Will this light mount on my AR-15? If so, what else do i need?

You would need a special hexagonal mount. This light's battery is C cell diameter.

It's an awsome light, but it's kind of big to mount on an AR. I think there are lights that are specifically made for that purpose and would probably work better. If you are determined you can probably mount the Pelican on an AR.

I do not believe this light is compatible with any weapons platform. You would need a mount compatible with both the light and the weapons platform. You would also need a switch compatible with both. I know of no interface that would do this. Surefire and Streamlight are good companies to check out for rifle lights. Weight and lumens are very important. You don't want a heavy light on the end of your long gun.I have a Surefire X300 Ultra on my handgun. It is a great light. It is compatible with some AR15s, depending on your rail system.

Doubtful. Too big for that purpose. There are better lights available for guns.

Yes your light will need to have an attachment to mount on this light. If you already have a flash light that you want to use on the rail you could order a a flashlight ring mount then attach it to the rail. I think most flashlight mounts hold flashlights that are about 1" in diameter. What I attached to mine was an offset flashlight mount that positions the light diagonal to the tube instead of directly underneath. I figured that since my thumb will be in that position while on the pump, might as well just put the light in that spot. by the way, my flashlights power button is on the back so that's why I was able to do that. Search for flashlight mount and you'll see the product. Make sure you apply blue loctite to the threads of the screws because they will come loose.

Yep... it will mount. And it has an adjustable laser tip, which allows you to pinpoint your sight better.

Yes, the light will mount onto a standard under barrel rail. (Ensure you do have a rail) i had a coworker who got a light for a GEN 1 ha - no rail...I have one on my Springfield XD45 and it fits like a glove. I also have another for my Glock 22 the fit is amazing. One of the best lights I've ever used. Hope this helps brother.

The TLR-1 works well on most carbines, AR variants, AKs, and such. Although its larger in diameter than most dedicated rifle lights it can preform as light for a rifle, pistol, or shotgun. I would consider if your looking for a "do all" light that's in the $100 range.

Your AR will need to have a rail already to mount this. Honestly though the eye relief on it is so short it'll bang you in the eye every time you fire. Also since it lacks a reticle you have to mount it behind a red dot sight of some kind.

Yes, removable clip, and yes it can be mounted on any piccitinny/weaver rail, you just have to buy a mount for it. Fenix makes the ALG-1 flashlight mount (between $11-$15) which fits perfect with this light. Or you can buy any other 1 inch diameter flashlight mount. Daniel Defense makes a great one but its expensive, I went with the ALG-1 on my shotgun and a BlackHawk offset mount for my AR-15. I have one mounted on my shotgun and another on my Ar-15.

Yes, this is a LED light. It would be great on any weapon with a Picatinny rail. Rifle or pistol...anything with a rail.

I replaced my bow light with this by using a aluminum backing plate,attached to the rail and secured by through bolting the light to the plate.No problem with the installation, and the vertical position is the only wayto mount this navigation light.

Not sure, but I would move on to a better light. I was very impressed when I got mine... looked "high dollar". I didn't even care that the pressure switch didn't work, because I wasn't planning on using it. The big issue is I mounted it on an AR 15 "223-556" and every time I fire if the light is on it cycles through on, strobe, and off. Light works fine if you never fire your rifle... would not ever trust my life with it. I guess it would be fine just to carry in a pocket or something. Gave mine to my 4 yr old son. waste of money :(

This light should fit any weapon that has the standard Picatinny / Weaver weapon rail mount, made of aircraft aluminum, the battery size CR123A.

Hello! From what I've found, It doesn't look like the Matrix tight has a mounting hole for any kind of light. It is a better quality light than what came with mine, by far. It screws directly into a threaded hole in the outside ring. I'm not saying it's impossible, but I'm not sure how well it would work on a sight that isn't designed for a light. Unless you are a very good machinist, or know one, you would have to upgrade to a lighted sight to be able to use this.

There are rail systems available. This light is more of a handgun design and would be best suited for its intended purpose. I would advise against using an AK for home defense.

This sight will work on this or any other AR-15 type weapon with the appropriate rail mount system. I purchased this specific sight for the night vision capability and because it uses two AA size batteries not the smaller Lithium type batteries.

It will mount, but I sent mine back bc was wobbly in rail and also pressure switch broke after two weeks. I went with the utg 120 lumen after and I love it!! Best light for the money!

Yep. The AR15 model comes with all you need to mount it. You can tell by the price too, without the mount it's about $40 cheaper. This is a great optic for the price. A little bulky, but very good quality. Best of luck!

It can be mounted to any picatinny rail set up use currently in use, it doesn't work like a lot of the lights where you have set screws it works using a small bar that lifts and then snaps its self into place once its found a rail crater.. It's an awesome little light and for the price i always say get it because even just as a back up its bright enough to clear a house or just find your keys lol
