Is the VTAC Offset light mount (here) good to go? I will be ordering TNVCs TX-4 head for a 6P and makes sense to buy the mount from TNVC as well, but their selection is limited.

Should i look elsewhere for a higher quality Offset mount, or do these will get the job done?

Also, who are the major players when we talk about QD light mounts (other than Larue tactical)

Thanks in advance.

It's pretty good. Not my favorite.

If you want quick attach\detach, VLTOR makes a couple nice options here...

They make a couple different varieties of the second one listed so if you shop around for it, be sure it's the diameter you need etc etc.

If you don't plan on taking it off and on a lot get the  VTAC. I've had the VTAC, Larue, and VLTOR and for the money the VTAC is a hell of a value.

Larue is the only answer then. Buy once cry once.

I know but, ordering from Larue has proven to be troublesome me living in PR you know.

Bright Flashlights sells a set of screws with large heads that can help you take the VTAC on and off easily.

The oversize screw heads that BF sells only works with the original VTAC mount. They do not work with the newer VTAC mount.
