Looking to anoint my shotgun with it's very own SF forend (918FA). I'd like to use a M60F drop-in in this. Anyone know if this is possible or advised? Thanks,

Yup, no problem! I have had a M60W in mine for a year now with no issues and maybe 200 duty 00B and slugs through it with no issues.

The M60F is a good idea for a shotgun light! However, realize that the light drops off pretty quick after like 50' or so.

If it's a 'current' 918FA then it has the Millennium Lamp Module (LM90) rather than the Classic Lamp Module (L90).

The LM90 uses the Z46 aka "M3" bezel and therefore will not accept the M60W drop-in.

Example of the LM90 here

Doh! Well if you are buying new anyways get a 618FA instead and then drop a Malkoff into it.
