Q:

This Laser Sucks

I bought a BSA Varmint Laser/Flashlight (it mounts on the scope, not a rail) and the screws were stripped. I exchanged it, and the screws stripped. Now I hate the screws, and I realized the design is poor. I’d like to go with a laser and flashlight separately. There was a BSA laser that mounts to the rail http://www.bsaoptics.com//product.aspx?product=101 .

What would be a good choice for a flashlight? I’m trying to keep the whole deal at $50.

No, you will need one of these too. Any hunting/sporting shop will stock them usually.

I probably was over-tightening it, but those screws are still crappy. I can easily tighten my scope mount screws that much. I just might get that one triggerman pointed me to.

You werent over tightening it were you ?

I had one and it was pretty good on my Gamo Varmint Hunter (Shadow with the laser/flashlight combo).

Probably not the strongest alloy, but so long as you dont over tighten it will hold up fine on a springer, so should have no problem on a PCP.
