The MVF-515m combines two staples of the Picatinny rail and combines them with a third in the form of a forward pistol grip. On one side is a 200 lumen white light LED and the other has either a visible or IR laser. Both run from a couple of CR123 that are contained in the aluminum, full-tang grip. Righties and lefties are covered with separate buttons to operate the light and laser on each side of the grip. The controls can be programmed for momentary, constant and strobe activation.

Crimson Trace designed the system to make room for ATPAIL, DBAL-A2 and other rail pigs so shooters will always have the basics in an easily operable and accessible format no matter what other devices their mission profile calls for.

What they said: “Makes hitting the target at any range in complete black a possibility without compromising your position.”

The Advanced Target Pointer, Illuminator, Aiming Light AN/PEQ-15 delivers a visible laser pointer along with an IR pointer and IR illuminator that makes a deadly combo when used with NVGs. We heard that the IR pointer can be defocused and used to light up and ID targets hundreds of meters away under NVGs. The visible laser is slaved to the IR to make it easier to sight in. It runs from a CR123 for 6+ hours and, best of all, it’s about half the size of the older AN/PEQ-2.
