    anyone know where i can get the lens cap that has the small hole in the end for a 3.6 x 42mm sightmark. somehow i have lost mine and i have moved it over to a cmmg mk3 .308 and i need that cap to sight in during the daylight. makes it easier i think.

      Do you mean the Photon version 1? If so, try contacting them. I wouldn't be surprised if they hook you up.

        Have any of you guys looked at this illuminator? Not many reviews but the ones I have seen were good.
        Little late on this response but I use this one with my Photon and it lights it up farther than I am willing to shoot at night. There are more powerful ones out there but it worked in my budget and gets me great illumination compared to the onboard illuminator

          Thanks for the review. I need to get something soon. We were out the other night and I was having a hard time in the pitch black with no moon.

            I lost mine and contacted Sighmark and they mailed me a free one to replace. Great customer service from them

              FINALLY!

              Going to get to go hunting this weekend. Hopefully the new 4.6 photon will get some work done.

                    How did you mount it to your setup? Been looking at the 6$ picatinny rail mounts for 1" lights wasn't sure what size the body of that stream light is

                      Moved one of my photon's from a bolt gun over to my mk3 cmmg. Been waiting on larue to get my mounts " ordered Sunday" great setup so far ready to give this combo a try we have a hog problem this year and this may be the cure for the older and wiser hogs

                        This one came tonight. It feels solid and is low profile. Two of the screws clamp onto the pic rail, and one secures the light. What I really like is that it attaches directly under the barrel, not to the left or right. At 200 yards, the beam is way off if you mount it on the right or left pic rail

                        Surely that photon is not permanently mounted. I have to have mine waaaay farther back than that to have a good sight picture.

                          No going to have to move it back on the rail about 2-3" just squared it up and called it a night. Going to try and get a few rounds through it this weekend

                            I purchased: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...rch_detailpage

                            and I take it on and off the right side of my AR. It is easy to adjust and puts a great picture out there. This particular mount does not fit on the side mount of the photon so you know.
