Nebo makes a flashlight and clamp mount for sale that is supposed to be pretty nice, but I have no experience with it.

The issue with weapon mounted lights is the necessity of being able to control the light with your support hand.

You want the light on ONLY when you need it on and OFF when you want it off. Click on switches are not a good idea on tactical lights.

Finding a mount for a good light for an off brand (non LE) shotgun may be hard.

Try CDM Gear for the mount; if not listed, call them and ask

Streamlight produces great bang/buck gun lights, along with mounts of various sorts.

This is the mount I have on my shot gun-works well with the PowerTac M5 light that I also use as a weapon light on my AR.
