Great job!! This is a niche topic that a lot of tubers skip over!!

I started with my light (TLR RM2) mounted on the side of the fore grip. But since it was back from the end of the barrel a ways. I got a lot of shadowing. The barrel basically blocked one half of the beam throw. Ended up going with the 6 o'clock position. I get a lot better light spread.

Foregrip mounted lights cast huge shadows from the barrel and magazine tube which can block your view of an attacker's hands or weaponry, especially with a sling/strap hanging in the way. Lights should be attached just behind the end of the barrel, on the magazine tube or the barrel itself. Even though weapon lights are designed to survive shock a foregrip mounted light on a pump shotgun will be submitted to even more destructive stress from the slamming back and forth while pumping ammo. Barrel mounted lights will not survive as long as magazine tube mounted lights.

Bro! Was that a fart at 2:46.. rewinded and watched over and over…listen for it! Lmao 😂.. I’m sorry..great vid …Thanks!

Great video and topic. I’ve ran into many of the same issues you discussed with trying to figure out a light setup for my 870. I’m not crazy about having lights mounted at the 3 or 9 o’clock because it doubles the width of the gun. Not a huge issue but just bugs me on my set up

If you apply medium back pressure on the foregrip when dry firing you’ll notice that it stays locked in place upon pulling the trigger. However, under recoil, and the natural movement that takes place, the foregrip will slide right back without you having to do anything else. It’s the fastest way I’ve found to cycle a pump. Think of it almost like bump firing. Too much pressure backwards and it says locked. Not enough and you won’t come all the way back: usually results in either a hesitation in the cycle and a second action to finish pulling it back, or short shucking it and ending up with an empty chamber. Give it a try and see what you think. Crazy how fast you can get with a pump using this method. Last tip, should you decide to give it a try. Also focus on really holding/steadying the gun with your firing hand, shoulder and cheek. This gives some stability while allowing the hand on the foregrip to cycle automatically without a death grip. God bless. Thanks for the video.

GG&G make a great forward sling mount that goes under the mag cap on the pump guns , both the Remington and Mossberg , it keeps the sling out of the way of the light , ether on the left or right side , and the Magpul para clip works with looped one .

The Surefire forearm definitely adds to aesthetics too lol. Congrats on 1k 😎

What mount adapter are you using to attach the sling to the rear of the Benelli M4? Couldnt really see how that is attached

When I Get My 590, I Will Use The Stream Light TL-Racker & The Tactaload Fast 5 Butt Stock... GREAT VIDEO...

There is also a light that replaces the mag tube cap, but I’m not sure how good it is

Love the shirt. I’m a huge Filson fan boy. But I wish they’d just stick to the classics and make everything here. You can’t beat their tin cloth or mackinaw wool products. Literally heirloom quality.

I have the Streamlight TL racker on a 500, been running it a few years and abused it and it’s held up so far.

Great video!

Great video. I think the Surefire DSF is the way to go

I was looking at the TL Racker. But may go surefire. There was a police magnum with surefire for sale at Safefire in camas. The light on that seemed dim. Might just needed new batteries. It was 600 not a bad price.

Do you have a link to share the strap/sling for the 1st shotgun displayed. The 590 I’m trying to find one specific that mounts to the m-lok

6:03 anyone know where I can get that mag clap with rail & swivel ?

I went w/ a nice cheap universal Nebo brand light mount for my mossberg 500__ paired it with a 600 lumen flashlight

Magpul forends/wml2s/Pump straps are 👑 or take a moe rail section just dremel drill/sand/expoxy set with screw mount rail at end of any Classic mossy 🌽 cob pump with wml2/olight keep those pump straps ON a weightless VG especially if 💥💪

Do you ever have issues with the velcro adhesive on the 930 fore end? I just got a streamlight with pressure switch for mine and was contemplating the best way to mount it since I won't have a rail to mount it to. Any recommendations on velcro? Is 3M going to be the best?

Glad I found your site and subscribed. Just bought a used Mossy 500 and will sling it. I have a KSG and it runs nice, but I agree about the pistol grip. Truth be told, I wouldn't have bought the 500, if I liked the KSG all that much. Thanks for the video.

Any suggestions for an affordable yet reliable light to mount under the barrel with a pressure pad? Mossberg 500 with a turkey barrel needed for coons, possum, coyote and preditor birds. Load with 2 bird shot, 2 00buck then a slug at the end.

dude what is that mount for the 940/930 mossberg??? I need one so I can mount it to mine.

I just bought a new 590A1 yesterday on Gun Broker, my first "combat/home defense" shotgun. It has the 18.5" barrel, so my light mounting options are limited. I would get that Surefire forend, but it costs over $100 more than what I paid for the gun lol. However, it does have the M-Lok forend just like yours, so I'll probably mount a light that way. Before I even get to mounting a light, it needs several things first: a shorter LOP stock (either Hogue or Magpul, haven't decided which yet), and probably the front bead replaced with a XS big dot. But who knows....it could end up being the best $455 I've ever spent! Thanks for the video!

Is there a pressure pad option that's not the surefire with the integrated light? It's too bulky and ugly

Are you in Oregon?

First method bucks up my knuckles. Barrel clamp is the way to go.

I thought the pressure pad made the noise and was like that’s just gunna announce where you are haha

Tillamook?

In my opinion, shotgun light mounts are drastically behind the times. Universe shim type mounts are garbage on shotguns. Mounts that use the barrel as a mounting surface are crap too. Barrels get hot. Light mounts for shotguns should be custom-made for the exact diameter of the magazine tube, and the mounting surface should be sufficient to clamp very well to the tube. High-quality aluminum or steel. Locktite.

I’m offended you think my KSG isn’t a serious use scatter gun

Tube clamps.

Mounting sling to front of gun is ridiculous. Seems like we haven't evolved from that trend.

Believe in Jesus Christ and ask him for eternal life be blessed

Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess. The question is not if but when you will cry out to Jesus, in this lifetime or when you face Him when you die. The choice is yours my friend. I pray God opens your eyes and ears to the truth.
