Best Benelli M4 Flashlight Mount Kit: FFT Scout Mount, Picatinny Rail & QD Sling Attachment

In this video, I break down one of the most popular Benelli M4 upgrades we’ve offered over the last several years β€” the Freedom Fighter Tactical Flashlight Mounting Kit for the Benelli M4 and M1014 shotgun platform. I explain why many of my clients personally prefer keeping the factory Benelli forearm instead of switching to oversized M-LOK handguards, and why this mounting system gives you a cleaner, lighter, and more traditional tactical shotgun setup. This complete kit includes a Scout flashlight mount, Picatinny rail attachment, and integrated QD sling swivel mount so you can build a streamlined Benelli M4 setup without adding unnecessary bulk. If you’re buying Benelli M4 parts, building a tactical shotgun, or upgrading your home defense shotgun with weapon lights and sling attachments, this video walks you through why this has become one of our best-selling Benelli M4 accessories.

Hey folks, Todd at Freedom Fighter Tactical. Today I want to talk about one of our more popular Benelli M4 upgrades over the last few years, and that’s our flashlight mounting kit for the front of the Benelli M4 shotgun.

One of the things I really like about this setup is that it allows me to continue using the original Benelli forearm, which personally is still my favorite way to configure this shotgun.

Now look, there are a lot of great aftermarket forearms out there. Companies like Strike Industries and Mesa Tactical make excellent products that allow you to add M-LOK accessories and all kinds of attachments. But for me personally, I’m more of a traditionalist when it comes to the Benelli M4 platform.

I like the original factory forearm better.

I don’t necessarily want to grab a giant aluminum handguard covered in rails and accessories. I prefer a cleaner, more streamlined setup that keeps the shotgun lighter and more comfortable to handle.

That’s exactly why I like this flashlight mounting kit.

What’s really nice about this mount is that it includes a built-in QD sling swivel attachment point so you can mount your sling directly to the front of the shotgun. It also comes as a complete kit. You’re getting the Scout mount, the Picatinny rail attachment, and the integrated sling setup all together.

You’re not buying a partial setup and then hunting for additional parts later.

Now, I’ll say this with a little bit of an asterisk β€” there’s no possible way to make one flashlight mount that works with every flashlight ever created. But for the flashlights that most people are actually running on tactical shotguns and long guns, this setup works extremely well.

Personally, I prefer the Scout mounting option. I really like Scout-style weapon lights and I think the Scout mount is cleaner and more efficient than mounting directly to a Picatinny rail. But if you prefer a traditional rail-mounted setup, the kit also includes the Picatinny rail section so you have both options available.

Another thing I offer is both left-side and right-side configurations. When you place your order online, you’ll choose whether you want the flashlight mounted on the left side or the right side of your Benelli M4 shotgun. That helps reduce unnecessary weight and keeps the setup cleaner and simpler.

We also offer these mounts in NP3, and honestly, they look absolutely glorious in that finish.

If you’re planning to mount a flashlight on your Benelli M4 or M1014 shotgun, I genuinely think this is one of the cleanest and most practical ways to do it. We’ve been selling these for years now and people absolutely love them.

Anyway folks, thanks for watching. I hope you have a great couple of days ahead, and as always, if you need help building your Benelli M4 shotgun or selecting parts, my phone number is on the website. You can call or text me any time and I’ll do my best to help you however I can.
