying the barrel is 14.7" on said auction rifle? I've owned both lengths in 556 from L'dub and notice no difference in performance. I find the shorter of the two very handy and just the slightest bit lighter. Anyhoo, the SL is a great rifle, like to add one of those to my collection.
