For visible https://www.eurooptic.com/holosun-le117-gr-titanium-collimated-laser-sight-w-qd-picatinny-rail-mount-le117-gr-bmyn Ir https://www.eurooptic.com/holosun-le117-ir-titanium-ir-laser-sight-w-qd-picatinny-rail-mount-le117-ir Budget - mostly positive reviews on holding zero and minimal shift if you’re not beating on it. https://smslaser.com/products/trinity?srsltid=AfmBOoqEl5EP8Adu0IjcPxLyQ76HJke5K50h_DGL-y7hIO8hSWC108R8 |
3eir DIR-ONE-VIS is an American made laser that has an American made pricetag. Ultra-low profile too.  Otherwise Holosun ls117 or le117 is your jam for cheaper. |

They were $19 each, but they are on a pair of 22LR's and a pair of air-softs. |

The most affordable vis laser is to not buy one. Vis lasers really don't offer you anything. They are fun to play with around the house which can lead to the idea that they might be a viable aiming option. But anyone can tell you that just zeroing the vis part of an IR laser at the range is kind of a nightmare. They are very hard to track and shoot well, a red dot is much easier and more useful. So don't buy one. Or just buy a cheapo off Amazon to see what I mean |
