Best way to attach a Flash light to an AK47

What's the best way to hook up a flash light to an AK47 wood. Anyway to wire it to the trigger/near the trigger?

Ak's don't need flashlights, you just shoot full auto till the handguard catches fire. Otherwise you can mount a rail with wood screws, and mount your flashlight inside a scope ring, and attach it.

Short of attaching rails to your wood furniture, or swapping your existing furniture for tactical versions with rails, get a barrel flashlight mount, like the following:

Amazon.com: Universal Barrel Mount For 1" Flashlight laser: Sports & Outdoors

For remote operation, the flashlight would need a remote pressure switch. Depending on the taclight model & manufacturer, the remote switch may come with the light, otherwise it is a separate purchase.

And if you intend to game with it at night, don't forget pick up an IR/red filter to minimize blowing your night vision.

Black Electrical tape! Did it on my AkS-74U! Or, you could bastardize it with those railed AK handguards.

I've also seen ones that connect right to the forward sights. I can't remember the site. But they do exist.
