The Insight Integrated Sighting Module (ISM) is a non-magnified red dot sight equipped with an integral infrared target illumination laser and visible laser sight. The ISM was originally produced in tandem with the XM8 Assault Rifle, with the intention of becoming a standard attachment. However, even as the XM8 project was cancelled, Insight ...
Singaporean soldier aiming a SAR 21 with laser sight. A laser sight is a device attached or integral to a firearm to aid target acquisition. Unlike optical and iron sights where the user looks through the device to aim at the target, laser sights project a beam onto the target, providing a visual reference point.
View through Tasco ProPoint red dot sight (model PDP2ST) on a Ruger 10/22. Made in Japan for Tasco, the ProPoint 2 was one of the first red dot sight models to become widely popular. A red dot sight is a common classification [1] for a non-magnifying reflector (or reflex) sight that
On weapons, these sights are usually formed by rugged metal parts, giving them the name "iron sights", [4] as distinct from optical or computing sights. [5] On many types of weapons they are built-in and may be fixed, adjustable, or marked for elevation , windage , target speed, etc. [ 3 ] They are also classified in forms of notch (open sight ...
A pair of marines scan with M16A4 rifles in Fallujah, Iraq (December 2004); the one in the foreground has an ITL MARS attached via a MIL-STD-1913 "Picatinny rail".. The ITL MARS (multi-purpose aiming reflex sight) is a gun sight that combines two sighting devices, a reflex sight and a laser sight, as well as a backup iron sight.
The sight can be adjusted for range and windage by simply tilting or pivoting the holographic grating. [4] To compensate for any change in the laser wavelength due to temperature, the sight employs a holography grating that disperses the laser light by an equal amount but in the opposite direction as the hologram forming the aiming reticle.
A laser warning symbol. Laser radiation safety is the safe design, use and implementation of lasers to minimize the risk of laser accidents, especially those involving eye injuries. Since even relatively small amounts of laser light can lead to permanent eye injuries, the sale and usage of lasers is typically subject to government regulations.
