What about a VTAC light mount and a Streamlight Poly Tac?
Even if you don't have hand-guards that are rails you could add a rail section and use a 1" ring for the same light. |

You said you don't have the $300 for a Scout. What is your budget?

What forearm are you using op, you could check out IWC they have a lot of options for about any forearm you have and would give a better cleaner end product

Rifle is a BCM 11.5 upper SBR, currently it has the standard FSB with a two piece MI FF quad rail. Attachment point isn't an issue I just don't want a light to throw off the balance.

Arson Machine, IWC or Arisaka for modular mounts (keymod, m-lok, ect), Gearsector makes some pretty sweet picatinny mounts. For lights, best bang for the buck is the SureFire G2X tactical IMO. G2X and one of the aforementioned mounts and out the door with shipping should be under $100. Then you'd have a solid set up that should last. By the time you get done piecing together an Arisaka Scout light, you will probably be well over $150 and still be in need of a mount for it. They do have a cool factor about them though. If you have a Quad rail, look at the Inforce WML or the WMLx. It would bypass the need to get a mount and when mounted on the side, they work pretty darn well.

I just put together a light- Arisaka Keymod mount, Arisiaka body, Malkoff head, Z68 tailcap. I really like it. I'd consider just buying a part at a time to make it fit your budget.

Streamlight TLR-1. They offer a couple different models of light ouput, have an integrated picatinny mount to avoid multiple peices, and are within your budget. Great bang for the buck.

This^^^ the kit that comes with the TLR (if you buy it as a kit) has what you need to use a tape switch and mount it. |

All above mentioned options are good. Id search and search hard for a used Surefire m951 w/pressure switch. Then get on ebay and buy the LED conversion bulb for $12. I've bought used m951's before for 75-80. They're plentiful in the used marked and everyone wants newer led and ir capable lights, so they get off loaded often. They come with an arms throw lever mount too.

I wouldn't run anything less than elzetta on a serious use rifle. I have their 3 cell version with malkoff m60 LED with a tape switch in their zfh 1500 FSB mount. All of amazon for less than 140$ shipped. (msrp on their lights is a lot more but you can usually find them on amazon in the 120-140 range, i got mine at 108$ and missed one at 80$)

Inforce WML or WMLx. I have been extremely pleased with my mine.. they are really great lights. Very lightweight, integrated mount, easy to manipulate, well thought out overall.
