I agree that my initial post regarding the bezels wasn't completely clear. The Bravo's modularity is a feature shared with only a small number of modern light series. If you were only interested in the AVS head, then you could buy just the body and tailcap from Oveready, and the head from somewhere else, and be done.
As you stated, the crenellated bezel gives you access to a large range of drop-ins, making the light very flexible. It also makes the light a size that most people (except the truly skinny jeans crowd) can EDC.
An M61N gives an outstanding multi-purpose beam that's good for most typical use scenarios.
I can use it with an M60 for maximum throw that'll comfortably fit into the front pocket of any jeans I wear.
If I prefer maximum flood, but not 650 lumens of it, I can use an M60F instead.
For longer run times at useful 50, 80, 120, 175 (among others) lumen outputs, I can use an M61L or LL or LLL drop-in in cool tint, neutral tint, or even Nichia 219.
In the future, if Malkoff Devices releases a new M-Series drop-in with a characteristic that interests you, it'll also work in the Bravo. If you buy it, likely for under $50, don't really like it, it can be easily sold here, and that money can go towards another one, easily purchased from here. I've personally bought, sold, and traded almost 10 different Malkoff drop-ins at CPF since joining.
