Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary advantage of the Impact Weapons Components Mountain Slot design?

The primary advantage is its ability to directly attach flashlights to firearms with slots and holes in the handguard, eliminating the need for separate rail sections. This increases usable grip area and reduces weight.

What types of flashlights are compatible with the VFG Integrated mount?

The VFG Integrated mount accepts any one-inch OD flashlight. This includes popular models like the Surefire G2 and 6P series, without requiring any extra hardware for attachment.

How does the VFG Integrated mount improve weapon light ergonomics?

It positions the light offset to the right or left of the weapon's forearm at 3 or 9 o'clock. This allows the operator to easily activate the tail cap switch with their thumb while maintaining a grip on a vertical foregrip.

What materials are used in the construction of these light mounts?

The mounts are CNC machined from 6061 T6 aluminum, a strong and lightweight alloy. They are then finished with a hard anodized Type III matte coating for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance.
