Default A2 site, light adaptor..Update/pic

Anyone using one of these?
what I am trying to figure out, is the center of the light holder, to barrel distance?.
I already have a light I was thinking about using on my AR, but the Bezel Diameter is fairly large in diameter (1 3/4in)..(the body is an even 1inch, so I am good as far as the holder area)..
But I'm trying to figure out if the 1 3/4in Bezel Diameter will clear, and if so, by how much etc.. Thanks!

It looks like it would work fine, but I kinda hate to order it, and find it it wont, ugh..

Yeah but it has a compact flash lite, with what looks to be maybe, a 1in Bezel Diameter?

My Bezel Diameter is a large 1 3/4in..

I've been doing some searching and ran across a pic of this mount with a Surefire 6PX (1.25in Bezel Diameter), and it still has some room, but it does not look like a lot?, hard to tell if it has a solid 1/4in plus or not?

was hoping maybe someone here has one and would know for sure?..

I guess worst case scenario, if my current light don't clear, I could just stash this adapter and maybe find another lite at a show etc..

Might want to shoot an e-mail to the company and ask. Looks like there is sufficient clearance.

well, I went ahead and ordered it..
I have searched the net high and low for more pics and info, did not yield much, but, when it gets here, I'll post any details that may be of importance on it, in case someone else wants one some day..

finally back for an update.. I got the bracket, which seems really nice!
but my Cheap flash lite was made with a rib on it in a stupid area (which probably helps explain why it was so cheap) LOL!..
anyway, I ended up running the body of the lite to a friends machine shop and had him mill off the rib, fits great now man.

And if this will accommodate my monstrosity of a lite, it should work with ANY lite, especially an actual nice name brand Tact lite.... LOL

useless rib on cheap flash lite body..


Rib gone.. LOL


I do not have the lock down screw installed yet in this pic, but I'm all set now..
I was not directly above when I took this pic, so the lite Bezel is not as close to the barrel as it appears in this picture.. (it is very close to 1/4in)
