Well, SureFire decided to give all the Yellow G2L fans a yellow aluminum bezel. Appears to be paint, looks like powder-coating.

I had heard they were doing this but had not seen one. You are right, it looks like powder coat .

It'll probably rub off with wear, similar to the Cerakoted Gladiuses.

A gold anodized Al bezel would've looked better, IMO...

It's a powder coat finish. SureFire spent some time deciding on the shade of yellow. It isn't easy to find a metal finish that matches yellow Nitrolon.

:eeew: The yellow seems to be of a darker shade. I prefer my nitrolon :thumbsup:

The difference shown in the picture makes it look quite a bit more than the naked eye did. At that close, it's very easy to be critical. With a normal glance, it's quite a good match.

I like it! Thought a black aluminum bezel on a yellow G2L would look weird. Was wondering what they would do... looks cool.

Size15, do you work for Surefire or know someone that does? Just out of interest because you seem to know information that would not be readily available to the public.

Yes that's right - Whilst I was at SS2008 PK & I were trying to figure out how long we're know each other for - a decade seemed realistic.

I've also become friends with others at SureFire. For example it was great to catch up with SureFire's Engineering Supervisor, Andrew (who gave the new product talk at PK' CPF Party)

Al, so you did make it to SS. I was under the impression you couldn't make it this year. So you blew work off eh. Good for you.
