Best Laser pointer: Twod red dot pointer

Buy on Amazon

Compared with other pointer in this category, the twod red dot pointer has a convenient design. This green laser sight is truly a weapon in and of itself, blindingly green, brilliantly and anger making insult to your eyes should you catch a reflection of the light in some reflective surface. It’s way too long but so accurate and holds to zero. The green laser is a lot more visable outdoors compared to the red ones of much higher prices. It does fit perfectly on a rifle scope.

The brightness is amazing, it's easy to sight it, and the only issue is the optional wired switch attachment. It is easy to swicth from mode to mode on the fly. It’s easy to acquire in direct sunlight. It’s a very good light.

Best For an air soft gun: Feyachi red dot pointer

Buy on Amazon

The feyachi red dot pointer should be able to handle its purpose and duties with ease. It is a perfect self-defense/CQB weapon system. It comes packaged nicely with 6 batteries for the laser and 2 for the reflex sight. The laser dot is more of rectangular than a dot. It will only go on the front of the gun upside down and at that point you won’t be able to use the scope only with the red dot. It also looks great on the rifle.

The design is well thought out with easy access to everything. It is easy to adjust with a twist for the brightness or push/pull for reticle shape.

Easy to adjust and sight in

It gets close enough to be a useful guide, and would be plenty accurate within the short confines of a house or someone's yard. It's also metal and easy to use.

The horizontal adjustment doesn't quite go far enough one direction to actually reach the center. It's accurate, lines up with aimer.
