Hello, my first post here.

I'm in southeast Arizona, and carry a NAA Black Widow for my walks with dogs in the foothills not too far from my house.  We run into rattle snakes fairly regularly here, even in the suburbs.

Anyway, wanted to check into whether it's possible to change (or offer as an additional option) the laser offerings (grip and the lug setup under the barrel) from a 5 milliwatt (mw) red to a green?  The 5mw red laser is pretty standard fare for pistol lasers but as most people find out with use, it's useless in daylight at a range of more than 10', and only moderately useful at dusk.  The green however is visible at a reasonable distance during daylight and better at dusk.  There is a difference in the price for green lasers but at 5 mw, it's not significant. 

Thanks!

John,

Agree that Red is fairly useless in day light, but, the iron sights are sufficient for varmits at 10' or less.  Both kinds, with legs and without.

A load of CCI shot in 22 Mag is sufficient to deter any varmit.  I've added LaserLyte lasers to my Mini's and they provide great see at dusk and excellent at night. Might I suggest to add the LaserLyte, load up with CCI shot, and stroll with confidence.

Some have reported trouble.  I've ordered two and have had zero issues.  First, remove the batteries (both of mine came with batteries installed). Install the laser side first, and ensure you line up properly, then squeeze to set the grip.  Do the same on the opposite side, install the screw, then the batteries, and you're kookin' with gas!

Good luck - oh, and if you can convince the laser boys to use green in these itty bitty Guns, let us all know pronto!

Thanks - Mr.Ed
