I think this one from KAC is pretty strong:

Would that fit on something like this?It looks like it would be too long.

The KAC mount is strong, but the tensioning tab can be kindy weak. I have heard of them breaking, although I have not seen one my self. I also dont think it will mount to that adapter. It needs two rails to properly mount.
The Fobus polymer light mounts seem to be holding up very well. [img]http://64.239.80.125/assets/images/FB-FAS3.jpg[/img] |

I don't really care for the Fobus holders.I had one for my Scorpion but found it a bit too bulky.

I'm using Millet 1" low-mount scope rings ($20 for 2 from Academy) with my G2 - strong enough so far and low profile - takes up less space than a sling mount adapter on the rail.
Too much adjustment really for a flashlight - makes it a pain to reinstall light in line with bore. Only downside I've notice so far is if you like the G2 way in front of the mount, the Millet will tend to angle the light upwards slightly so that at about 7yds the area you are illuminating is actually slightly above where your sights are. |

What is that "tab" or "button" in front of the hex head on that FOBUS mount?

So once the unit is mounted, you hit the button and out comes the light or off comes the unit?

Off comes the unit. If you position the unit right on the flashlight, it will feel (and act) like the G2Z Combat light. Very nice if you like using the 'Cigar' hold.

The Fubar / First Samco light mount is crap compared to the WFM. No comparison and they are about the same price.

I agree with Cleophis that the WFM mount is built like a tank..but it's big and bulky like a tank as well. I'm getting the FOBUS from Bightflashlites for my G2. I went with it because it's compact and for what I will be using it for..ideal. If I was going to the sand box I would probably go with the WFM.
Just my .02¢ worth from a newbie in the world of bells and whistles for your AR. |

What kind of mount is that? It would put the flashlight right where I have always wanted it. Who makes that thing and is it ready to sell? IPSC_GUY |

IPSC Guy,
Glad you like the mount. We make it but it is not a catalog item yet. We are currently incorporating some user feedback and hope to have a production version in a couple of months. southern [url]www.danieldefense.com[/url] |

Well I received my GG&G rail and FOBUS mount today from Brightflashlites. How did you get it through customs so fast? [:D]
Took me longer to put the tools away then it did to mount the rail and light. Actually it took me longer to get the ^@#%#@ handguard off. The FOBUS looks like it would take some abuse but a direct blow to the light would probably snap the mount off the rail. I think this would happen to any mount designed for the picatinny rail due to the lips of the mount being thin enough to go between the rail and handguard. I'll let you know how it stands up to a bunch of team members in March! Can't wait to try it out. Thanks Brightflashlites. Another vote for a great company to deal with! |

What kind of rail covers do you have on the DD handguard? Yet another thing I haven't seen, only heard Wes talk of a "ladder" cover...

Duffy,
Those indeed are ladder panels. They are among my favorites. Of course, you will also see KAC panels on my rifle also. southern |
