Review on ALONEFIRE Offset Flashlight Mount For Picatinny Gun Tactical LED Torch - Sports Outdoors Hunting Fishing Shooting Airsoft Guns Accessories Sights Optics Scope by Icehot Cleversley

I purchased this to mount a flashlight on my pistol for low light plate shoot. This is not a good fit for a pistol because of the awkward angle that the light ends up mounted on a pistol but it does a great job for plate shoot competitions. However, I can see this being a permanent addition to a rifle and that works nicely. The mount is very light and it is made with good quality. I have bought both the quick release and the screw version and both stay on the pistol without a problem but I suggest that once you attach the quick release version to give the hex screw a couple of turns so it will not come off during recoil.The problem I faced is with the included plastic inserts that go between the flashlight and the ring in order to make a better fit. Because they are plastic, you cannot really put much tension on them and If you do not put the screws tight the flashlight will just fly off after a few recoil shock waves (as it happened to me) and you cannot tighten the screws too much because I had one of the ring screws go through the aluminum hole. I had no problem getting a replacement via the Revain returns within 2 days. To remedy this issue, I removed the plastic inserts altogether and I used "Polyurethane Open Cell Foam" padding around the flashlight where the ring comes in contact with it. This worked great, the flashlight stayed in place and none of the screws got loose during recoil after about 150 rounds of factory 9mm ammo.
