Command Arms/First Samco BK2 Light Mount Review

[Toothbrush]

After deciding my previous tactical light mount wasn't going to work out (30mm? Cantilever Aimpint mount) I began to search for a new mount. Amazingly, this mount found me quite by change one day on eBay. Isn't it great how eBay seems to getting me to buy stuff? O well.

The mount is nearly made 100% from plastic but as we all know plastic can be very strong and the BK2 is no exception. The BK2 flash light mount is made from a "military grade" fiberglass-reinforced polymer. Installation is extremely simple. The flashlight is held snuggly by two inner pieces of plastic that are tightened by a screw. The BK2 has two tabs on the left and right sides use to release the RIS brackets. When they are pinched you can easily slide the mount on or off to nearly any position on the rail.

Overall, I can't complain. It is far superior to my previous mounting attempts and looks better too. The only problem I have, is that it being a real steal accessory, it wobbles slightly on my airsoft rail. My guess is that because real steal 1913 rails are slightly larger (from what I hear) the mount will inevitably wobble on the smaller airsoft rail systems.

usually in reviews the price people paid for the items is given, as that is one of the larger factors when purchasing. and reviews are made to let people know about items to consider them while purchasing

i wasn't being lazy, nor am i saying it's a bad review. just saying that anyone looking at this and saying "gee that sounds like i want it! how much is it?" won't be at a loss until they can google it, they'll know instantly whether they should still consider it

but it's all good

Note, though it doesn't have the same L337 tactical look, a single 1" scope ring will do the same job for about 3 bucks.
