Magpul MAG498-BLK-LT | Rail Light Mount | Picatinny

The Magpul Rail Light Mount MAG498-BLK-LT is a left-side light mount designed for standard 1913 Picatinny rails. It cantilevers a light forward and high at the 11 o’clock position to keep the light close to the bore and reduce barrel shadow while enabling a more forward support-hand grip. A textured thumb ramp provides a positive index point for consistent hand placement and activation. The mount ships with anodized aluminum rings to fit light bodies from 0.75″ to 1.03″ in diameter and is intended for low-light sport shooting and range training applications.
