I'd expect the msrp of an m6lt head to be greater than the m6lt street price. Unfortunately they've always structured their pricing to motivate you to get the whole light instead.

You can probably flip the body+tailcap on CPF MP anyway. Plenty of guys have regular M6 heads lying around, might want to build a whole light out of them.
Personally I have something like 4 M6 heads and only one body -- if I still had a disposable income, I know I'd be looking to buy M6 bodies to build things like dedicated tower LED M6es.

I love my M6 but like others here have looked into LED options. I recently
got the Lumens Factory Seraph SST-90M series turbohead. listed as 1600 lumens.
its a little brighter than the MN21 and lasts a lot longer.
I think its a good alternative to the M6LT

Very true. SureFire has done it before. If they decide to release just the M6LT head, expect it to be priced so that it wouldn't be worth getting over a complete M6LT flashlight.

wet dream scenario would be the M6LT head with a bored out M4 body.

Don't forget about the Malkoff MD60. 500 lumens for 3+ hours is not too shabby. Who knows, maybe Gene will start cranking out 750+ lumen versions soon. I've got a M6 w/MD60 and a M6LT. If I had to pick only one I would take the M6 w/MD60. In the unlikely event the tower fails you can switch back to incan mode in a snap. Plus 900 Surefire lumens is way to bright for most circumstances.

Good point about being able to switch back.
