Night Vision Power/brightness/dot size of civillian leagal IR lasers

[dieselten]

I have a few pistols and a sub-sonic only 300Whisper AR that I want to use an IR laser pointer on. The normal pistol ranges will be 25 yards max and the normal 300w range is 50 yards with some shots at 100 yards. I have seen the pics of the .7mw IR lasers and at25 yards they about cover an 18" IPSC target completely. I will be hunting small game and hogs. I need a very precise aiming point. The.7mw stuff is not even close to what I can use.

Are some of these IR lasers capable of focusing the beams to a very fine aiming point? I also saw a pic on TNVC of a LDI LAS/TAC2 with only .1mw output. That dot was just about perfect. Are there other devices with that output? My mounting systems will all be picatinny rail and again, I do not need long range, I need a small aiming point and excellent zero retention.

Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks

Nick

We offer the Crimson Trace lasers in a Lowered Output that makes them much more usable. In addition we have also done the Unimax IR lasers as well. Give us a call and we can set you up.

I have been using the Lasermax unimax Ir for a few years now it has worked great for hogs and coyotes.

Another option is the LDI filter. It pretty much eliminates the bloom. My DBAL I2 set on low (.2mw) with the filter gives a pretty small, precise dot. It's super easy to flip the filter to the side if you need more power.

I've used Pete's L.O. rail master and they are the ticket for a pistol laser.

The LDI Neutral Density Filter lowers the civvy legal output of 0.7mW down to 0.1mW, making the IR laser much more precise when viewed with NODs, I have them on all my LDI DBAL-D2 and I2 systems.

Excellent info everyone. Thank you very much. Now I have to make mymind up.

Thanks
