gamboolman Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 New member to the Forum and just got a M-1014. I'm wanting to attach a Weapon Light. I have used Search Function - but not having much Joy on finding Options for mounting Weapon Light? Would appreciate any advice and help from yawl. Thanks, gamboolman....

Roufus Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 I'm brand new to shotguns and my m4 has only seen a box of slugs so far, Purchased it for HD so, like you a light will be helpful but I think a green laser would make for faster off shoulder target acquisition. Plus the ability to fire without a guided tour of where your face is. LOL I bought the solid stock model because it fit me better than the skeleton. Let me know how you make out and I will do likewise. Glock 39, 26 and 44 Roufus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMilitaryPolice Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 my favorite mounting option for a light on my M4 is too just use my M1! lol just never could find an option that preformed like i wanted for the M4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorlami Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Impact Weapons Components - They make one that attaches to the barrel band in place of the sling loop. There is also a built in QD socket on it. I’ve got one on mine and love it! You can find them here IWC M4 light mount. There is also a QD socket adaptor that goes on the collapsible stock. It can be found on the same page. Freedom Fighter Tactical also sells IWC stuff, but be warned - you will be tempted to buy more stuff for your M4 if you go there ?. Your wallet may cry afterwards. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamboolman Posted May 29, 2021 Author Share Posted May 29, 2021 (edited) Gorlami, Thanks for the advice. I'm off to Impact Weapons and Freedom Fighter to look see. Much appreciated. gamboolman..... ETA - just ordered the Mount as shown below from Impact Weapons Thanks ! Edited May 29, 2021 by gamboolman add update 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filthy phil Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 (edited) I like the idea (expen$ive option) of the longer Briley handguard and a scout light. Bringing the light closer to the end and therefore reducing shadowing. While you're there pick up their 7rd carbon fiber tube. Yes, this will get spendy.. after all we ain't running mossturds.

gamboolman Posted May 29, 2021 Author Share Posted May 29, 2021 Thank you Filthy & Alpha The Briley looks good also. Will see how the Impact Light Attachment device works.

Redwingsfansfc Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 I went the IWC route (with offset picatinny) and think its solid. Fits nicely to the gun. I also decided to try out the inforce wml https://www.impactweaponscomponents.com/product/inforce-wml-weapon-light-400-lumens-white-light-gen-2/ vice the other lights. all in all, for me, pretty good setup for the price.

M2_shootr Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 The IWC light mount is AWESOME I highly recommend it. I tried one of the Briley cheese graters and hated it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJHUB Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I just installed the IWC. It doesn't say anything in directions that I saw, but totally remove snap ring, Correct?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unobtanium Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Correct. And the sling attachment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJHUB Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Yeah. LOL Had a pretty cool one with a loop from Mesa. But i really like the IWC. I did place the remote switch from the Streamlight HX L on with double sticky. It's in a nice position. Just see how it holds up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roufus Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Sorry for the Newbe questions. So if I get iwc it has two mounting rails but I loose the sling my? Can a light and green laser both be accommodated? What do you do for a sling mount? tx Roufus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolution Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 The IWC mount has QD cups on both sides for QD sling swivels for either a righty or leftie shooter. Take a look at the above pictures of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJHUB Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 It has scout mounts on both sides too, along with the QD's. I bought the one with a piece of pic rail. You could easily put a pic rail on both sides. Really made nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
