Need light mount and sling for AR15

[Fly320s]

Howdy,

I'm looking for a simple light mount for my AR15. I have a Bushmaster carbine with the standard carbine-length hand guards. I'd like to get a light mount for a Surefire type light that mounts to the handguards or front sight base. I don't want a vertical foregrip or railed handguards.

What are your suggestions?

Also, I'd like a 2 point sling. I've tried the 3 point sling (CQB solutions) and the single point sling. The 3 point is the better of the two, but since I tried a 2 point sling on a SIG 556, I think that system is better.

Any ideas on 2 point slings?

Thanks.

For the light mount: You could attach a regular Weaver base in the desired location, then use a 1" Weaver ring to hold the light. Not tacticool but there's no reason why it wouldn't work.

For the two-point sling: Check out the Israeli Patrol Slings available from DSG Arms in TX.

I have one (a foreend rail) that I used to use, and removed. I do not use it, and never will use it again. I bought a 4-rail forend.

You can have it for the cost of shipping. I will post a pic for you tomorrow to see if you want it. if you do, I will ship it to you, and enclose the receipt for the shipiing. If you like it send me a MO for the shipping. if you don't like it, give it away. Fair deal?

Doc,

Great deal! Thank you very much.

I'm still looking for it! I'll keep at it, and when I locate it I'll PM you.

I found it! It isn't much, but it's free. I will post two pics.

You will see that the screw that secured the vertical grip left a mark, but that will be covered by a light. Also, there are two rough spots on bottom from the mounting screws. Those can be smoothed with a file, and the rough spots will be between the rail and the handguard (unseen). Besides, like I said, it's free.

If this looks like something you want, send me a PM with the name and address where you want it shipped.

I took out my Leatherman tool (the file) and smoothed the rough spots on the reverse of the rail. I didn't know if you owned tools to fix the rough spots or not. Then, I reblackend the areas. It looks sharper now.

Hey! I saw your pic in the Faces From THR! What make jet is that? I love jets, but am anything BUT versed in them. Hope that rail is working out well.
