lasers......

.......not to affix to a rifle, but this seemed the best place to post my question:

I need to be able to put a fairly bright dot, through glass, in early morning/early evening daylight, on deer at about 50-60yds, without disturbing them ..........what do I need that won't break the bank?

Not sure how LASER light holds up through glass, but if the light outside is much brighter than normal in house lighting, you might need to consider a green LASER.  Never worked with one, but they are said to have better range/brightness than red ones...and 50yds is a good distance

If all you need is a LASER, you might get by with some type of pointer or other non firearms product.  Might be cheaper due to no mounting system needed and won't have to stand up to recoil and rough usage.

Also, they won't need to be as compact so you will get more power available in the larger package.

Here is a 30mv green laser pointer.   You can start your search  here.

Found this place....and got a chat window with a customer service rep when I entered.  Told him what you wanted....50yds through glass early morning or evening...he said the E2 or E3 series would be what I would want to check out.   They might be bank breakers depending upon how tough of a bank you have....

Dare I ask WHY you want to point lasers at deer 50 yards away through a window? Just trying to freak them out?

If deer see a laser pointed at there side, do they think thay will be shot?

Excellent Solus - Thanks. I should be able to spare $90 for that E3 from Wicked Lasers, looks like it might work just fine

FQ:  I have either very inexperienced shooters, or very old shooters whose eyes are not as good as they once were in the blind and I'd like to be able to point out a specific animal (from the windowed side of the blind) in the crowd under the feeder. This came to a head this morning with a very old friend of mine (by which I mean he's very old....not that I've known him a long time!) who couldn't see that one deer had antlers!!!!!!.................anyway he made a good shot on a big doe

Merry Christmas All,

LASER designated target.....I think it's called 'Painting" by the guys with the big guns

Now that you explain the problem , I remember a writer describing a hunt at your place.
This sounds like an ideal solution .

Ahh, Texas style hunting. That explains it. I was wondering if it was just for pshyops on Bambi.

I ain't so pshy  , and you'll notice that I never called it 'hunting'..........'shopping' maybe?
