Good inexpensive ir sight - Lasermax Infrared Rail Mounted Laser

Recently purchased this sight from Optics Planet. Shipping was very quick, and phone support was also very good.

This is the first IR sight I have used. It seems very bright when viewing through my Gen2+ goggles. It will "bloom" and is almost too bright at 10 yards and closer, although I do not plan on needing to use it that close. I can easily see it past 100 yards.

I was surprised at how small and light this sight is! The battery is easy to change, and the buttons on both sides make it easy for right or left handed use, and mounting on a bottom or top rail. It is so small that I mounted it in front of my daytime scope on the top rail of my AR, and it does not interfere with the scope at all. It is a perfect spot to reach the "on" button as it is right next to my left thumb.

The dot is nice and small, and bright up to about 30 yards, beyond that it is easy to see, but starts to grow in size a little more than I like, but it is still very usable for a fairly accurate shot up to 50 yards or so.

I have not had a chance to put many rounds through the gun yet to see how it holds zero, but if it does well it will be a great laser sight for the price, and I am considering purchasing a second one in the future.
