Sam,
The Halo's marked M690 were to marked N690. I apparently typed the wrong letter as well when responding to the email listed on the forum by rhazen.
M690 is a welding wire and not a blade steel.
On a side note I will be the first to admit that I am not perfect, typographical errors are bound to happen every once in a while.
Thank You for helping to bring this to our attention, I have been assured that our laser engraver has been changed to avoid any further "typos" with the steel markings.
Stay safe,
Mark Stilts

And one thing I for sure, they do not give one shit about screwing up either. They seem to have an almost Heckler & Koch level of disdain for their customers.
Its an odd situation. Over the years I have got the impression that they are sick of the criticism. About quality, ethics, mistakes, production. You name it they are pretty much sick of defending themselves. Thats not to say that 90% of all the gripes with the company arent valid, they are. But Tony doesnt seem to want to have to answer to anyone for anything. On one hand I admire that the man apologizes for nothing. He does what he wants with little regard for anyone other than himself. But that unfortunately is also the reason many despise him. Believe it or not, M/T as a company has done a lot in recent years to improve their public image. But that doesnt stop Tony from occasionally making a PR nightmare for his company.
Can't say anything about MT, but HK's CS is top notch now and has been for awhile. The customer disdain rumors are inflated and kept alive by the haters.And one thing I for sure, they do not give one shit about screwing up either.

Yeah, the HK hates you meme has some legs. It took them a while but they do seem to have begrudgingly surrendered to having to deal with the civilian market. I love the VP9, but I went with the Walther PPQ Navy for the threaded barrel.Can't say anything about MT, but HK's CS is top notch now and has been for awhile.

I just bought a threaded barrel for my P30. When they release a VP9c, I will get one.Yeah, the HK hates you meme has some legs.
