InterestedBystander Posted June 30, 2015 at 02:35 AM Posted June 30, 2015 at 02:35 AM Wondering what's the best method for an AR light mount if there is no rail system - just the plain old round handguards? Looked around the web and saw some barrel clamp mounts and one that attached to bayonet lug. Wasn't sure how good they were or if there were other options.
tkroenlein Posted June 30, 2015 at 02:59 AM Posted June 30, 2015 at 02:59 AM If it has a standard A2 front sight then there are bolt on rail sections that mount on the barrel. Here is one example. http://www.leapers.com/prod_detail.php?mitem=mount&level1=Model_4,_Model_15&level2=Other&itemno=MNT-BR101TR-A&status=&mtrack=1m5

Capt_Destro Posted June 30, 2015 at 05:14 AM Posted June 30, 2015 at 05:14 AM This option is much nicer than the Leapers suggestion. Of course you need a FSB.http://www.amazon.com/Elzetta-ZFH1500B-Tactical-Flashlight-Holder/dp/B004LMEBC6 Also adding rails to the rounded handguards isn't too hard either.
GTX63 Posted June 30, 2015 at 10:18 AM Posted June 30, 2015 at 10:18 AM Grey duct tape on a black gun.

Mustang31 Posted June 30, 2015 at 12:15 PM Posted June 30, 2015 at 12:15 PM Midwest Industries makes a nice and sleek rail system that mounts to an A2 front sight post; http://www.aurorasc.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=5515 Impact Weapons Components have a few options too; http://www.impactweaponscomponents.com/product/tmc-1-light-mount-n-slot/
Superr.stu Posted July 1, 2015 at 12:51 PM Posted July 1, 2015 at 12:51 PM With fsb, mossie midnight mount. Or mount-n-slot and modify handguard as needed.
