How Effective Are Lasers On Rifle & Pistol Setups?

What kind of red dot on the scorpion?

you should mount the laser on the left side of the scorpion for easy control

Lasers should go on bottom or top of rifle imho

Personally, for my mom who wants a larger gun for the home a laser works phenomenal. She doesn't have the same strength we do to hold up even a light weight AR pistol or something but we tried a laser with an AR pistol and she can light it up accurately super well.

I liked your revue in you Zion 15, I know own one. My question is do you mount your sling attachments on the inside or outside of you rifle?

Worthless outside can't see the beam, use a red dot instead. Enemy can see your laser in low light or night

Like a fixed sight pistol. You have to practice shooting at different distances to figure out where to hold.

I need glasses to read.
I can still see the wings on a fly at a hundred yards but regular sights are a blur.
I run a red dot and a lazer co witnessed.
Practice to know where to aim at various distance.

In a home defense situation where you have a gun trained on a bottleneck, and no idea where your target is coming from, having a laser is much better for maintaining a sight picture.

I have a 16 inch barrel with a long range scope so with a laser it makes my chances on hitting a target up close a lot better in my opinion

Are there any reputable laser systems designed for the AR platform that are NOT combined with weapon lights? Just a dedicated laser optic?

I’m blind as a bat without my glasses or contacts, so any illuminated aiming device is going to help me a lot in a pinch. I should probably get a green dot though

How are you supposed to use the non visible laser setting
FOR SNIPERS

Pros: increases hip fire accuracy
Cons: lazer visible to enemies

I'll use mine only in a self defense situation not using sights or firing from the hip, which most likely would be the case.

Lasers are particularly effective for hunting feral cats with a 10/22.

MY MAN! UR SCREWY!! LASERS ARE STRICTLY FOR CQB (close range).. LESS THAN 7-10yds…FOR CIVILIANS – WHEN SPLIT SECONDS MATTER!!!! USE UR SIGHT (RED DOT, etc) FOR "OUT THERE" … 25yds, PLUS! MR LASER HERE! I BEEN MOUNTING LASERS -WROTE THE BOOK ON IT – FOR SERIOUS CIVILIANS, SWAT TEAMS, etc. – SINCE THE EARLY 2000's. THEY ARE A KEY COMPONENT TO WINNING!!! SHOULD BE "STANDARD EQUIPMENT" ON EVERY HOME DEFENSE CARBINE or PISTOL.. AS IMPORTANT AS HAVING AN OPTIC SIGHT TO BEGIN WITH!!!

I don’t even like a Novak sight on 1911’s, just a plain GI steel leaf dovetailed in. A laser is out of the question….

3 of my pistols have olight light/lazer combos.

IR lasers come in handy with night vision i run a duel laser IR and green i can set the green during the day and zero the IR to the green at night using night vision as most ranges will not allow night firing

Excellent video. It's nice to see more acceptance of laser sights–I've been using them for years, but the 'purists' seem to mostly poo-poo them, despite their amazing usefulness. But I have been doing something a bit differently: I have 2 lasers on all but one of my rifles, one red and one green. They are mounted close to the weapon, and barrel height, so they always show the correct aiming point on the horizontal sight line. I sight them in for different distances depending on which weapon they are on, but the red laser device is always on the left and the green on the right. For distances of less than what the particular rifle is sighted in at, there will be a space between the 2 dots, so the middle is the target point, and the red is on the left. When the lasers are on something farther than what they were sighted in for, the green dot will be on the left, but the target point is still in the middle between the two dots. And as an added benefit, if one goes out (battery failure or worse), I still have one to work with. And having one of each color helps if the lighting or target is not optimal for that particular color. It's been working for me (although NOT in any type of combat situation)–I'm wondering if anyone else is doing something like this. BTW–they also come in handy when changing a rifle's optics (I often have more than 1 for each rifle), because all I have to do is re-sight the optic on the laser dots.

c and red in one package, or even a filter to change from red to greenlint, look into dual wavelength lasers, green

Lasers are for firing from improvised positions. Around cover or ballistic shield etc.

I have a friend with a lazy eye and cross eye dominant issues. Can’t shoot rifle at all. Laser changed his life. The idea came to me when I was shooting under NODs and thought “why doesn’t he just use a day laser?”

"You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have sharks with freaking lasers on the head"

Love it!

Tertiary ? ……. degradation ?……. Somebody is gearing up to be a Marine Corps officer ???

U can aim thru ur scope to ur front post in a pinch

On a handgun they are pretty great if you can't find the sights or just can't get the gun up to aline the sights.

Lasers are fine on long guns, but I’ve always found them to be annoying on handguns. I tend to fall away from good shooting mechanics as a result of lasers, so I ended up taking the Crimson Trace off my Glock 23 and said good riddance to the damned thing.

I use mine for shots in low light when I can see the target but can't see my sights very well. I can totally see a green laser at dusk, but not black sights so much.

So why wouldn't you put the laser on the bottom of the gun? No worries about being too far to the right?

I'd love the chance to perfect that cz scorpion…. hint! hint! Clint!

Years ago I swore no lasers. I now have a bunch. Mostly CT, laser guards and laser grips. Yes there are limitations and irons are primary but I now love lasers. Green is easier to see in daylight than red. I only use instant on version for defensive guns. But also for a gun like my TAC-20 very useful. I also have small hands so some of the Glock versions did not work for me. And 1911 laser grips in G-10 very fat grips, even worse with green laser. I need to also mention a great training aide, even in dry fire you can see if you are breaking the shot without changing aim.

That binary trigger in the binary position will cause great pain on your trigger finger while firing. That's the reason most scorpion buyers(me included) change out the safety after their first range trip

This is Bunny not only cant u speak but I knew some of your girlfriends hahahhahah

That’s why I’m keeping my iron sights on my m&p sport 2 I’m just trying to find the right red dot for it anyone had any suggestions would be nice. Not trying to spend a arm and leg on a sight either

I think Clint is looking at my search history because I was just looking at laser last night and trying to decide which I want to put on my upcoming AR pistol build

❤🧡💛💚💙💜🖤

My light has a laser but whenever I take it off to clean I have to re zero if which is a pia

The iron sights/manual transmission analogy is pretty good, but it breaks down in one CRITICAL area…. The difference between manual transmissions and iron sights is that a sports car with a manual transmission is WAAAY MORE FUN to drive than the same exact car with an automatic transmission. The same cannot be said of irons vs red dot though..

They are good for people with aging eyes like me.

I just taped my cats 🐱 laser on my ar15 😁

Laser beam in the night, definitely a scare/intimidation tactic, especially green lasers

“LASERS”

If one is well trained with his are her weapon point shoot , then I would say No Lazer, in a CQB, it would cause telegraphing, in low light longer range yea I can but agine your telegraphing an there fore why do we use suppressors?

Now young Blood frist off Thank you for your service to Our Country but let me enlighten you on a pump with 5 yrs of SRT Under my belt that sound of a bump shot gun is a Ooo Chit sound that is known far an wide an i have seen it halt alot if possible BS if you know what I mean
Thanks for keeping old school up to date with these new and improved tools

For the love of God change the intro music

The hell with bluff the only sound there gona hear is the bullet leaving the barrel.
