I'm still not sure how this thread belongs on the Full Auto forum, but I'd like to throw in my two cents anyway.

Lasers are a total waste of time and money. Looking at your target takes your focus off your front sight (or dot reticle), where it does the most good for precision marksmanship. If you're so close that you don't need to look at the sights, then why look for a laser dot? Lasers are visible when it's dim or totally dark. If it's a low light scenario, then you really should illuminate your target to identify it. Your white light will cause the laser to wash out, thus negating its utility. If you're in a team situation, how do you tell which laser dot belongs to which operator?

Save your money and the extra bulk/weight, and use a white light and some type of low light sighting system (tritium iron sights, red dot electronic) on your weapon and be done with it.
