laser pointer on gun?

[Pastor]

I said that not JT. It comes from an EU legislation that forbids the use of electrically powered devices on spearguns. In my drunken state I cant find the artlcle or the number of it but I will tomorrow, honest guvner

Interesting, I bet no one, even the authorties have heard about this one here! It's ok, you don't need to find it

I tried this. We mounted a 4" long red laser pointer on my JBL 38. First off, our connection job was bad, and secondly, everyone knows that red light is what gets filtered out. Even knowing this we tried it, but it really didn't work. You couldn't see the point at all. Ive heard that a green point works, and they even sell them on leisurepro.com proving that they do receive use. As far as giving the hunter an unfair advantage goes? Most people say they don't work well enough to be efficient. And if you think you have a good enough gun/eyesight to use a "sight" to your advantage? I think you are stretching it a bit. This would give a minimal advantage if any at all I think. When I shoot my gun its more of a reaction, my body knows where it is, like it was just an extension of my arm, and if the shot is there, my body takes it. My two cents.

not trying to better aim, just checking idea out for informative purposes. on surface,it seems like a good idea, but further discussion would lead me to agree with vast maj. of people: probably wont work at all and definately not worth effort OR expense
