the other night about 10:30, one of my hounds starting raising holy heck back near the rear fence line of our property. the adjoining property owner has been doing some work, and i went to see what was up. i had my g30 and a hand held spot-lite. i realized about half-way to rear fence, that this wasn't ideal, as the spot lite is kinda of heavy/bulky, and requires a dedicated hand. it turned out to be nothing, but it really made me start to think about a mounted weapon light for my ar. i have a mid-length 16" stainless upper from RRA that i installed on a double star lower i put together. i have an eotech 512 mounted on the flat-top with a rra dominator mount/buis. i am not super keen on having a full rail installed (don't really have the $$), but wondered if there was some other means to mounting a light/pressure switch. any recommendation would be great. also who/what model lights are you guys using? -matt |
that looks more like Goose tape and that shit will stick to nothing but itself. |

I'm running a Surefire 951 on my mid length. If $ is an issue, it's not as big of an issue as you may think for the mount.... You can pick up a picatinny rail for about $10 almost anywhere that will mount onto your mid length handguards, or utilize some of the other options noted. That surefire's gonna run you about 3 C-notes or more though (one currently in the EE for an absolute steal!). That ball's in your court though. What's the price tag on your comfort/security level  That's a personal choice only you can make. |
