Midwest Industries AR-15 Tactical Light Mount - Aluminum Matte Finish

The Midwest Industries AR-15 Tactical Light Mount is a rigid aluminum accessory designed to position a tactical light or laser forward of your handguard, giving you better control and faster target acquisition. Built to mount directly to your AR's A2 front sight base, this light mount locks down tight and won't shift under recoil or hard use—essential when your optics setup needs to stay consistent shot after shot.

What makes this mount stand out is its tapered, angled engagement with the front sight base. Those cuts aren't just for show; they create mechanical interference that keeps the mount rock-solid once tightened. You get two mil-spec Picatinny rails running along the top, giving you flexible mounting options for lights, lasers, or other accessories. The dual anti-rotation sling swivel sockets let you run a support sling without fumbling with adapters. It fits any standard AR-15 or AR platform rifle with a stock front sight housing, making it a no-brainer swap if you're upgrading your light placement.

Installation is straightforward—clamp it to your front sight base, tighten, and you're done. Midwest Industries manufactures this mount in the USA, holding themselves to the kind of tight tolerances that keep your zero intact. The matte aluminum finish resists glare and blends with most furniture without looking aftermarket-bolt-on obvious.
