The idea of having assault rifle(s) at home still frightens me.....:sick2:

I'd probably prefer it not be a surefire just for economy but isn't the e1e a 1 cell light? There's got to be a cree drop in that would get something around 60 lumens.

That and compatibility with tape switches what was I was afraid of. The mount manu says " If they light body is between 0.7Surefire does make several 1xCR123 pocket lights, but none of them are compatible with the mount you picked, and no one that I know of makes any type of weapon mount for a E series pocket light.
If only...ammo prices The last time I bought ammo it was the 750ish round cans of radway green and I paid $130 a can....*sigh*.The idea of not having two "assault rifles" and atleast 5,000 rounds of ammo for each of them frightens me.
Seriously, you might want to reconsider using an AR-15 for home defense.
Keep in mind that most homes are just wood frame and sheetrock for the most part, and any round fired inside the home (where you miss the perp) is going to sail right through the walls and create a hazard for people in other rooms of the house and even in homes nearby.
Think about hiding 3 or 4 pistols around the house where a perp won't imagine them to be but where you can get to them quickly.
9mm or .45 caliber lose energy quickly so either of those might be a bit safer for defense.
I've got two Bushmasters myself, but I never gave any thought of them for use as home defense.
Just thinkin...
Nice setup aml.
I go back and forth between tapeswitch and clicky tailcap. My last AR build utilizes the Daniel Defense 9.5FSP Lite FF rail and offset light mount to put the lights Z49 tailcap switch in just the perfect location for my weak thumb while using the vertical fore grip. It uses an old 9P body with shock isolating bezel (with FM33 red filter/cap) and Malkoff Q5 dropin. This setup gives me the option of night vision saving low red light output or a whole bunch of illumination. I like the ability to use momentary or click it on too.
The tapeswitch vs. clicky issue is very much personal preference and mission requirements based. Nothing works best for everyone.

Additionally, I do not think you are going to find anyone that makes a tapeswitch (If that is what you really want) that is compatible with any of the 1xCR123 lights out there.
AR-15 are a bad choice for home defense (if you have to, try using hollow points), not to mention they won't look too good in court.
Unless your home is a ranch/ secluded area, ARs are bad idea for home defense.
go educate yourself
