So I blew out a Daniel Defense offset light mount today.
What's a good mount? It is for a Surefire 9V built out of a 6P body with 3V adapter and shock isolated bezel. I'd prefer another offset.
I might go with another DD, but if there is something better I'd like to know.

I got a spare DD I can send your way if you need it. What happened to yours? Was it the PAK model or non-PAK?

I'd like to see pictures of the destroyed mount. Have you contacted Daniel Defense?

Contact Daniel Defense (http://www.danieldefense.com/?page=shop/contact) if something isn't right. I too am curious what happened.

I'll get a pic later this evening. Part of the collar around the screws separated, I have no idea how (it does get banged around form time to time).

Alright, here's the pic. There is a slight indentation where it looks like something hit the outer clamp part and pushed it away from the mount. It appears that in doing that the area under the head of the Allen screw was displaced.
This isn't a materials or design issue, I think it happened when I was getting it out of my truck. I'm going to contact DD and see if I can order just the clamp part. I really like this mount.

To update everybody:
DD contacted me and I've got a new clamp being sent to me.
Great CS.

They are good people, if you make it to SHOT 08, swing by and say high to them. They are the sort of people that you want to grab dinner with and talk to.
