The Inforce is a light only , 200 lumen. When running a Aimpoint I personally never saw the need a laser. 1 dot is plenty for me to aim with.
MK18 light and/or laser suggestions: setup, brand, model, etc..

Ok guys on the picture I see a Surefire Scout, but what model or size of Surefire Scout is correct? My range has a FDE surefire in stock, I was thinking of picking it up next time Im there but dont know if its the correct size or model for a MK18 build
heres mine, surefire x300 with the XT07 tape switch sitting next to my MB.
tape switch sits right by my thumb its great. if i had the dosh to blow id go for the X400 green laser.
Nice I really want an FDE or Tan colored light. They said it comes with the pressure switch.....If I go with with shout Id also like the GEAR mount, but I can only find them in black in Canada at OST. I could always cerakote it myself
The X series looks really nice, but I like the standard stick light and metal body, and I dont think I would use the laser much
I think this is the best option on a MK18 with the limited rail space, the double cell would take up a lot and likely stick out too far near the muzzle anyway.
I called and its a M300A mini scout, its small so I like that. So what do you guys think is that a good model to use? Or should I be looking at another model of Surfire?
Thanks I looked at some pics of them mounted on Mk18's, and I like it! Im actually waiting about another hour or so for rush hour traffic to die down before I drive down to my range buy it. Its the last one in Tan in stock so I dont want to miss out on it
Only thing Id like a higher mount like the GEAR mount, but I'll search for that later or just order the black one from OST and cerakote it
Heres another mount that mounts like the Gear
I'm not sure if OST has a deal with GEARsector preventing them to ship directly to us but I had ordered from them directly before they had a retailer up here, was called TAG Industries back then, awesome service form Jason himself.
I could say the same from Rampart and HSP, I especially enjoyed the "15$ swag" HSP invoice aha

I ended up driving there last night, and bought the M300A and added the SR remote dual switch. They had the M952V and the M600 in stock both in desert tan also, but they were larger then I wanted and I don't have night vision so no point in paying for IR
I want to swap out the mount for a Thorntail mount but they only had them in stock for the larger lights, so I ended up grabbing the GEAR Sector mount for now
I also installed the BAD ASS safety lever last night, and I just got my package from Brownells today. I got a Colt H2 buffer, Norgon Ambi mag release, Phase 5 extended bolt release,Seekins Mag release button, and Battle Arms enhanced pivot/takedown pin set. Gonna play with those tonight
And then Im moving onto slings and QD mounts

I usually run my SU230 PVS (Specter DR) on it, but recently moved that to an M4A1 upper. Going to look for a tan EXP3 for the Mk18.
Awesome! I think we have a winner... I should get my M3X w pressure pad today, wish it was the same model you have with the dual switch but they are pretty much impossible to find especially in black. Anyway I'm not going to get a ATPIAL-C anytime soon as much as I'd love to.
there is a tan 553 in the EE right now
