GG&G Offset Tactical Flashlight Mount
Flashlights
attached to shoulder-mounted weaponry are a necessary
requirement for urban warfare.
Until now, attempting to use a tactical flashlight in conjunction with a
vertical foregrip resulted in three scenarios: 1. Purchase an expensive
combination vertical foregrip/flashlight.
2. While trying to maintain a grip on the vertical foregrip, attempt an
uncomfortable and dangerous rotation of the grip hand to try to get the thumb
high enough to engage the rear of the flashlight typically mounted at the three
o'clock or nine o'clock position (strong left shooter).
3. Use an expensive and somewhat messy pig tail with a pressure pad glued
to the foregrip
or forearm that could hang you up at a critical time.
GG&G’s
staff has solved the problem of interfacing a vertical foregrip with a
weapon-mounted flashlight
by creating The Offset Tactical Flashlight Mount For Use With Vertical
Foregrips. It places the tactical flashlight,
offset to the right or left of the weapon’s forearm at about 5 o’clock or 7
o’clock, respectively.
This permits the operator to manipulate with the thumb,
the illuminator’s
rocker switch laser
button or rear pressure button of other tactical flashlights,
while
the support hand remains solidly on the vertical foregrip.
The Offset Tactical Flashlight Mount For Use With Vertical Foregrips comes
complete with both the
Glock style and MIL-SPEC 1913 rails.
The Glock
style rail can be easily removed and a short section of MIL-STD-1913 rail
installed for attaching a Surefire or other small flashlight by means of a
standard ring.
The mounting rails are fully interchangeable. It
is a lightweight accessory—only 2.7 ounces.
The
Offset Tactical Flashlight Mount For Use With Vertical Foregrips can be mounted
on the GG&G UFIR, or
any of the GG&G Tactical Modular Forearms, or any other integrated
rail system. This ambidextrous mount is attached by means of a squeeze rail.
Manufactured from aircraft grade 6061 billet
aluminum alloy, it has been Type
III hard-coat anodized per mil-spec
in a matte black combat finish.
