>>>>>[No problem. Aimpoint scope. You look through it, you see a red
dot, just like a laser except nobody not in line with the back of the
scope can see it. Put it on the target, and boom. No range problem, no
beam catching mist in the air, no "it's a bright day and he's wearing a
red shirt, where's my laser dot?" You can still miss with shot: too many
people have managed it while firing at me.
Only drawback is, you have to bring the weapon up to your eye, but then
that makes you pull it into the shoulder: and that means you *will* hit
what you aim at. Twentieth-century tech, which is why I like it. It's
simple, it works and it doesn't break.
And there ain't no beacon in *my* credsticks. (Though I have a certified
stick rigged with fifty grams of Composition 12...)]<<<<<
