I bought this dual unit several years ago from SK Industries, and I have been very happy with it.

It is a dual Vis/IR unit with one head Vis and the other IR.  You switch between heads with a switch on the back of the unit, and it is activated with a pressure pad.  I need a mount at the moment, so it has been side-lined for a bit.  

I have never seen these units discussed here, so I thought I would throw mine out there and see if anyone else owned one and what they thought of theirs.

I don't know what their current prices are.  I bought this one about 3 years ago.

Cool unit.
How does it adjust?(elevation&windage)
Does it hold zero?

It is adjusted with allen screws.  Each square, laser head sits on a rubber pad and has an allen screw at each corner.  You adjust it with those screws.

It takes a bit to dial it in, but it holds fine when you get it there.  I don't know how well it would hold up in combat though.

I have only mounted and used it once with my 6015 with live fire and it held zero fine.  Since then I have not had an opportunity to use it; besides just playing in the back yard with the 6015.

Here is another unit I do use with live fire a lot though.  It is also from SK Industries, and you can see how they adjust with the allen screws.  It is only a visible laser unit, but it would be a blast in IR with a head-mounted NVD.  It mounts in the end of the cocking tube on this AOW-registered SP89.  The switch and battery unit are sealed inside the fore-grip.

I am working on modifying the case so the laser can be activated from the briefcase handle...but who knows if it will work...http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b109/Gewehr1/HPIM0300.jpg

The IR units they sell are very nice though, and they are a good company to work with and have a lifetime warranty.  

Just thought I would mention it, since choices in IR lasers are fairly limited.

So, what did you pay for the IR/Visable unit?

I don't know what's up with SK, but he took me for $300 bucks. I did notice that before he got my money, he was 'screening' his calls; he'd answer the phone after he figured out I was a potential customer.  Once he got my cash, he didn't answer any more.

This guy is a thief.

I don't remember exactly; it was 3 years ago.   I believe I paid $800 total for the unit.

I don't know about them ripping anyone off.  They have always been honest with me.

Did you order something and they failed to deliver it?  If so, then I must agree with you.

Ordered, and paid in full.
