Mine is actually just a crappy slap on light I borrowed from a buddy's back up AR until I can make a choice. Most likely go with the EOTech or shurefire Forend. It doesn't get much better than having the light and controls integrated right into the Forend. But this option does get pricey at around 249$ before tax! If your not interested in the built in light, Magpul makes a nice scout mount that's mounts the surefire scout light. The cost of this option isn't much different though seeing as its still in the surefire family of illumination devices. Then there's the cheapest way which is a quick CDM barrel clamp with light holster and slap in a cheap light. I would recommend not cheaping out when it comes to HD. Especially with your light which is one of the most important upgrades to any HD weapon. You can't shoot at a target you can't asses and identify, we don't just shoot at scary noises....
