New Tactical Light and Truglo Optic Sight
Thought you all may like to see a couple of additions to my 500 Persuader.
I could not find a dedicated light mount I liked, so went with a rig I thought may work. I could not mount the light directly below the mag tube because the top screw tightening adjustment wouldn’t fit between the barrel and tube so I set it up by the barrel at about 2 o’clock from the mag tube.
This is close to center of gravity and doesn’t affect the ‘tilt’ of the gun. I chose the UTG light due to price and brightness (126 lumens) more as a trial to see if it might work with the gun. I wonder if the Xenon bulb will withstand the firing shock so will probably unscrew it when target practicing (they make an LED bulb which will replace it if/when it blows). I know one thing: it’s plenty bright for blinding and disorientation, and that’s what I was trying to accomplish. Also has a remote on switch on the forearm (positioned it to press with thumb).
I also replaced the copper bead with a Truglo red optic.
Next is a single-point sling and that should complete the project. What next, a 590 maybe?
This is a UTG Defender Series Weapon and Handheld Tactical Xenon Flashlight (126 lumens) mounted using a NCStar MS1M 1" Scope Mount/12ga Magazine Tube 1" from Amazon.com
NOTE: NO ENDORSEMENTS OF ANYTHING HERE, JUST WHAT I THOUGHT MIGHT WORK.

). These parts come with the package. It comes with a glock rail key already attached to the light but because I've got an M&P, I had to use one of the other rail keys. It took me 10 mins to do change rails and attach this to my gun ... very easy to do.
