I like the look and power of the M6 with the crenulated bezel. I can get one from Action Lights for $399 including 24 free 123As and find myself tempted.
But, I did some research on this site and it looks like the M6 has been around for a long time and maybe due for a replacement. I looked through the 2008 SF catalogue and they are still making it. But, if the M6 is dated (and in desperate need of a rechargeable option due to its power hungry ways), maybe I should see what 2009 offers, especially if they offer something with a longer handle that can take 3 more 123as for a few more minutes of run time.
My only fear is that SF is moving in a design direction I am not too keen on, making lights like the Dominator which just don't scream toughness. Bright, sure, but not tough looking. Hopefully they keep some military-looking lights in their lineup.
Anyone know why the Beast II isn't on Surefire's website as an available product?
