What I find curious about this flaring problem on the M6 is that a few years
ago I had the M6 (actually M4-P) frames installed in my M2 and it is
virtually flare free. I have to work hard to make it flare. On the other
hand my M2 with original frames and M3 are more flare prone, although from
what I hear on the LUG not as bad as the M6.
