After much searching I have come to the conclusion that this website has the most knowledgeable and experienced individuals posting in regards to flashlights.
So I have come here with my first post to ask for help.
I have a Nitecore Extreme R2 flashlight. I would like to mount it to a MIL-STD-1913 rail in an offset mount. The Nitecore company has emailed me stating that the diameter of the light is 17.8 mm and I am having difficulty finding an offset light mount that will accommodate the diameter of the Nitecore Extreme R2 and the short length of its body.
All the mounts seem to be 18mm. Is .2mm going to make that much of difference and lead to the loosely mounted light?
I appreciate any assistance that anyone could offer as to where such a mount can be obtained or how I can modify it to fit in an alternative mount without losing any of it's operating modes.
Thank you.
