There's one little issue with the particular combo of the Elzetta mount and the 14.5" barrel, especially with a muzzle comp like the Dynacomp-
The bezel of the light is awful close to the blast area, and incandescent bulbs are not known for their blast resistance. Knowing this, and not really liking the G2 anyway (old tech, dim as hell (65 whole lumens) compared to new LED lights...) I figured it'd be a good chance to see what it could take.
Apparently it'll take somewhere between 40 and 60 rounds of 55 gr. Wolf FMJ before giving up the little electronic ghost. I was somewhat hopeful that it'd hold up longer than that, since the bottom of the comp is fully closed (to counter muzzle rise and cut down on dust signature) but apparently not quite enough.

Oooh, that is waaay forward..!
Wish I could send you an Elzetta ZFL-M60 to try with that setup.
I'm willing to bet that the only thing you'd ever have to do is clean carbon off of it.
I do need to get my hands on one of them, I think it would hold up if it doubles as a hammer.
No shadow issues though! ;)
I like mine further back but whatever works for you...
I actually prefer a TLR-1 on a cantilever mount at the 10 o'clock, but this was for extreme testing.
