BCM just released three new light mounts in their GUNFIGHTER line of products that interface with the BCM KMR handguard and other standard keymod handguards. I got a hold of a couple the other day and thought I’d share my impression of these slick little mounts with PGF readers.
The first is the BCMGUNFIGHTER 1″ light mount, mod 0. It is a low-profile, durable aluminum mount that will fit the majority of 1″ flashlights. The mount is ambidextrous and incredibly lightweight, weighing in at exactly 1 oz. It attaches directly to the KMR handguard using two T-15 torx screws (wrench included), and then another two T-15 torx secure the rings around your flashlight. BCM even took the time to mill away small sections of the mount so it will fit in the 10:30 or 1:30 position right along side a Troy flip-up BUIS. You won’t have to compromise between mounting your light at the far end of your handguard or your front sight. With the BCM 1″ light mount, there’s room for both.
I attached one of the EAG model Surefire P2X Fury Tactical handheld lights – a single output LED flashlight built for Bravo Company at the request of Pat Rogers. This light produces a brilliant 500 lumens with a powerful throw and sufficient spill for indoor/outdoor use. In my un-scientific tests, the light easily illuminated targets over 200 yards away and penetrated deep into trees and brush. The light is powered by 2, CR 123 3v batteries, and per EAG specifications comes with a “clicky” style tail cap. This combination of size, weight, power and features make it an ideal light to mount on a fighting carbine. A three battery, 1,000 lumen EAG model with the same features is also available exclusively through BCM. The BCM 1″ light mount and EAG Surefire P2X Fury are a perfect marriage if you’re looking for a light & mount combo that is reliable and intuitive to use.
The second light mount is the BCMGUNFIGHTER 1913 modular light mount. The aluminum construction is the same – durable, low-profile, and lightweight, weighing in at 0.9 ounces! Like the 1″ light mount, the 1913 modular light mount attaches directly to standard keymod handguards with two, T-15 torx screws. Two more T-15 torx screws attach the “rail” section to the base of the mount. With this design, you can flip this mount around in just about any fashion you can think of to attach your Surefire X300, Streamlight TLR or other 1913 style weapon light wherever your little heart desires.
BCM also has a third model – designed specifically to interface with Surefire’s SCOUT light. You can see more about it here.
Once again – and no one should be surprised, BCM has put out another great addition to their GUNFIGHTER line of products. You can see their new light mounts, and other KMR accessories here.
And in case you missed it – we reviewed BCM’s KMR system handguard a while back. You can read about it here.
