ARISAKA SIDE SCOUT MOUNT M-LOK FDE

Description

The Arisaka Defense Side Scout Mount is built for shooters running a weapon light alongside a laser or illuminator on an M-LOK handguard, where rail space and clearance between devices is a genuine constraint rather than a theoretical one. Its core purpose is to replace the factory Picatinny rail adapter on compatible Scout-pattern lights with a direct M-LOK interface, dropping the light’s profile low enough to sit alongside the ATPIAL-C, AN/PEQ-15, and LA-5/PEQ without the two devices fighting for the same space. It also provides enough clearance for an NGAL and accommodates the QD lever on the Steiner DBAL I2, A3, and D2 — details that matter when those devices are stacked on the same side of a handguard.

The mount is CNC machined from 6061-T651 aluminum and finished in MIL-A-8625 Type III hard coat anodize, then coated in Magpul FDE Cerakote. At 0.6 oz and 0.2 inches thick, it adds essentially nothing in bulk or weight over the stock adapter it replaces. Compatible lights include the Surefire M300 and M600 Scout series, Modlite PLH, PLHv2 and OKW, Streamlight ProTac Rail Mount 1, 2, and HL-X (non-laser), Olight Odin, Cloud Defensive REIN, and the full Arisaka 300, 600, and 18650 Series. Longer-base Scout lights such as the M620 require the separate Arisaka Offset M620 adapter. Installation uses a T20 Torx or IP20 TorxPlus driver; removing the stock Picatinny adapter from Surefire Scout lights requires a T9 Torx. All necessary mounting screws are included. Made in the USA.
