I just got one this week since it's the only G24 I could find in stock. The carriage that the dovetail clicks into has a polymer body and buttons, but the dovetail clipped in tight. In use it felt just like my other G24 mounts.

It is basically a G24 with the G69 plastic non magnetic dovetail. It is a good buy.

I saw the announcement on Reddit about three hours after Gooningear posted it and received mine a few days later. It’s solid, everything works like it should, nothing feels even remotely janky. For the going rate of the G24 but shaving a few ounces, I give the thumbs up.

Well, I think you’re maybe taking the marketing term “Lite” the way others have used it. It’s not that it’s a discounted version of a product that has some features removed, it’s simply meant to be lighter. I was in the market for a G24 at the time, and nobody had them in stock, and the prices I was seeing were $30-70 higher than what I paid. OwnTheNight has tan G24’s in stock right now for $500.90, but I’d gladly pay the two dollars extra all over again to shave an ounce or so.
Everything to do with night vision is horrendously expensive, I just can’t see complaining about something being essentially the same price for being lighter. It’s a net positive in my book. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: yeah I assumed lite was marketing speak not a physical attribute. Quote HistoryQuoted: yeah I assumed lite was marketing speak not a physical attribute. Lol, really, they should have just called it the G24 "Lightweight" or something, but what do I know?  Quoted: "Putting the cox in wilcox since 2023"

For what it's worth, to the best of my recollection, Wilcox doesn't use the term "Lite" to describe these. The G24L has been around for a while, which Goonin' Gear does acknowledge, and Wilcox has shopped it around for interest off and on (it was introduced around the same time as the G69), and it's usually been described either as Light Weight or simply "LT" to denote that it's a lighter version of the G24. ~Augee |
