Tequila Gun PCP

The attached video shows the progress of the project. Unfortunately I am lat on it, because I was using 3D print metal parts for the prototype but them did not works according with the expected.

Well, seeing as most of your tolerances are basically zero, ok 'slight' exaggeration but they are damn close, I can't imaging printing to be close enough.
 
Playing with my Tequila Gun some today.
I put my Holosun laser sight on it. Height wise, I can use the laser by itself, but to use the dot sight, yeah, I need to remove the laser. Luckily, the laser has a quick disconnect system.
I sighted the laser in today. Makes...hip shooting possible !!!! A few magazines worth, today. Both with and without the laser.

I am just getting into lasers now. They seem to have been made for pistols!

Do you have any recommendations?
Links?

Laser sight or a pointer? I have this one for my Tequila air gun, auto sleep, shake awake.

🔸️I thought the link you posted was called a "red dot sight".


🔸️So, like an "iron sight" — a laser that is used to aim a gun — would be a "laser sight" — I thought.
The latter is what I was talking about and appreciate any info on. 👍🏼


🔸️In my workshop tomorrow I'll use a "laser pointer" to highlight parts of diagrams on a powerpoint — and I'd hate for my students to think the laser pointer is part of a gun I brought to school....! 😆
(I can already see the headlines of the overly sensationalist Peruvian press: "School shooting in Peru!" 🤦🏻‍♂️)


Cheers,

Sorry, I don't have any actual recommendations, over just buying the one that I have.
I have no complaints with mine, other than the dot is a little large for close up shooting. Not huge, but... Obviously a lithium battery is recommended.

First, I know that Holosun makes quality red dot sights. So that was of a main consideration.
Then I spent a fair amount of time watching YouTube videos, doing my best to..."read between the lines", so to speak. There was a couple of reviewers that I trust, the rest were just for general information, that I MAY...be able to use !
Then third, on one hand, I didn't want to "break the bank", so to speak, on an experiment. On the other hand, I don't normally go for the lower cost items either. So...middle class it is.

The one that you see above is an - LE117RD-Elite laser
Current Optics Planet cost, $350.
They also have a green laser for a few $ more. The red is in stock, the green is not currently in stock.

And for what it's worth, I had this sight on one of my Caimans for quite a while, then as I have a habit of doing, just decided to put it on one of my pistols. I sorta flipped a coin and the Tequila Gun won !

Your sight is...not...a laser sight. Sorry.
What you have is a simple, inexpensive, red dot, reflex sight.

Mike
Yep, heavy on the simple, inexpensive, red dot...using a laser diode, reflex sight. I couldn't remember the name, I'm going to defer to the getting old excuse.
