Offset mount for Surefire Scout that clears PEQ-15

[patriot_man]

I was curious if there are any offset mounts for the Surefire Scout light that clears a PEQ-15's laser emitters?

My first choice was the Danger Close mount but from what I've been reading it will not clear a PEQ-15's laser unless mounted on a rail with a raised 12 o'clock (HK416).

I'm looking for non QD, I don't need the extra weight nor the ability to remove the light quickly. I just need to bring it in closer to the barrel for greater balance than my current setup which is the Scout light mounted on a Larue inline mount. Will be mounted at the 10 o clock position on a RIS II.

Thank you

I'm fairly certain there are none right now that work with a standard railed hand guard, but there is one coming out relatively soon.

I think it can be done with a tubular style though. If it can, it was Travis Haley's video when he released the Thornton and Dropwing mounts that showed it.

I thought there was a rail mount version of these mounts too?

Here's a second question. Is there a simple inline mount that is an alternative to the stock Surefire mount? Something that can be secured by allen key and utilizes the side screws on the Scout to be as low as possible? I've had the stock mounts strip or loosen while the Larue inline I've been using sets weight off too from the barrel and the QD is something I don't need and is simply extra weight and bulk.

Any word on who's bringing it out so I can keep an eye open for it? :D

I can't remember the name, but it's a precisely machined and can incorporate a DBAL, the light, a front sight, and it can be used for different combinations.

There's a thread on Lightfighter from the developer, goteron, but I forget his company name. He may be a member here as well. I'll post back.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this exactly what the Haley mounts are for?

Yes I talked to goteron in regards of the mount before but for now I'm looking for a simple setup something that offsets the scout.

That BO mount looks pretty good but that looks pretty big. I'll have to look more into it.

Joe, I'm not sure if it does. Nothing on the site mentions it although the pictures show a Scout with a IR head but no front profile view to see if it clears the visible laser or IR flood.

That's the one I was talking about. There are many more pics on Lightfighter and probably on his Facebook page.

This is also the video I was referring to. I'm not sure if this can be done with anything but the tubular handguard. Even mounting to the area between rail sections on a railed handguard, it may not clear. If it does, that would be great, but I seem to remember reading a post where someone tried it.

A Daniel Defense RIS II would probably come closer than a Lite rail, for example, due to the profile. So, it'll certainly depend on the handguard profile.

The Haley Strategic THORNTAIL clears the DBAL & PEQ. Travis verified several combinations. Here's a link to some pics: http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_2_399/221446_Thorntail_and_DBAL.html

We also make an SBR version that's an inch tenth shorter in length.

Hey guys, thank you for the mention. We are ramping up production and will be running a pre-order in the not too distant future.

We just put some more pictures up on our FB page, I will put some more up with a DBAL / Scout tomorrow sometime.

We have actually re-designed the system a little and will be updating our website in the near future with production / order details.

Please let me know if you have any specific questions, as we are not a site sponsor yet, I will keep it to a minimum here.
