For those of you who want a flashlight mount that is tough as nails, lightweight and mounts directly to your rail without the use of a picatinny rail, then you may want to look at the mount offered from MHA Custom.
Dubbed the Brightshot, this light mount is designed to accommodate the majority of light designs on the market that have an outside diameter of .825” or 1”. The mount is specific to your rail and is available for most of the popular rails on the market with more model support becoming available this year.
The unique mounting design prevents the attachment screws from backing out enough for the mount to accidentally detach from the forearm even if the screws become loose.

Models available to fit the following free float tube forends:
MHA custom sent us a mount for testing and evaluation on the Geissele Mk2 rail. The mount took about 5-minutes to install and was very solid, providing 360-degree contact on the light body. Our testing revealed the mount was very sturdy, lightweight and accommodated a multitude of tactical lights we threw at it.
MSRP is $75 bucks and you can get more info at MHA Custom.

Up until about a year ago, I exclusively used a Derlin action block much like the one seen here. Derlin blocks are useful but introduce other issues such as setup time, lining up pins, torque flex, etc. I often found the need to apply more than mil-spec torque to the barrel nut when installing a barrel and could visually see the upper flexing. It made be cringe but I didn’t know of any other option.
