[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1645660, member: 1132"] The TLR-1's are a great deal. The Surefire X300's are better, but considerably more expensive. Sign up for Tactical Daily Deals and you might be able to score a TLR-1 for less than $90 delivered. [url]http://tacticaldailydeals.com/[/url] As for mounting, it's best to get the light as high up on the gun as possible. 12:00 is best (usually forward of the front sight base on an AR), with 11:00 & 1:00 next best. A setup like Impact Weapons Components light mounts work very well, especially with Magpul MOE handguards. They make mounts for dedicated Surefire weaponlights like the 300 & 600, as well as for 1" diameter lights. Midwest Industries also makes a front sight base mount with rails. Here are some of my setups: IWC's Surefire 600 mount for the MOE handguard [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i151.photobucket.com_albums_s157_Glocktogo_DSC_0014.jpg[/IMG] FSB mount (similar to Midwest Industries) with a 600 attached. Any rail mounted light will work on this one. [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i151.photobucket.com_albums_s157_Glocktogo_CIMG4199.jpg[/IMG] Safariland RLS light & mount attached to a picatinny top rail. [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i151.photobucket.com_albums_s157_Glocktogo_DSC_1042.jpg[/IMG] A simple weaver rail section attached to a Mossberg forend. Light is a Surefire X300. [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i151.photobucket.com_albums_s157_Glocktogo_DSC_0002.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
