Doesn't stand up to heavy use - Magpul Industries Scout Light and Streamlight ProTac Rail Lights Magpul Industries M-LOK Extended Cantilever Scout Mount

dee's Review of Magpul Industries Scout Light and Streamlight ProTac Rail Lights Magpul Industries M-LOK Extended Cantilever Scout Mount
Magpul should have used all 4 of the light's mounting screw holes to secure the light to the mount but they only used 2 of the smaller ones. The issue with this is the screw holes on the light base are already very small and the aluminum is very soft, and using two of the small holes instead of all 4 (which could have for sure been done) may seem ok in theory but it doesn't stand the test of time. Since the light is mounted in a way where the stress is mostly placed on only two veryyyy small screws the light will get loose after many rounds unless you're shooting 22cal, anything with a decent punch will continually loosen the screws no matter how much locktite you use or how careful you are with torquing down the screws, and after about 200 rounds the screw holes were useless and starting to strip. All the other heavy duty mounts available for these lights use the two bigger mounting screw holes on the bottom side of the light. I will say that even the original picatinny mount that comes installed on the light from factory uses the two smaller side screw holes and that mount will also fail as well. My suggestion is to look at other heavy duty mounts, this one isn't designed to last.
