Daniel Defense Offset Flashlight Mount 1" Aluminum Black Anodized

The Daniel Defense 0302016514 Offset Flashlight Mount positions tactical lights at the optimal 45-degree angle for enhanced target acquisition and reduced shadow interference. This precision-machined aluminum mount accommodates 1-inch diameter flashlights while maintaining a low-profile design that won't snag on gear or holsters.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard inline mounts that create shadows directly behind the front sight post, this offset design positions the light beam at an angle that eliminates most shadowing issues. The 45-degree offset also allows for ambidextrous operation and keeps the light beam clear of muzzle devices and accessories. Daniel Defense machines each mount from 6061-T6 aluminum with precise tolerances that eliminate play between the mount and rail system.

Key Features

• 45-degree offset design eliminates shadow interference from front sight posts
• Precision-machined 6061-T6 aluminum construction with Type III hard coat anodizing
• 1-inch diameter clamp ring accommodates most tactical flashlights
• Picatinny rail compatible with MIL-STD-1913 specifications
• Low-profile design measures 1.75 inches in height when mounted
• Ambidextrous operation suitable for both right and left-handed shooters
• Tool-free adjustment with captive thumb screws for field modifications

Field testing demonstrates consistent light placement even under recoil from high-powered rifles and rapid-fire sequences. The offset angle provides effective illumination for close-quarters scenarios while maintaining compatibility with magnified optics and backup iron sights. The hard coat anodized finish resists wear from repeated holstering and environmental exposure.
