Reviews & Ratings for MFT React Torch Mount and Vertical Grip — 8 reviews — Page 1

Haven’t used it yet. Seems well made. I’d like the light activation button to be a trigger type or on the side. Would also be nice to able to fit more light sizes. A pistol like piece of rail under the front would be useful .

I first thought I had made a mistake with this one until I played with two different flashlights and learned its features. There are three switches - one blocks the back switch from being pressed. The back switch serves as a quick thumb switch for changing light modes. The front switch serves as an on or off switch. You do need to park this grip to the right flashlight - I tried three different ones and had to get it settled just right to get optimum performance. Set it up right and it will work well for you.

As a grip it's fine. For its intended purpose to activate a flashlight, hmm, not so much.

Difficult and finicky to adjust is an understatement. As someone else mentioned the thumb switch doesn't have enough travel to function reliably. Tried it with three different Fenix models.

Since forward travel is limited to 1/16" the tail button of the flashlight has to be right on the actuator to cycle it off and on. When the "safety" lock is on, so you don't unintentionally turn on the flashlight, the actuator still moves 1/32" or half its travel. Not enough to cycle the switch on and off but plenty enough to momentarily turn on the flashlight. Move the flashlight out enough to avoid unintentionally turning it on and the tail button is now so close to end of the pitiful 1/16" range of motion it can't fully engage the tail switch enough to cycle it on and off.

The lock mechanism is stiff and arguably difficult to actuate. Not too difficult with with a thumb maybe, not so sure about the forefinger of your weak hand.

I have a remote switch for one of the flashlights, unfortunately the pressure pad well is too narrow.

A major disappointment. Although it might be a great cigar holder if you smoke 'em while you're shooting. ;-)

I purchased this product in black from Optics Planet.They had the best price by far. This is a good product at a fair price. I really like Mission First Tactical (MFT) products.The quality is high without a high price. I wanted a good quality grip rail light for my AR-Carbine but my budget does not allow for a $500 plus Surefire weapon light.I purchased this product and a Surefire G2X LE and I now have a high quality grip rail tactical light with 400 lumens for an investment of around $100.00.The G2X LE fits this grip perfectly. The grip will fit lights from .75 inch up to one inch in diameter and it includes two differnt size spacers for lights smaller than one inch in diameter.For one inch lights no spacer is needed.The lock out switch works like a cross bolt safety. It is a bit stiff but serves the intended purpose.The cut out on the right side of the grip allows the pressure pad for my laser to fit just right.The storage compartment allows you to carry two extra CR123A batteries with room to spare.The rubber stopper on the bottom of the grip fits securely. The grip is comfortable and the ergonomics are just about perfect. The grip fits securely to a standard picatinny rail using two flat head screws.The flashlight fits securely inside the grip using one flat head screw.The G2X LE light has a high/low setting and the switch on this grip allows you to use either setting with ease.The MFT website shows a foam insert with the grip. My grip did not include this insert so I hav...

It holds on solidly to the rails and feels good in my hand. I have yet to put on a flashlight on it so I cannot comment on that part but the switches seem to be working fine and manipulating them is not a problem.

This is much improved over the previous model - it's been shortened and thinned down. It's a great grip and light mount. The "safety" switch is a little finicky and feels a little weak. My only other concern is that the flashlight mount could be a little more rigid - I am able to wiggle the tip of the flashlight a bit, but it returns to it's normal position. Overal, for the price, it's a great grip+light!
Pros: Cost, compatibility, functionality
Cons: Could use a little more durability
