Swiss Huber+Suhner Schutzmaske 3

While the Forsheda F2/Skyddsmask 90 is still my personal favorite gas mask in terms of form and function combined, the SM-3 is a strong contender on sheer aesthetic alone.

@welcome-to-the-moulageathon managed to get some fantastic shots of it tonight; these might be my favorite kit photos we've ever taken so far.

American Defense Mfg. AD-DBAL-SF Light/Laser Base

The Steiner DBAL A2/PEQ-15A comes from the factory with an A.R.M.S. #17 Trilock Mount, which is all well and good, but I enjoyed the thought of combining my white light and laser on a single, monolithic picatinny base.

I gotta say, I'm very satisfied with this arrangement. The cable management is a little more convenient, the setup feels slicker, and the light body is suspended slightly further away than on an Arisaka MLOK Mount, allowing my Z-Bolt Tailcap to tuck in more neatly against the rail.

Though it's kinda funny - the only thing the MLOK is holding now are a couple Magpul Wire Control Clips. If not for that, I could use literally any other free-float handguard with a stable picatinny top rail lol

I'd run a KAC URX 3.1 Rail with this setup if I wasn't a perpetual broke bitch

The only potential downside to this type of mount is that any bumps on the weapon light would transfer force into the laser mount, too - potentially shifting the point of aim.

On the other hand, ADM throw levers are rock-solid, and I got one of the titanium ones as well, so I shouldn't have any issues with this.
