PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR GUN IS UNLOADED, THE SLIDE IS LOCKED OPEN, AND THE AMMO AND MAGS ARE SOMEWHERE ELSE BEFORE YOU TRY THIS- OK?
Let's say you have an XD, a $20 MaxFire from WalMart, and an old cheap Weaver ring laying around- oh yes, and a dangerously-creative mind...

Amazingly enough, with the proper technique, you can activate the light with little effort. You just put your weak-hand trigger on the front of the trigger-guard, and push forward on the button. You have to adjust the light just far enough back to make this work with your hands and grip- but a little practice, it does work.

Holsters? Hey, do I have to figure everything out for you guys?:shock:

That cannot possibly work.You need duct tape
and baling wire to make things like this function correctly.

Nice contraption.

If it works why not....I have seen worse.

Thanks guys...

This was more an effort to see if a hare-brained idea could result in a functional appliance, than anything else. The resulting Rube Goldberg contraption will certainly not "run with the big dogs" of the weapon-mounted light world. I'm for using the right tool for the job, especially when that job involves confronting people who might be intent upon re-arranging my molecular structure.

But for a coyote stealing my chickens? This would work, and for about a tenth the price of the mission-specific gun lights.
