Tiniest weapons light?

[BigJ]

I'm looking for a weapons light to mount on about 1" of weaver rail, with no room behind it; basically there's a wall of material back there were the rail ends. In other words, from the rear tip of the light to the front of the rail needs to be 1" or less and the turn on switch would be best on the side. I have plenty of room up front, so it can protrude well beyond the 1" rail if needed.

Suggestions?

I used an apl mounted on a glock recently. I have a viridan c5l and i am pretty sure they are the same size. If you have one at your local gun store ask to try it out.

Crimson Trace Lightguard is quite small if they have it for your specific firearm make/model.

I don't have any experience with this particular light, but I see it go for $39 or so every so often on Woot and it looks smaller than a TLR-1:

TLR-3

the smallest light i have found is the Crimson Trace CMR-202

Crimson Trace light guard and Crimson Trace rail master are probably the 2 smallest handgun lights.
