threeheadeddog: That's a really good thought about not using the front sight itself to hold the light -- I think the winner is to make the rail mounted FSP not a light mount at all, but just a FSP that has a donut hole in it, the height and size/shape of the hole designed such that all or part of "most" lights will be able to pass through the hole. That way, it could be just as "solid" as any other rail mounted FSP, and it would allow you to use a standard (or integrated into the light) light mount and either mount the light:
a) behind the "donut fsp" so that the front of the light is inside of or passes through the "fsp donut".
-or-
b) in front of the "donut fsp" so that the rear of the light (and presumably the rear tail switch/button) sticks out the back of the FSP giving the user access to it.
I suppose there's no reason that there couldn't also be a integral to the gas block version of the same concept for those who want/need the durability of having the FSP integral to the gas block.
