INFORMATION NEEDED

[LarryDScott]

I have a flashlight, the barrel measures 1.23" I need a scope ring
of sufficient size to hold this light for mounting on a rail. Does a
ring this big exist??? Thanks in advance. LDS

 

[Edd]

That is 31.24mm. A 34mm ring is 1.339". Some 30mm rings are likely heavy enough to be enlarged.

34mm rings with a reducing spacer?

34mm rings with a reducing spacer?

Are you speaking of say tape on the light to shim the space????

I have used this type ring for 26mm scopes, Even though the inserts were to shim down to one inch, You just hit the insert slightly on one end of each insert with the belt sander and they work good.

The inserts are polymer.

Anything that would satisfy you. The polymer inserts sniper mentioned would be good if you could get them to fit. Or, make your own.

 

[LarryDScott]

Whats the brand on these rings??? Is 34MM correct?? LDS

 

[Edd]

If it was my project. I wouldn’t shim it. I would bed it with epoxy.

Just get some cheap ones on ebay, It's just for a light. Yes, If you get the 34mm rings with 30mm insert adapters you should be able to make it work.

Get the cheap 34mm rings. Forget the inserts! This is the perfect time for a few wraps of duct tape! Not kidding, Larry………hit the easy button.

 

[clowdis]

It's a flashlight not a scope. Just get the 34mm rings and a couple of turns of tape and you're good to go. You should trim the width of tape to match the width of the rings so it isn't obvious.

I have a pair of BURRIS 30MM and w/o the inserts the light will not fit in the ring. The 34s should be close, I hope. Thanks for all of your help.
OH by the way this is for my Armadillo shotgun. I already have a rail mount w/a light, but the light is to weak for my tired eyes. This new light is a rechargeable lithium and is super bright. It's just to big for my existing ring. LDS

I’d get an extra wide 6 screw 34mm ring, shim the edges w/ wraps of tape to make sure of alignment , then bed the center portion with bedding compound.

I'm thinking an old inner tube for a spacer

34mm ring, roll of electrical tape. Wrap light barrel with tape until desired width is achieved. Layer of cushion hurts nothing. Its a flashlight. Snug it down firm enough. Problem solved.

I got my shotgun flashlight project complete. I used a MONSTRUM 34 MM 6 screw ring and some black tape, and made a good looking installation. A small 100K rechargeable light is wicked. I already had a picatinny mnt. on the gun from a previous smaller flashlight. Thanks to all who replied. I wish I knew how to post a picture. LDS

 

[Bill K]

Couple turns of tape, electrical or such, or even some O-rings on the light.

Well……it is a flashlight…..so your use of electrical tape is an NEC and OSHA approved use.

I use an oversized scope ring, with gorilla tape on Streamlight super tac IR with my night vision scope. Holds and points lined up with the scope(mounted on top of scope).
