Impact Thrntl2 1913 M-lok Ofst Mnt

The Impact Weapons Components Thorntail 2 1913 M-LOK Offset Mount is a compact light mounting solution engineered for tactical rifle platforms. This offset mount attaches directly to M-LOK-compatible handguards, positioning a tactical light at 45 degrees or 90 degrees from bore centerline—a configuration that preserves sight picture alignment and reduces glint during low-light operations. Weighing just 0.13 pounds, the Thorntail 2 adds minimal weight while maintaining rigid, repeatable positioning for mission-critical lighting setups.

Impact Weapons Components designed the Thorntail 2 around the M-LOK standard, ensuring seamless integration with modern rail systems that prioritize modularity and reduced platform weight. The offset geometry keeps the light clear of barrel shadow and thermal drift, improving target acquisition in darkness or dawn/dusk conditions. The compact footprint—measuring 7 inches in length—suits both carbines and pistol-caliber platforms without creating imbalance or snagging on gear. Anodized finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for field and training environments.

Operators running modern tactical carbines, especially those with M-LOK handguards, benefit from the Thorntail 2's offset mounting versatility. Law enforcement trainers, military support personnel, and civilian precision shooters value the ability to mount weapon lights without requiring rail real estate or sacrificing sight height. The offset position prevents light bleed into optics and reduces reflected light signature—critical factors in professional and competitive shooting contexts where target identification and situational awareness depend on clean, unobstructed lighting geometry.
