I'm thinking of jocking up a night time pig rig based on an AR. What type of lighting/sighting configurations have you tried and what recommendations?

My weapon of choice for close in night hunting pigs is a Marlin lever gun in 44 mag with a 1-3 scope on it. I mount a spot light on top of the scope with or without the red lense filter. Where ever you point the rifle, the light goes with it. Works great. (the scope has to be a 1" tube)

I usually only use the light after I'm done shooting, but I've seen people shine them straight in the eyes without the pigs really caring. I think they don't necessarily know what's going on when the light shines at them.
There's a ATN Thor 640 in that for sale section for $2500Hahaha oh god I wonder how I even found this. Google search? I was really surprised people weren't recommending the ATN stuff.
