Arisaka 300 Series Light Body for Users
Category: surefire scout
The Arisaka 300 Series Light Body offers a sleek replacement for Surefire Scout Light M300 weapon lights. This innovative light body is uniquely crafted without the standard mounting interface found on Picatinny clamps, resulting in enhanced clearance for front sights when paired with the Arisaka Inline Scout Mount. This combination is particularly effective on handguards that feature 45-degree mounting surfaces next to the top Picatinny rail.
Designed to be highly versatile, the 300 Series Light Body is fully compatible with all E1 series and Scout Light M300 series components, including tailcaps and heads such as the KM1A, KE1A, and KX1C. Additionally, its design allows it to fit seamlessly into any aftermarket Scout mount due to the retained mounting holes and square lug interface located on the underside of the light body. For those looking to create a custom light setup, it is indeed feasible to build a complete lighting solution from scratch by acquiring additional parts. A wide selection of tailcaps and aftermarket light heads is readily available from numerous online retailers. Among them, the Malkoff E1/Scout head stands out as a preferred choice; it is compact and proudly made in the USA.
Weighing in at just 0.6 oz, the light body is constructed from 6061 aluminum, which is then CNC machined and finished with a type III hard coat anodization to ensure remarkable durability. High-quality Buna-N O-rings are included to enhance performance. However, it is important to note that the product does not come with a light head, tail cap, or mounting screws, so these will need to be sourced separately.
A crucial reminder for users who may consider refinishing their 300 Series Light Body: if you plan to apply Cerakote, remember to mask off the threaded ends. Coating over these ends will inhibit the body’s ability to conduct electricity, rendering the light inoperable.
It’s essential to clarify that any firearms or other accessories shown in the product images are not included in the purchase.
In summary, the Arisaka 300 Series Light Body serves as a refined alternative for Surefire Scout M300 Lights, delivering a reduced profile that increases clearance around front sights and other rail-mounted accessories. Its robust construction from quality materials reinforces the product's durability and reliability, making it an excellent choice for weapon light setups. Proudly manufactured within the USA, the 300 Series embodies craftsmanship and attention to detail, ensuring it stands out in the market of tactical lighting solutions.
