Question: what is the best setup for adding a flashlight to my Mossy 500?
I've looked into the Surefire unit, but it's out of reach at $250. I saw a "picatinny"? adapter in my Brownell's catalog for $55 but by the time you add a decent light (~$125) and adapter (~$25), you're close to $200, and might as well spring for the Surefire setup!
Any suggestions for adding a maglight to the shotgun? I've read that the recoil may damage the bulb, but what about a halogen bulb flashlight, or a LED flashlight?
I want to be able to illuminate what's in front of my muzzle. Is there an advantage to a directed beam, or is more general illumination preferred?
