ABSTRACT:
A mounting apparatus for the quick-detachable securing of a flashlight or a like target illumination device to a firearm. The mounting device includes a passage for receiving the barrel of the flashlight or the like. The passage is provided with a resilient means to press the flashlight longitudinally along approximately the same axis as the firearm's barrel in opposition to a springably-positioned latch system engaging one end of the flashlight which prevents its dislodgment upon movement of the firearm during handling or discharge, yet enabling relatively quick, one-handed release and replacement of the entire flashlight. The flashlight or the like is prevented from rotating in the passage by a groove in the interior of the passage that engages part of the flashlight body thereby indexing it so that the flashlight's controls are always in the same position and accessible to the user.
