    Mossie FSB light mount

    Searched and didn't see this posted yet.
    Mossie teamed up with BattleComp to make this new light mount for your AR platform. It mounts to the FSB at the 12'oclock position.
    More here....http://www.m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=95251

    Rainier Arms already has them in stock. Worth checking out for some.
    Congrats to Buck Mossie for a great product!

    Oh and I have no affiliation with any of these companies. Just spreading the word of a new and cool product.

      looks pretty worthless as shown. Not very ergonomic, and you'd need a tape switch to make real use of it. If you already have the rail there is no need for it at all. It just seems more logical to use the models that mount on the side of the FSB

        Uh, Not really. It's actually pretty ergonomic, and (if I remember correctly) was primarily created for those PD's that don't allow modifications to duty weapons.

        This also allows the gun to fit in most/all squad car gun racks.

            On a related tangent, positioning the light over the muzzle like that causes the bezel and lense to be covered by carbon build up. How do you clean the lense so its totally clear. I've go it to a point but there is still some black stuff on it.

              Per my surefire contact, and my trying, pencil eraser. Worked great after a night class with my x300 on my g19.

              Still trying to figure out the way to use this as is. You would need the XT07 tape switch to use it and if you just ran the light on before bailing out of your cruiser it defeats any tactic I can think of.

              Cops use the light target, move technique right? If you tried that with this setup it seems like you would shoot your hand off

              Also if for use at PD's that don't allow modification of rifles, how is this not a modification?

              I will have to find them at shot and ask.

                Let me tell you from personal experience you can clean it but its a PITA.

                I have a 10.5" MG that the light is at 3oclock and it gets a ton of carbon on it. This would be worse at 12.

                    I meant to say permanent modifications to duty weapons ie: extended rails over lo-pro gas blocks, etc.

                    You definitely don't need a tape switch, as jrau13 clearly demonstrates.
                    This requires no permanent mods to the host weapon.

                        What it best allows, is the absence of barrel shadow when working barricades and corners. You don't need a tape switch if you grab a lot of rifle in your stance. I am affiliated with battle comp.

                          I can see how mounting a light up front with a DD FSP rail can be handled comfortably. But with the hot barrel and FSB exposed on a typical carbine, I think this mount will cause some burnt hands.
                          While we're here arguing about the latest high tech running shoes, there's some Kenyan out there running barefoot. Guess who's gonna win the marathon?

                            I designed the Mossie Midnight Mount to allow you to attach a weapon light to the 12 o'clock position on an AR with no modification to the host weapon due to the requirements of my current employer. It will mount an x200 / x300 / TLR-1 / M3 / Procyon with the same universal adapter that is used for a Glock pistol.

                            It may not work for everyone, in every situation, but it does meet the needs of the armed professionals that I am honored to work with on a daily basis.

                            I hate tape switches, but if you really MUST have one, get the Pict version (MT2400FSB-P), It will run a TLR-1 with the tape switch...

                              Interesting. Very innovative product. How does it compare in durability to similar products such as the Elzetta FSB mount or the IWC Mount-N-Slot?
