I am recommendation compact laser for my ar15 builds.
Each ar15 would have its own permanent quad rail mounted laser [sighted-in @100yds]. The laser would an optical reference and would allow me swap out my red-dot and optical scope. I would use/share one red-redot and optical scope across several ar15 builds. Any suggestions? |

To see visible laser at 100 yards meters it will have to be green.
I got some China made laser that was a 40 Mw laser off E-bay. You can see that, but very cold sensitive (1st gen). The crowd would move back when that thing panned by. They would not react the same to nice guys with red lasers, for me they would move back. Viridian green laser X5LRS very bright (laser for 5Mw) and not as cold sensitive but took a while to warm up after a night in the freezer. Light worked (190 lumens) not laser for about five to almost ten minutes. Then it warmed up enough to come on and both worked while still cold. Nice thing about the Viridian is you can change the battery with out removing light unit (just light bulb). That does not change laser POI. |
