I have a nice little LED flashlight that measures .90" in diameter and I was wondering if I could just use a regular 1" light mount for this? I have a seen a few mounts that specify a .90" option but they cost almost $60 for the specific ones. I'll tape my light to my gun before I pay $60 for a single ring mount. I tried searching, but I cannot get it to search that specific size. So sorry if this is a frequent question around these parts. :D Thanks guys.

Probably. You could probably use a piece of rubber to shim it up.

I had considered that and if the one I end up ordering doesn't fit I will do that. I didn't know if most people just ROUNDED UP, haha.

the rubber would also add a level of protection of the "bulb" in your LED flashlight. I know you shouldn't use a regular flashlight on a weapon because it'll blow out the bulb when shooting but i doubt this is applicable for an LED
just buy the 1" and get some rubber
