Mine turned up today too. Took a fair bit of effort to get it onto the 1911 rail. Rock solid on both where the repros had play. Not sure on why there's a slight design difference for the 'surefire' trademark. Can only guess one is older than the other or maybe some different tooling used for it? Controls are nice and stiff, very hard to accidentally knock the light on which was a gripe I had with the repros.
Very happy with these. Now I just need a lightbearing holster for each - any suggestions welcome

Mine turned up today, 1 in vgc and one a bit more used, with more build up on the lens cap and glass.
top tip - if you don’t have gun cleaner, toothpaste did a pretty good job of getting the worst off in the centre of the lens. But probably need something specialised to clean it properly

Got mine, in good nick, lens needs a clean but nothing a bit of break free won't shift. Bargain of the year so far.

I use a safariland SLS holster for 226 with taclight on a duty ride belt platform.
They're very expensive but occasionally come up on ebay etc second hand. Last for years though so a good investment. I've always found "airsoft" holsters to lack in durability and feel a little less secure.
There's one here on Ebay currently.

Very helpful, thanks!
I had an old 6006 (tri colour) years and years ago. Belt setup would be good.
was considering the deadly customs one
came fault my current Blackhawk one but is without the light
