| Has anyone used a Fenix Flashlight on their AR 15. If so how did you mount it. |
| I have a Fenix TK10 attached via bayonet lug mount my Stag 2L so that I can activate it with the knuckle of my index finger, with or without a VFG installed. This same light started out life mounted to the railed forearm of a BPS 12ga that modified a few years back––no troubles with handling the recoil of the shotgun, which of course is substantially more shock than you're likely to give it with an AR. I also had another Fenix TK10, for pocket EDC. It didn't respond too well to falling 20 feet from a catwalk onto concrete, but before that it was quite solid; crappy clip setup, but that's beside the point for a weapon-mounted light. Actually, even after that fall, it still works––sort of––with the occasional flicker when the switch is partially depressed (momentary contact is unreliable.) A friend of mine also uses a P3D as his main carry light, which he swears by. These are very solid lights, in my opinion, especially for the price; they may not be as indestructible as Surefires, but unless you plan on pounding in nails with your light, they should serve you well. |
