Works great, simple to install(17/11/2009)
Easy to install on a Picatinny Rail. I used it to mount a flashlight offset of the 12 o'clock position on my AR equipped with a rail so it did not block my scope. Works as advertised.
Best Buy(23/01/2011)
Typical YHM quality at a fair price. I think that half my gun is YHM by now... Used it for an off-set mount on a back-up red dot next to my scope worked fine once the correct riser was found to mount under the sight. For this purpose, it was much less expensive than purchasing something like a purpose-built JP offset mount.
Unique set up(03/10/2011)
The YHM dovetail angle mount is the perfect accessory when your rail space is not enough. It will accommodate light or laser at a perfect angle where it cannot be blocked by the sight. Mounted this accessory just behind the YHM bipod adapter in my custom 1022 SOG using the factory laminated stock for bull barrel. A light or laser can be installed with the bipod detached. Quality is good and the price is just right.

Look for alternates.
Flash light mount(21/01/2012)
I used this product to off-set and InSight small light off-axis from my sight plane. It works well enough. Pros: no sharp edges, works as intended. Cons: Not truly 1913 mil.spec (as can be seen when mounted on a mil spec rail), and the tiny locking screw protrudes. For what I'm using it for, it's fine, but I would NOT get two of these to mount an expensive (and heavier) optic off axis. I may work, but I'd want to see a better locking mechanism, and better mil spec tolerance before trusting it to hold something expensive.
Will not work with secondary sight(09/09/2014)
The mount is adequate for mounting a light, laser, or whatever out of the way. However it is not offset far enough to mount even a mini prism sight next to your scope. It will only work if you mount it far enough forward to clear the scope or if you are running a tactical style scope with no bell. Mine went in to the spare parts box. They all should give the dimensions of the mount in the description so you can compare different brands.
