Mossie Tactics has developed their new MT 2400 Light mount in a partnership with Battle Comp Enterprises. Battle Comp already has a distribution system, dealers, and a heavy production capacity, so this pairing up makes sense. Combine it with a product which is so straightforward that I’m wondering why I didn’t think of it first, and it looks like they’ve got a winner.
We first got our hands on a prototype a few weeks ago, but the early production model arrived today. The piece is straightforward in how it mounts. By sliding the grooved portion onto the front sight base, the MT 2400 Light Mount snugs into place. The next step is to tighten the lower screw, then the upper screw, and you are done. If you find the mount tips up or down, adjust your screws accordingly.
The application for the MT 2400 Light Mount is that of a railed extension in the 12 o’clock position. It allows a Surefire X300 or similar light to be mounted, while still retaining functionality of the mechanical and electronic sights. Pushing a light farther forward eliminates shadowing from the barrel, and that is always a good thing. The 12 o’clock mounting position with the light means the rocker switches for the little lights can be activated with either hand, and there is less of an issue when shooting around barricades or corners.
Made in the USA from 6061 aluminum, this has a MSRP of $79, which isn’t cheap, but it is a lot less money and weight than a long rail for your weapon.
