Laser sight

A laser sight can be mounted on almost any projectile- or energy-firing weapon. The laser sight projects a small, coherent spot of light that can be seen by the weapon's user, though after 100 meters, the character using the weapon must be equipped with binoculars or other visual aids (like the telescopic sight).

The laser sight can also be used with indirect fire weapons (such as grenade launchers), though an indirect fire observer must be “spotting” the sight while the weapon holder watches.

There are only two disadvantages to the laser sight: one, certain gases can refract the beam and, two, the target may see the little laser-light as well and be alerted.
