walshie 2,804 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 My lamp is a bit overkill for my rimfires, so i was thinking of mounting my LED Lenser P7 onto them instead as the range is good enough for a rimmie. Only trouble is the mounts look horrible. They look like they would swivel round the scope at the first chance and it appears you have to take the whole thing off to put the torch on. Is there an alterantive out there that would fit? Ideally I'd like to leave the bottom half of the bracket on my scopes then clip or slide the torch into the mount when I need it.

treecreeper 1,136 Posted September 15, 2014 Report Share Posted September 15, 2014 I use one with a laser, iv modded it abit to sit around one of my mounts so that probably stops it spinning around on the scope tbh. The Velcro one is probably more adjustable as to where its pointing as that's the only issue I had. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
moxy 617 Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 Have a look into these, they offer a wide range of mounting options. Available upto 30mm and also in single rings so you can quickly detach if needed. I have one mounted on a P7 but the kids have had it away Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nasher1 258 Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 I've been using one of these mounts and they are very good the beam trajectory alignment is spot on. When I first got it i thought it wouldn't work but was pleasantly surprised Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IanB 0 Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 If you have a 40-42mm scope you can use one of these, there a too low for a 50mm objective though. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bike-Cycle-Bicycle-Light-Front-Cree-Torch-LED-Flashlight-Mount-Bracket-Holder-/321545123288?pt=UK_SportGoods_CyclAcces_RL&hash=item4add9535d8 I have them fitted to air rifles and mount the T20 style torches in them, they hold very securely and you can just pull them out without removing the mount very easily. Spot on to be honest Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spot on to be honest i have one one a 50 mil lense but i cut the bolt out then got a longer nut and bolt and packed inbetween with washers works a treat Quote Link to post Share on other sites
