  • Brief excerpt from one of our Low Light Training weekends where we were discussing the different set ups the students showed up with. Quite a few had just mounted the flashlight where ever it fit so we had a brief discussion on some of the things to consider for choosing the lights location and the why behind it.
    For more information on your weapons set up please join us over at the FSW University and take advantage of our in-depth training tutorials at:

    Thank you. As a lefty with a shorter quad rail this is exactly what I needed to see. I set my rifle in a very similar way, played around with it on a night shoot and found the best setup until I swap out for a longer rail.

      trex lightbar would help too if your running a light with a scout mount configuration

    what if there was some sort of ring light that surrounds the barrel? that way there's no shadow, and the low profile means no vision impairment

    I'm hardly an expert on rifles, but couldn't you install more than one flashlight, to reduce the shadow? Say, one on each side, or even a third light on the bottom? Assuming they're all slim lights that don't stick out far.

      I wouldnt want more weight on the gun personally

    Total bs never place a light next or in front of a brake the concussion forces will eventually destroy any light and whats to gain. If weapon drops or is used to ram or break glass your light is now broken.

      Mounting a light that far forward is so wrong it’s funny. 😂 I also like that he’s created a fork at the end of the rifle to catch on any tree/branch/etc. great plan … NOT

    In cqb situation, the wall will cast shadow, and u cant see what u shoot if u mount flashlight the opposite side of your shooting hand

    All these combat training professionals there should be no ternary! But there is
    And it’s all a joke unless you want to act!
