Well first of all forgive me if this is the wrong section. But i have a DD Omega on my rifle. And near the end of the rail the screws that secure it to the gun are partially raised. Because of this i can't mount my viking tactics flashlight mount where i would prefer to have it. At the end of the rail on the right side. The screw is just enough above the rail that the piece of the flashlight mount that goes between the picatinny rail slot hits it so i can't properly mount it. Is there anything i can do about this ? Or should I just buy another mount?

I had the same problem with other light mounts.  Most of the time I could get enough clearance by taking the washer off of the Omega screw.

Take it off of the screw that is interfering and you can screw it in deeper giving you the clearance you need.

Will it harm the rail in any way ?
