AN/PEQ-2 Laser

The AN/PEQ-2 is an infrared laser aiming, illumination and pointer device that is attached to various weapons carried by US Special Operations Forces (SOF).

PEQ-2s produce light that can only be seen by wearing night vision goggles (nvgs). The device features 2 lasers, one with a narrow beam which is used for aiming the weapon or as a pointer for indicating targets to others, and one with a wider beam that is used as a flashlight for illuminting an area.
