Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key features of the Laser Speed M6 TR?

The Laser Speed M6 TR features co-aligned visible laser, IR laser, and illuminator, adjustable via a single turret. It includes a non-proprietary crane port for external switches, a powerful IR laser (approx. 30mW), and an adjustable illuminator with a wide range of convergence and divergence.

How does the Laser Speed M6 TR perform in terms of illumination and laser output?

The illuminator is effective at 100 yards on low power and can reach 400-500 yards on high. The IR laser is strong at approximately 30mW, allowing for long-distance target identification. The illuminator can also be narrowed to a beam for focused long-range use.

What was the reliability testing for the Laser Speed M6 TR?

The M6 TR underwent reliability testing with over 475 rounds fired, showing good zero retention and perfect turret tracking. One unit experienced an intermittent issue with its crane port after heat exposure, but this was not repeatable on a second unit and is covered by warranty.

Is the Laser Speed M6 TR suitable for all tactical situations?

The M6 TR excels in outdoor, open environments due to its powerful illuminator and laser. For close-quarters room clearing, it may not be ideal as it lacks a dedicated flood mode and can cause IR bounce-back. Supplemental helmet lighting is recommended for such scenarios.
