Adjustable Flashlight Mount?
3 April, 2013, 15:15
Hey folks. I'm pretty new to airsoft but I've also done quite a bit of research myself about this and I'm not too sure - can anyone recommend me a small flashlight to fit onto a handgun with non-standard sized rails? Ie, does a flashlight/mount exist which has the ability to widen or narrow the rail mount to accept different widths? Thanks!

Most torches are screw tightened onto rails so will fit different sides. How wide is the rail?

Re: Adjustable Flashlight Mount?
A quick measure says 28mm at widest. The actual recesses are then about 1.5mm deep. Problem I have is that the rail isn't open ended... it probably isn't actually meant as a rail to be honest but I'm just thinking I can modify something to fit it. So I need something where the rail grips are separate. Something like this, although I'll need the mount clearance to be deeper.

Oopsie, thanks buddy.
I'm intending to fit something to the 'secondary' rail on a USP match - the compensator attaches via the standard rail on the receiver, then has a pair of 'rails' in the compensator itself also, just wider than the standard ones.

Looking at them on google, youre going to have to custom something or drop the compensator.

Pretty much what I was expecting to be honest. Thanks anyway!
