    Offset Flashlight Mounts for 3/4 tube

    Who makes an offset light mount for a 3/4" tube flashlight?

    I want to mount a Surefire E2D 200 Lumen Defender, but it seems that the only offset picatinny rail mounts I can find are for 7/8 or 1" tubes!! I called Surefire and this light is 3/4" tube diameter.

    Thanks to the newer ones Dennis posted above, fans of the smaller lights now have twice as many options as we did last year.

    The Vtac and Larue still stick the light way out there. They just offset them from the rail a bit. I like the looks of the DCC one. May have to pick that one up.

    I really like the Gear Sector mount so far. Places it close to the rail on my KAC SR-15. Very nice.

    The VTAC, DCC and Gear Sector mounts all place the light in a very similar location. They all tuck the light between the rails with small amounts of offset. The Larue is like mounting the light right on the rail and then just shifting it out. I can't find my pics of the DCC mount but...

    I have one of those Larue Mounts. It is setting in a parts bin somewhere. It just doesn't work for me. I am ordering the Danger close one I believe.
