Back in the bad ole days, we didn’t have all the rail options you do now. As a matter of fact, most gun owners were against hanging lights off guns!
This was doubly so when it came to the traditional 1911 pistol customer.
-
- Surefire MR07 Light Rail. Ed Brown. 1911 9mm. Executive Target. Two Tone.
-
- Left side. Surefire MR07.
But that wasn’t going to stop Surefire from figuring out a way to sell them weapon lights. Thus was born the MR07. This is a bolt-on rail that uses a Surefire suppled slide-stop.
More importantly, no modifications to the pistol were necessary.
-
- Surefire MR07 in hand.
-
- Closer look at slide-stop.
Bought this probably 15 or maybe close to 20 years ago. Never really used it. Frankly, as of this writing I am not 100 positive it will work on a 9mm 1911. There is a difference between a 9mm and 45 caliber slide-stop.
But no worries. I have a plan.
Sincerely,
Marky
