Description
Grade 5 titanium construction meets precision IR aiming for serious night vision operations on any long gun platform.
When every shot counts under night vision, the Holosun LE117IR delivers the precision aiming capability you need without the weight penalty of heavier systems. This collimated infrared laser pointer combines aerospace-grade titanium durability with extended battery life, giving you a reliable aiming solution that performs consistently across thousands of hours in the field. The dual brightness settings let you adapt to varying ambient light conditions, while tactile windage and elevation adjustments ensure your zero stays true even after repeated mounting and dismounting.
Key Features
- Grade 5 Titanium Housing: Constructed from aerospace-grade titanium for exceptional durability at just 6.7 ounces, providing superior corrosion resistance and structural integrity compared to aluminum alternatives
- Extended Battery Performance: Single CR123A battery delivers up to 5000 hours of operation, reducing the need for frequent battery changes during extended missions or training sessions
- Dual Activation Options: Choose between constant-on mode via top-mounted button or remote activation through the included pressure switch, with rear selector switch for mode selection
- Precision Adjustment System: Tactile 0.5 MOA click adjustments with ±60 MOA windage and elevation travel range allow for accurate zeroing and compensation across various engagement distances
Important Compatibility Notes
- Requires night vision devices to see the infrared laser beam (not visible to the naked eye)
- Designed for Picatinny rail mounting systems
- The included pressure switch may require secure cable management for optimal reliability
- Some users recommend properly adjusting the quick-release mount tension to ensure it stays locked during recoil
Why We Carry It
The LE117IR represents Holosun’s commitment to bringing titanium-bodied laser technology to civilian shooters at an accessible price point. Unlike older laser designators that relied on aluminum housings, this model uses the same grade 5 titanium found in aerospace applications, providing exceptional strength-to-weight ratios and resistance to environmental extremes. User feedback from the field indicates effective performance at ranges of 200 to 300 yards when paired with quality night vision equipment, making it suitable for both tactical training and practical applications. The class 2M/IIIa laser classification ensures eye safety during brief exposures while delivering sufficient power for night vision aiming.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the effective range of this IR laser with night vision?
Users consistently report clear laser visibility at 200 to 300 yards when using quality night vision devices like PVS-14s. Actual performance depends on your specific night vision equipment, ambient light conditions, and the laser’s brightness setting. The collimated beam design maintains a tight pattern across these distances.
How does the dual brightness setting work, and when should I use each?
The high and low power settings allow you to adjust laser intensity based on ambient conditions and distance. Use the low setting (0.1mw) in higher ambient light or closer ranges to conserve battery and reduce bloom in your night vision device. Switch to high power (0.7mw) for maximum visibility at extended ranges or in very dark conditions. The rear selector switch controls these modes.
Is this laser visible without night vision equipment?
No, the LE117IR emits infrared light that is invisible to the naked eye. You must use night vision devices to see the laser beam. This provides covert aiming capability, as targets cannot see the laser designation. Do not attempt to verify the laser is working by looking directly at the emitter, even briefly.
