Magnetic quick swap picatinny mount

I wanted a quicker way to switch between a flashlight and IR light for night time ratting.  I made this magnetic mount for holding lightweight picatinny accessories to the barrel of my air rifle.  The mount is modeled for a 50mm diameter barrel but should fit a pretty wide range.  It uses 1-3 zip ties to attach. During printing, each part has space to embed two 18mm x 5mm magnets.Example: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072HV6NLBThe first version of the PicMount is flush which worked well for my small flashlight.  I added the skirt on the second version for some extra holding strength on the larger light.
