Finally finished tracking down all the parts for my "tactical" 12.5" grizzly build. Side saddle was easy, ordered from the states. Hogue stock was a little harder, everyone's sold out in Canada apparently except for one supplier I finally tracked down.
And the hardest to find? The new Eotech IFL forend. (Integrated Forend Light). Spoke to every canadian retailer on Eotech's website and no one could get it. Tracked down a supplier in the states who shipped across the border. VERY happy with it. It's amazingly bright, comfortable and, while snug, fit without modification (Can't say that much for the hogue forend). 120 lumens, ambidextrous pressure pads, constant on, momentary on and strobe. Also has a nice lock-out feature so the light won't turn on or off unless you actually want it to. I wanted it because on the 12.5" grizzly, the forend is flush with the end of the barrel so any other forend light would stick out PAST the end of the barrel (like the surefire). This one is completely inset and is flush with the barrel of the gun. Love how clean it looks.

Here's my 12.5" Grizzly with the Surefire foreend:

The compactness of the EOtech looks better, but I like to have the pressure pad on the right side. Is it lighter than the Surefire? I know the Surefire is quite heavy for a foreend and messes up the balance. I was debating adding a lightweight foreend and drilling in a small rail for a Surefire X300 pistol light.
 
The eotech is ambidextrious. There's a pressure pad on both sides of it and I find it incredibly light weight! Doesn't throw off the balance at all.
As for the weight, it's under a pound. .74lbs to be exact, or 12.2 ounces.

As for the shells, they're the only ones I have left right now in my ammo cabinet. I'm waiting for my slugs and buckshot to arrive.

Just got mine from questar. Easy to operate, nice feel. 240 lumen is amazing.
Went with this ifl on. 12.5" DA grizzly. Didnt want a light sticking past the muzzle.

L3 announced that the IFL has been discontinued, they are being cleared out of dealer and distributor inventories...
