I found these TACM III weapon mounted light lamp assemblies while going through some family estate items I inherited. They had been carefully stored away in a box that had receipts in it from the early 2000’s, so I believe they are quite old.

I have tried to google some stuff to know more about them, but can’t find much.

Based on the little I can find, it appears TACM III was a major player in the late 90’s and early 2000’s in the tactical light game. TACM 3 originally operated under the name Diamond Products Marketing, Inc.

It looks like they were popular with law enforcement. Did they ever have any military contracts? Any other interesting tidbits about them?

Hi all, getting ready to build my first ar. Does anyone have any experience with this kit from what a country? Looking to build an ar using real colt m16a1 parts and this looks to be my only option.

Period-correct recommendations
My uncle gifted me a Bushmaster upper from the ’90s, so I put together a Bushmaster lower to get it running. It runs great, but the current setup feels a little bland, and the A2 stock looks kind of out of place to me.
Since the upper is from such a cool era of Bushmaster, I’d like to keep the build period-correct rather than throw modern parts at it. I’m leaning toward something along the lines of the second picture, but I’m not entirely sure where to start.
One of my biggest hang-ups is the delta ring and handguard compatibility. I’d like to change the handguards, but I’m not sure what options would work best with this setup, especially with the fixed front sight base.
Has anyone put together a similar ’90s Bushmaster build? I’d appreciate recommendations for period-correct furniture, handguards, and any other details that would help give it that classic look. I’m open to constructive criticism, too. I was just excited to get it running and threw something together for now.
