Quoted: My god the surefire stuff is soooo expensive. I don't want to pay over $300 just for a damn flashlight. I like the ones built into surefires own hanguard but they are very expensive. Anyone have good ideas for some cheaper setups?
On second thought maybe it would be more cost effective to just buy the gun without the quad rail handguard and save up for the surefire M500AB millenium. Has anyone had experience with the M500AB?

Here's the cheapest light/mount I have seen:
(1) D Cell maglight
(2) 6 inch piece of PVC with inside diameter same as outside diameter of Maglight, cut this in half length wise - give the other half to your cheap buddy - use the Dremel to cut slots for the hose clamps to pass through
(3) 4 hose clamps - 2 go around the maglight and PVC and 2 around the PVC and handguard
It all ends up looking like a M203 when mounted, is a bit heavy, but you aren't a girly man are you?
Edit to add: D cells are cheaper than the Surefire batteries too!
