Mixed feelings about mounted lights for HD. Right now,w/o a light, my 870 runs over 9 lbs, and while it handles fine for me, I doubt most folks could wield it satisfactorily.

Once upon a time, I bought an adapter for a Mini Maglite and stuck it on. It did not help balance or handiness at all.

OTOH, target ID is crucial....
