...and close on DM51's toes, my HA-BK puppies. Top to bottom - a very special U2, K2-M, A2:
Can't forget the bezel shots:

Nice Surefires greenLED.
Those A2s look too good.
GreenLED, that is a beautiful trio you have.
Resistance is futile...
Thanks, guys.
I'm trying to avoid getting attached to the K2-M (not being very successful...), as it should be headed for BST shortly.
Can you explain how one gets a black model?
Any model!
One must be careful (check here first) but some SureFire Dealers show that they have Black HA versions of certain flashlights.
Normally the model number is suffixed with a dash and the colour/finish code.
A2-HA (-HA = Hard Anodised, natural aka grey)
"-BK" (Black) can be type II anodised standard Black, but in some cases the Black anodising is type III also known as HA.
So in addition to the SureFire Dealer showing a photo of the black SureFire, it will also be labelled "E2e-BK".
One must be careful because some optional black finishes are type II rather than type III hard anodised so if in doubt check here first.
Does this help?
Al
Are models currently being made in black?
Sorry, that pesky purple dude just thinks he's black...![]()
EricMack and Al, please post your A2-BK info here:

I need more data points!![]()
SureFire: several, mostly E-series / Fenix: a few / Nitecore: one
My next ideal black SF would be an E2D + black E2C adapter and head from a 6P. This setup will allow the use of one of the new P60 drop-ins.
The only problem is that the black E2C adapter needs more interest shown on this thread.

So if you're interested you know what to do.
Mentioned in the thread below,here's a pic of a black SF L1 flanked by a pair of multi LED Milky masterpieces.
How rare are these....?

über-rare
I didn't realize that SF ever made black L1's.......that is a great looking light!!!
