I just picked up a Colt LE6920 at Wal-Mart and since I am not too familiar with ARs in general I needed some help.
I am wanting to put a light up front and since there is plenty of room in front of the sight could I get a short rail that fits up there? Is there a specific name for rails that go in front of the sight? |
| How about this from Elzetta. It mounts to the FSB. I keep meaning to pick one up. |
IWC designed the new TMC (Top Mount Cantilevered) 1" Light MOUNT-N-SLOT's with AMBI mounting capability. Congrats on your new Colt LE6920, unfortunately my Wal-Mart don't have any Colt only Sig M400. With just using your original M4 handguard you could mount a light on the top vent holes and could mount your light either at the left or right side of the front sight, take a look at Impact Weapons Components (IWC) mount either directly mounting a light or they also have a short rail mount. http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/TMC-1-LIGHT-MOUNT-N-SLOT-p/iwc-ltmc100f0.htm http://www.impactweaponscomponents.com/product/tmc-1913-picatinny-light-mount-n-slot/ You could also mount a small rail on the sides of the front sight and then mount your light there. http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/Midwest-Industries-MCTAR-01-p/mctar-01g2.htm The next better way to mount a light without the expense of a rail system is by getting a Magpul MOE handguards, you could mount small rails as you need on it either Magpul modular rails or from IWC. |
