    Get yourself a laser! You will find that its hard as HELL to shoot anything especially a coyote , especially when its moving threw aimpoint or eotech with a PVS-14 helmet mount. I have done it , but its no easy task.

    Night Vision Let's talk Peq15s

    Atpial sounds good! Friends Dbal D2 had camera film filter in it, maybe that's the reason for "they look the same at 200 yards" on low verses high. A man can never have to many lasers. I will have to get one when they come out. Thanks Vic!

    Night Vision Let's talk Peq15s

    Thanks Vic ! The comparison I made was a side to side test at 200 yards with the peq-2 and the Dbal D2 on a tree line. The peq-2 was on low and the Dbal d2 was on high, or that is what my friends said. My assumsion was the Dbal d2 on high was not as bright as the peq-2. I know that you know...

    Night Vision Let's talk Peq15s

    I agree. Theirs lots of good info own this site, I am glad a friend told me about this place! I fully admit that the low side of the peq-15 and peq-2 IR laser is enough. Most guys never turn the laser up past the min. setting so the 0.7 mw of the Dbal D2 is fine, and I agree with the people...

    Night Vision Let's talk Peq15s

    Deersniper is correct, what most people are after is the illumanation of the peq-15 and peq-2s. The illumanation is great for hogs and coyotes. If a person is worried about where a peq-15 or peq-2 comes from or warrant if it breaks. Why not try Newcon Optics Lam-2? I have used a friends before...

    Night Vision Let's talk Peq15s

    Nothing wrong with owning a peq-15 or peq-2 . Do you need them no, but whats wrong with owning 1 or 2 of them? I understand the dont support the" grey market", but thats easy to say when you already have or can have a peq-15 or peq-2. Why should a man pay 1600 or 1700 dollars for a Dbal D2 when...
