Used SureFire 618 Fore End (870P)

Post by ShotgunSam870 »

I’ve always wanted to get a SureFire DSF fore end, but due to the cost, it made me very hesitant to make that purchase. Was on GunBroker and found this 618 SureFire Fore End, the previous generation of fore ends for SF. Paid $200 for it, so I thought why not give it a try. So far, I like it a lot, and works well as all SF products do, New or old. Not too bright, but not too weak. Only thing I don’t like is the lack of kill switch, unlike on the current generation of SF Fore Ends. Another thing to note is the weight, although not incredibly heavy, it’s easy to notice the weight when first picking up the weapon, but I don’t find deserving to call it a con. Overall, I really like it, but still unsure if I’ll keep it on long term. From what I’ve read, many prefer this generation, opposed to the current generation.

Is it an LED lamp, or is it old enough to use a filament bulb?

I believe it is the filament bulb.
