Thank you sir. Aside from a light for my duty belt, I'm looking for a new weapon light for my carbine. I have an upgraded 6p with malkoff drop in in a larue mount that works pretty well. I've also been using tlr1s's mounted on the 12 oclock rail, but after having the 4th one in a year shit the bed last week, its time for a new solution. I like the setup in the larue mount ok, but it doesn't work very well when I shoot from my support shoulder because its almost impossible to activate the light. I like the tlr1s because it was ambidextrous, but they just aren't tough enough. With all of the folks making "offset" mounts, you'd think someone would make a low profile "in-set" mount that rides right between the rails. for me something at 1:30 would be awesome! any ideas? I might just end up with an x300....

Could possibly make a frankenlight with this mount. Just a suggestion, not sure what your allowed to do as a cop. Only mount I've ran into that is offset,,,:)

yeah I was looking at that one last night. seems like a good start, but I don't know what to mount on it. I'm not very impressed with surefires stuff in relation to "bang for the buck". I wonder if I could mount another brand of light onto that? Seems like quark, fenix, jetbeam, olight, etc have some lights that leave surefire in the dust. I like the fenix pd31 and even the pd20. If I could get something that size mounted down in between rails that would be awesome. Reason being is this light is going on an SBR (11.5" barrel and 10" rail) and I don't want the head of the light out in front of the muzzle, so it will need to be recessed down into the rail, so I can just hold over the light when shooting support shoulder. I think I need to rig something so it mounts to the slots in the gap between the rails rather that to the actual rails themselves. also, I don't like the curly tape switches that they sell for the fenix lights.


eta I like the jetbeam bc20 as well.

Horton you're a machinist. Can this be done??


If there really is a need for an "in between" mount, please share a photo, or illustration to help me see your need. I'll see what I can do.

It seems that nearly every variation has been covered in the 1" ring mount category.

If you ran my standard 1" Moddoolar light, you should be able to get anywhere on or near the rails that you like.

If activation is the only concern, I recommend the Surefire XM07 which fits my lights.

Also, if you ran my lights on your belt and on your carbine, you have interchangeability of all parts, and more choices are coming soon.

The X300, either stock, or upgraded is a great light too.That mount that truk linked to is clever.

Just received my cold steel shovel. Pretty darn nice for $20. I got the cover too, better than I expected. Got it from cutlery shoppe, if you go from nutnfancy's page to there you get free priority shipping.
 
Hi all. Caught up on the forums. What's new in da club? Snow? Shiza. Its raining here right now for some reason. Kind of random after a pretty nice sunny weekend. This is new knife weather for sure but I am getting a new leather sectional today to bone on with the lady. Can't wait.
 
I stayed in the knife box all day yesterday..............nothing came out the way i wanted..............ground and burnt fingers all day............

I think i should start over at square one...........its aggregating

I mean really? They make every kind of knife known. Can't they just leave the shovel alone? I would like to see two guys go at it with these though. Or a hammer fight.

J you should put out a line of office supplies that can be used as weapons. Chisel ground rulers and pens with dna samplers. I bet there is a big market for disgruntled employees.
 
The weather's weird here this spring. Never before have I experienced such a strident sun along with cold, almost freezing air, not even in the Czech mountains, they're not high enough for this kind of climate. Now I can get a sunburn and a cold togehter right here in the city. Really uncommon.
 
Modoo maybe this will help convey my idea. This is the way one of my rifles is set up:

This is the other:

This is not the light I would use, but this will give you an idea of how I want to mount the light.

It would have to attach through these holes.
