I purchased a 2.5 pound fire extinguisher, 10-B:C rating.
It's made by Kidde and is roughly 3" in diameter, and about 12" long.
I am aware of these vendors who sell mounts for fire extinguishers-

BadAss Moto has nice one.

Poison Spyder has nice looking one too.

If anyone can recommend a good quality mount for my rear roll bar, I would appreciate it.
I'd like something that holds it tight, and doesn't rattle, and will last.

Thanks in advance

You don't necessarily need an expensive hard fire extinguisher mount. I have a mount with velcro straps for both the roll bar and my refillable 2.5lb extinguisher (larger and heavier than your Kidde). It stays put on my rear roll bar with no noise through all sorts of rocking and rolling. You can really pull that velcro tight and it will stay there.

I agree with this. Also,if you have a four-door hard top, you can remove the soft top hardware panel cover from the rear pillar. It creates a flat spot large enough for a 2.5lb or equivalent to hang sideways into the cabin, using its original hardware:

I used two ski bindings. This position allows it to be accessed from the rear seats as well. I don't hear any rattles from it. (Or maybe I just hear too many other rattles)

I got a Bartact mount for mine. It's solid as a rock. Straps on to the roll bar, cups the bottom of the extinguisher so it won't fall through, no rattles or squeaks of any kind.
