If you can picture M91 - not the "T", the older circa 2010 M91 that was all flood and zero throw - I had one, did not like it and M91T, which has a hot hotspot and little to no spill - this M61 v2.0 is a marriage between the two. It's much floodier than M61T, M61HOT and M91T but not so floody as the old M91, kind of in between and of course half as bright.
I really like the way you describe the dropins. it helps enough to understand the beam without even seeing a beamshot.
Are the new m91 also just flood?
