Scope mounted light

So I bought a cheap ($21) ebay scope mounted LED rechargeable light that came with a laser too. I took it out last night for the first time and that thing is deadly on the coons! No more messing with the light on your head to get the coon lit up!

The laser is kinda cool, but not sure if I will use it.

Anybody else using these? I will try to get a picture uploaded

I have had a barrel or scope mount light for the last few years, and recently put a laser on my little badger. Once the laser is dialed in you'll never want to use anything else and I never turn my gun light on. Pain to sight in, but worth it

Been using one for years. Yes makes it a lot nicer then trying to shine the tree just right and see through the scope at the same time.

here is the one I bought.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/30214507485...K%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

The only problem is it took 2 weeks to be delivered from china.

I had a laser on an old .22 for a couple years, and it worked great most of the time... but I hunt several riverbottoms with huge cottonwood and oak trees. It is awfully hard to hit a coon 80 feet up that wont look, so I like a scope to magnify it a little. The laser was awesome if the coon hit the ground running.

I took a weaver base and screwed it onto the end of my 10/22 stock, put a small led flashlight into a 1 inch ring. Easy to put on and take off the base. Shines where the gun points. The whole thing only weighs a few ounces.
