I could not find a thread on this, so can someone tell me or point me to some information regarding changing the pushbutton tail cap on a Sunwayman M10R? Thanks.

Same as the v10r i guess. Since it's no tailcap.There should be a retaining ring on top of the switch. See if you can grab it with someting. (i used a mini letherman sqirt).

It looks like it has two holes in the ring on opposite sides. I assume it spins counter-clockwise to remove. Is it made of metal - can't quite tell.

The retaining ring is definitely made of metal and the threads are regular i.e. turn CCW to remove. The best tool is a pair of tweezers but you can also make one using a large paper clip bent to an 'U' shape.
