Does anybody know if the mounts for these lights are interchangeable?  I have found the dual thumbscrew model on ebay for much cheaper, but I would really like to have the throw lever mount, but not if it's not interchangeable.  I got burned when I bought my OTAL thinking I would be able to switch it out for the throw lever only to find it was build into the housing.  Thank in advance!

M961XM07  (Dual Thumb screw)
M962XM07 (Swan throw lever)

Yes, they are.  It's just 2 screws underneath the mounts.   I do the same thing.....I buy the 961 'cuz they're a little cheaper then remove the thumbscrew mount and get a Larue SF mount  (LT 170).      The ARMS mount is ok, but the Larue locks on tight and is adjustable for tightness.  Get the Larue you won't be disappointed.

I have the dual thumbscrew M951 and I'm going to get the LaRue replacement mount.  I need to see what all this talk is about LaRue...

Awesome, thanks for the info and the quick response.  I was happy to hear that because I have found a few of the thumb screw model's on ebay, but never the throw lever model, so I was really hoping the mounts were interchangeable.  Again, thanks for the info.

Has anybody ever seen Surefire knock off floating around the web?  Just curious.  There seems to be every other kind of knock off of scopes, lasers, etc.  I just scored a SureFire M961XM07, brand new in the box for $190 shipped off ebay, but I almost feel as if it's too good to be true.

nah, you got a good deal and that's pretty much it.  I bought a couple here on the EE brand new in the box and still sealed for only $220 shipped for each.   There's always guys selling them here so you just gotta keep your eyes open for them.   You got a good score so Congrats!

Got the light yesterday, amazing light, it was all good.  I couldn't believe the beef that was behind this light, it was just solid.  I have never really dealt with Surefire, but was amazed at how sturdy and well built that light was.  Thanks to all for your suggestions.
