Arisaka Defense Offset Scout Mount – M-LOK
The Arisaka Defense Offset Scout Mount is one of the most popular upgrades for mounting Scout-style weapon lights on an M-LOK handguard. Designed to replace bulky factory mounts, it positions the light closer to the rifle for improved ergonomics, reduced snag hazards, and a cleaner overall setup.
Its compact design places the light at a natural 45-degree angle, making it easier to activate while keeping your support hand in a comfortable shooting position.

Adjustable Positioning
Unlike fixed light mounts, the Offset Scout Mount features three lateral mounting positions, allowing approximately 0.240" of adjustment.
This lets you fine-tune the light's position for:
- Front sight clearance
- Laser or IR device clearance
- Pressure switch ergonomics
- Suppressor clearance
- Preferred thumb placement
When mounted to the side of an M-LOK handguard, the light sits at approximately:
- 1:30 or 10:30 position (mount oriented upward)
- 4:30 or 7:30 position (mount oriented downward)
The mount itself measures less than 0.20" thick, helping keep your rifle as slim as possible.

Our Thoughts
When building a rifle, every inch of rail space matters.
The Arisaka Offset Scout Mount does an excellent job of tucking your weapon light in close to the handguard while still providing enough adjustment to work around front sights, lasers, suppressors, or pressure switches.
It's lightweight, incredibly well machined, and one of the cleanest mounting solutions available for Scout-style lights. The three-position adjustment is a feature many shooters don't realize they need until they start adding accessories to their rifle.
If you're looking to build a streamlined, professional-grade rifle, this is one of the best Scout light mounts on the market.
