have you run many lights off FSBs on shoot-hot guns?

I have been thinking about the same type of gun. A Colt Commando with an A1/A2 carrying handle would be great. I would go with a Vortex or AAC flash hider. MOE or CTR stock. M4 Side sling mount, Noveske QD plate in the rear and BFG padded sling. I would like a tritium front sight and MOE handguards and a small MOE rail for the option of mounting a light. I wish BCM would sell complete A1 or A2 uppers. A Nodak A1 upper w/o forward assist would be my second choice. There is a build in the retro section right now that fits the bill well.
Montrala,
That would definitely be my choice for door-kicking duty! Except the VFG. BOO!
funny.. im currently on the same path. I would like to go with:
*BCM 11.5 w/ DD RISII Mk18
- Here is my tradeoff, I too would prefer a FSB, but completely hypothetically speaking, I think its better to have a solid mounted rail than plastic-anything. Who knows, I mean in a chaotic post apocalyptic environment there seem to be randomly burning ground fires everywhere. I would hate for my plastic handguards to get so badly damaged that it would render them useless...I digress. ;)
*DD Fixed BUIS - I will weld those things on.
*BCM Gunfighter Mod 4
*BCM BCG
*Vortex / Rainier XD
*A5 stock setup with IMOD
*Personally I will be adding the Gear Sector handstop...I freaking love that thing. I got so used to the lip on the end of the Magpul handguard (which my index finger rode on), I placed my GS hadstop close to the end and place it between my index finger and middle finger. It works great for me.
Anyway, happy building and happy holidays.
Hmm. Welding the DD sights on would solve my concerns. Who could do that without screwing it up?
I think the concern was the light would get too hot.
