It's attached with the front sling swivel stud.... the clip holding it is one of a pair I bought years ago at "Xmart" to attach Maglights to a flat surface (truck dash panel, etc.) The clip has two off-set mounting-screw holes, I just drilled another one centered and screwed the swivel stud back in.

Hey Quick, How about one of these for a night gun? Thanks for the idea, an easy do with the storearm forarm's (thanks to Granpa Mike!!). I had the flashlight holders sitting in the drawer, left over from my working days and finally found a use for them. I was lucky to have a long flathead 1/4-20 bolt that I could cut down and worked great. I think the storearm forearm is the way to go, but I am sure 2 flashlight holders on each forearm would be better. These will work fine with a little duct tape  :-D . My left thumb (I'm right handed) works the flashlight switch just fine. The first is a 12 gauge with a Ncstar 45 MM Red Dot mounted (thanks to Scattergunner!!) and the second is "Thunderboomer", my 19" barrelled .280 Remington (thanks to lik2hunt!!). I have put a Williams Guide series peep sight with a twilight aperture and a higher front sight from a H&R 22 Hornet on it. Half the fun of these guns is the tinkering and modifications!!!! Carry on!!....<><.... :grin:

Great work, MSP!!! I can't take advantage of the idea, though...night hunting is illegal here....but I  thought I'd share the info I found at RFC for anyone who could  benefit from it.

Thanks,

Tim

Ah ... MSP you bring back memories.  That look's like a re-chargable Mag-Lite.  I had one of those before I got a Streamlight.   I still have two Streamlights, but gave the Mag Lite to a new officer years ago.  He couldn't afford a new one.

Coincidently, the Mrs. and I were doing a little spring cleaning a short while ago and I found a box filled with old papers from the job.  Among other things, I found court run sheets from as far back as 1984.

A little off topic here, but good to reminisce though.

Thanks,
EVOC ONE

Your correct on both points EVOC ONE, it's a Mag light and it's nice to reminisce also...I still have 3 Mag lights and chargers but the rechargeable batteries are shot and I have to get new ones. I have a light for my truck, one for the house and one for the camp....<><.... :grin:

By the way EVOC ONE, see if your old enough to remember this. Before I got my Mag Lights I had a KEL light...now they go back a few years, before rechargables....<><.... :wink:
