Usually the laser is a light source like a flashlight seen through pretty much a regulara scope. I use a standard 4x16 with a lit red dot center. I have one of those on my 6.5 Grendel, subsonic gun, not terribly happy with it, cause the critters can easily see it moving around.
I have a Photon 4.6 with its internal IR light and a seperate IR illuminator. It is much better because the IR light is not visible bu the naked eye. I just have not had time to get it setup yet on my 358 AR Subsonic gun just yet. These two are intended to hunt hogs with at night with a can. The top is the 358 and the bottom the 6.5 setups.
Now perhaps the hogs will show up again.
