BLAM4 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 For anyone that needs more information on the BLAM4 or if you want to / need to buy direct from us at Corps Technology Group, please contact us directly. [email protected] We have the email / technical issues solved. I welcome any and all design related comments. Our first production version meets the requirements of the two units that requested it, however, we realize this exact design won't fit everyone's application. We're working on another version, however, I'm open to suggestions before we make the next round of prototypes. Vr - VooDoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLAM4 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I've got the M1 BLAM complete and it's being tested with LAPD now. If there are a few forum members that would like to try it, let me know. -Voodoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLAM4 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Recent BLAM4 feedback: Benelli M4 Owner in Alaska emailed with an issue. Owner has an M4 with the camo pattern. Seems the duracoat camo pattern is causing issues with mounting the BLAM4 on his shotgun since the duracoat is a few thousandths thicker than the black anodized finish on the more common black M4. We've developed a few suggested procedures for him to try and once we figure out the best solution we'll publish for all forum readers to see. -VooDoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tessellated Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I mounted a Surefire x300 on my M4 with this mount and could hardly be more pleased. The mount is very sturdy, lightweight, and offers perfect placement for finger actuation of the light's controls. This is exactly what I wanted in a mount.

StrangerDanger Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 My only issue with the BLAM is the way the unit shifts due to only having a single screw through it. The two two black plastic bumps on the MOE rail aren't large enough to limit the unit from rotating. You can't tighten the screw enough without risking stripping the screw or cracking the plastic MOE rail segment. I'm thinking of filling the two black plastic index 'plugs' with epoxy to try to limit movement. The unit itself will rock back and forth maybe 5 - 10 degrees. It's enough to annoy you though. I need a rail segment with at least one more picatinny rail 'bump.' There currently isn't enough room to mount my light and sling to the short supplied section.

tessellated Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 StrangerDanger - I too noticed the shifting rail. I tightened down the screw enough to prevent further movement, but I was very aware of the possibility of stripping the screw. If I notice any movement in the future, i will JB Weld the plastic index points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock7 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Any update on this? Has the "movement" issue been addressed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 Not to my knowledge. I went back to using the M80 instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crofton Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Any update on this? Has the "movement" issue been addressed? I used superglue (over a year ago) to solve the movement issue and have been using the weapon hard. Still good-to-go. If it ever does start to move, I will try JB-Weld.

quickbiscuit Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I received my BLAM4 today and just finished the install. I ordered directly from Corps Technology Group on Thursday night and had it in the mail today. I am very pleased with the install. I was worried about movement because of the other complaints, but I have zero movement or play with the mount installed on my desert camo M4. I did not have to use any super glue to keep the mount from moving. I installed with the rail on the right. At first I had the rail pointed back, and there was a very small amount of movement in this position. I then flipped the mount so that the rail was forward, and it fit very snug this way (just a slight difference in machining). This works better anyway as it gets my light closer to the muzzle. I am extremely pleased with this simple solution for mounting a light on my M4. The light (currently a Surefire Scout 600c) sits a little farther away from the mag tube/barrel than I would like, but I think it's necessary to make the mount this way for people who want to mount it with the rail pointed back toward the butt of the gun. Also with the Scout light mounted in the forward position, I still have enough slack in my pressure switch to stick it on the left side of the forearm for activation with my thumb. A+ for my application! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) I finally came up with a use for the BLAM4 with the help of Daniel. Basically, I'm going to turn it into a dedicated forward QD sling mount. I'm going to remove the MOE rail, drill out the inner hole to 1/2", mount a low profile QD mount to it. Notch the mount for the locator tabs by just drilling a small indent at 12 and 6 o'clock. Then, I'll cut the excess off of the mount. I'll cut off the crappy sling mount on the opposite side and file the edges all down. I'll then hit the areas with some cold blue. Button all the fasteners up with some blue locktite. Ill angle the mount so it covers the rear barrel hanger. Edited February 11, 2013 by StrangerDanger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tack425 Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I have the BLAM mounted on my M4 using Surefire rail. The BLAM is mounted at the 6o'clock position and I am using a Surefire X300 Ultra. nice set up and I was able to solve the rattle with some electrical tape placed on the ring before the install, just enough to take up the tiny bit of space there was. This made for a slightly more difficult install, but works well for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
