I'm interested in putting a light on my carbine. It will be mounted on a short FF RAS. I also use a verticle forearm grip. The carbine is used for 3-gun and general shooting. My questions are... Are the 6v lights sufficient or should I opt for the 9v? I'll be doing most of my shooting outdoors. Tape switch model or the constant on/momentary on model? The tape switch seems easier to operate but I've heard of problems with the connecting wire. Thoughts? For mounting, I'm leaning toward the ARMS throw lever. Does anyone like the dual thumbscrews better? Why? Which mounting position do you like? 3 or 6 o'clock? Thanks for your help. |

I haven't seen any trouble with the wires on the tape switches, except for where to route them. Go with the throw-lever. Very handy. For 3-gun, I would think you'd want a balanced weapon. 6 o'clock would be best, but you have limited real estate on the carbine. The 6v lights would fit better, but for outdoors I would recommend the 9v. |
