| Figured this was the best place to ask. How stable is the bayonet when mounted on the rifle. Im thinking about getting one, cutting it up, and turning it into a light mount since I need to be able to attach and detach the light DAILY. I would be getting rid of the ring that goes over the barrel. I have ZERO expierence with bayonets so I have no clue how stable they are. Also where would be a good source to get an older M-7 model. |
| Depends on the rifle and its bayonet mount. Chances are if the rifle sees rough use, without the muzzle mount ring a good hit could damage the lug. If there is a railed handguard system for your rifle you could always just purchase a throw-lever mount and permanently mount the light to that. A quick throw and the light is on or off. |
| Really the bayonet lug is my only option as this is for my duty RRA rifle (no rail) its stock just with an eotech on it (its a pool gun and stays in the vehicle (so it has to come off daily). Also its just going to have a 6p with a drop in module in it on the rifle. |
