As far as it can be determined, a braced pistol is measured with the brace extended unless it has a folding mechanism, in which case, it's measured folded. Unless you're Black Aces Tactical, lol.

The moral of the story is, get rid of the fucking folder if you want a vert grip on your pistol lower.
Finally paid for the anodize on my lower. Just need to ship the damn thing out now.

Ask for a vli (very little illumination) and I get no illumination. Go figure. The weight savings are tremendous.

So I'm trying to sell some stupid shit to buy my first evar e0tech. I'm trying to figure out if the su 231 marked eotech is also supposed to have to law/mil markings too? I don't want to get ripped off with some cerakoted one.

Depends on manufacture date. I now have 4 231's spanning as early as '07 to as late as '14, not all have markings. Later ones, after mid 2011 moved the s/n markings from the SU-231/PEQ area to a sticker underneath and no longer have SU-231/PEQ on the side. Most 553's after 2011/early 2012 do not have mil/SU-231 markings.

Also something that differs is the "For Law Enforcement use only" on the side of the hood. Generally speaking mil issued optics will not have the engraving, but will have a yellow laser warning sticker. Another difference is the Eotech brand logo on the side of the battery hood.

Anyways, way more differences than I think people realize.

I can post pictures tonight to highlight the differences. Now knowing what I know I wish i was a tad more picky in the selection process, but these do not come up for sale often so you kind of have to jump when you see one.

OOS already. Prepare to bend over in the EE!

ETA: joking. I'm all for market economics. Do hope a few people got in on the deal.

Arms Unlimited will get more. Colt apparently does things in batches. It just took a really long time.

Kinda funny; all a matter of perspective. I'm thinking, "Fuck, this sucks... I could only afford one and I needed at least two more." Others are thinking, "Fuck, this sucks... they sold out!"

After waiting like two years, they just had to pop up at a time I couldn't afford to buy more :\.

I really needed one for the Block 1, one as a spare/replacement for the Block II and another for the Block II build I'm slowly working on. Oh, well. Maybe they'll get more.
