"Adaptive speaks to the core of our belief and overall philosophy to training and life in general. One must be adaptive to environments, technologies, and situations to be successful. You never know what life is going to throw at you. More important than being able to perform one task perfectly, is the ability to adapt to your surroundings. Adaptation is what allows a species to survive. It is also what allows a person to survive the battlefield, the streets they police, the courtroom, or their own living room when their night is disrupted by an armed intruder." - TRAVIS HALEY, CEO & Founder of Haley Strategic Partners, LLC

onOther then firearms one of my main hobbies is building LED lights and therefore I change my weapon lights around often and have used numerous different mounts over the years. This is hands down the best mount I've ever seen! I'm using it with a handheld light in a ring mount right now so between the 3 different sizes of rings and of course being designed for surefire scout lights I'm free to change out the light as I see fit and never need a new mount. The mount can be reconfigured for any rail position and with the plethora of lights that can be attached, when people ask for a mount recommendation there's nothing to consider other then if they need the 1913, m-lok or key mod version.
I just remembered to write this review as I came here to buy another mount (this time an m-lok version) for another carbine I've put together. Other companies stop trying; you WILL NOT beat this piece of kit!

onGot this for my Surefire mini scout light to mount on my picatinny rail. The mount is super solid and gets the light forward and totally out of the way for weapons manipulation. The mount itself is very solid and extremely well machined piece of aluminum. With so many ways to mount it in so many different positions, its hard to find any other mount that will do what this little gem does. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to free up some realestate on their handgaurd. I'm going to order the dropwing next for my Troy TRX extreme.
