How do I go about mounting a surefire handheld vampire light to an ops core rail?

Thanks for any insight.

With the supplied piece of Picatinny rail that comes with the helmet.

Hmm I’ll have to look through the box again, I don’t remember seeing that.

Thanks! The first option looks appealing. Might have to snag one of those. The price is certainly right.

I had this same question a few months ago and posted here. The consensus was that the easiest and also cheapest way was to get a vtac light mount and just put it on the pic rail section on the arc rail. It's worked out great for me. You do have to make sure you put your helmet on right otherwise the light will be pointing slightly off from what you're actually looking at.

I used a vtac clamp and bolted it to a unity knuckle originally but now I have the S&S body/mount.

Can someone tell me the body diameter of a v1 vampire? Still waiting on mine in the mail.

Snagged one of these because it seemed like a good deal.

I mounted mine using the Echo Arm Mlok base system with Unity tactical mlok lo pro mount and fusion ring. It is a solid platform but I can move it around and or remove for handheld use or to put on another helmet etc.
