I'm looking for an integrated mag tube flashlight (i.e., the flashlight replaces the cap at the end of the mag tube)
I've seen them before (in pictures) but can't find them anymore.
I'd really like to keep the periphery integrated as much as possibly, but if an external flashlight is the only option, oh well.
Thanks!

One thing to think about is how you are going to switch the light on/off? If it's a push button Momentary ON or a first push button ON, second push OFF. I think there's someone that makes a plate that fits under the mag tube cap with a short rail on it that you can mount a light to. But, you'll only be able to switch the light when the forend is forward.

Not so much on your OP, but I've seen a few people mount a short piece of rail on the reciever and run the light with the hand on the stock rather than the hand on the forend.
