| would your lights/ lasers and Optics still work if we had a D day EMP? I would think so. thoughts? |
| They are to simple to be taken out by an EMP. Also remember the the pulse is line of sight and for things on the grid. which your lights and lasers should not be. SO even if you have a smart phone controlled predator scope its nice and safe unplugged inside a safe. |

Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Yes, they will work. Yup. Any EMP strong enough to kill a flashlight/laser/etc. would probably melt you in the process. So for those who dont know any better COD is full of shit when the EMP knocks out your ACOG Here's the short list on EMP facts and myths. 1. EMP isn't going to come from a terrorist, for several reasons. It will require a nation state with significant resources. And as such would make itself a target for retaliation. 2. EMP requires an "antenna" for it to damage something. Something like power lines. Battery powered stuff that's not plugged in, or even cars are not likely to be damaged. 3. EMP is highly unreliable to make/control/predict. 4. EMP does not violate the laws of physics. The inverse square law still applies. 5. Yes, other things can produce EMP. The only man made source is nukes. A major solar flare could theoretically cause similar damage. This is improbable, however, as our systems are protected against it fairly well.
