Coming Soon: LightLink

The LightLink® series of products, available soon from MSP, is an exciting new group of products designed to address a need unfilled up to this date - providing shooters with affordable detachable tactical lighting. While many companies manufacture excellent tactical lighting products and excellent flashlights, not everyone can afford a permanently mounted dedicated tactical lighting system and a good flashlight as well.

LightLink is the first product of its kind - designed to permit almost instantaneous deployment of common flashlights in a tactical lighting role - and without tools of any kind. This bridging technology, based on our patented torsion spring light retention system, works without nuts, screws, bolts, or tools, and will allow you to use your SureFire, Streamlight, A.S.P., Tac-Star, or other light as both a flashlight - and as a tactical light. There is no need to buy both a dedicated tactical light and a flashlight as well.

How does it work? LightLink products are an instant "snap-on/snap-off" bridge between standard flashlights and firearms. No tools, small screws, or time-consuming mounting is required. Just snap your flashlight into LightLink and snap LightLink onto your weapon - and you have immediate tactical lighting.

Is it fast? Can it be quickly used in complete darkness without tools? Absolutely! Even when drawing LightLink and your flashlight from belt pouches, you can have your weapon aimed and your target illuminated in mere seconds. First time users were timed, starting with LightLink and a flashlight in a belt pouch, and were firing aimed shots at illuminated targets in under 20 seconds. With a little practice, the light can be mounted and shots fired at illuminated targets in close to 10 seconds.

Most importantly, other flashlight mounts are solid and tend to break flashlight bulbs since, unlike tactical lights, flashlights are not always recoil shielded --- but no more. The patented LightLink torsion spring light retention system provides just the right amount of recoil absorption without letting the light beam move off target. A standard flashlight will not break a bulb during firing - even with heavy recoiling 12 gauge 3" magnum buckshot loads!

Products will initially be available for the Colt M-7 series. The original LightLink will be available for the Colt AR-15/M-16, Mossberg 590, Ruger AC556/Mini-14GB, and other similar weapons.

This series of long-gun products will be followed shortly by Models fitting the M-1 Carbine, M-1 rifle, M-14, AK-47/74, Galil, FN-FAL, HK 91/93/94/G3/MP5, Remington 870 and other common military and law enforcement weapons.

Already have an M-3 light for your Glock and want to use it on a shoulder weapon? No problem. LightLink products will be available for the M3/M5 lights, as well as the Laser Product and other "rail" detachable lights. Imagine being able to use a single light for all your tactical lighting needs - both long-gun and handgun. For law enforcement, LightLink will be initially available to mount the M3 light on a Remington 870 - the standard long gun for most officers. With Lightlink and an M3 light, officers can use a single light on both their Glock or Beretta 92 and on their Remington 870 or Mossberg 590.

More importantly, unlike other products, the LightLink does not require any modification to most weapons and does not effect the warranty on your handgun or long gun.

Want to add a LightLink system to your weapon, but it isn't one of the listed models? Again, no problem. For example, the ranching owner of a Mini-14 might want to add the LightLink system for nighttime predator control. Our patented LightLug can be legally mounted on any weapon for use with the LightLink systems.

The LightLink systems will also be available for many common handguns. LightLink will permit use of detachable rail lights - even if your weapon does not have a Picatinny rail. For example, if you want to use the Streamlight M-3 tactical light today, you must buy a new model Glock or other pistol with a Picatinny rail cut into the frame. With LightLink, you can use the M-3 on your Glock - even if it is an older model without the rail - and without modification of your weapon or magazine.

LightLink is the economic solution to all your tactical lighting needs, and will be available soon as another one of the top-line products from Mounting Solutions Plus.
