    Well I don't have that specific laser, but I have a 5mw green laser on my ar15 and love it. I don't think that it would be great for night though because it is so bright it can light up a room. I found these reviews, customer ratings, and magazine reviews.

    Thanks Shooker 8 for your reply. I have read allot of the reviews. I am let say skeptical of reviews on the internetzzz. There are allot of people out there trying to make money. I was looking for a review from a trusted person on this sight. But, your information is valuable. Since this will be going on a home defense weapon.

    Yeah don't go cheap on the defense weapon. I like surefire lights and crimson trace personally.

    I don't have that laser, but I bought a 50mw green laser pointer last month and modified it, then installed on my rifle and love it very much.

    Looks like on optics planet it has some mixed reviews. i would say its not going to be all that great then.

    You could look at this - http://www.lasermax.com/product.php?id=127 and also look up on here what many think about mounting your light on your weapon.

    Also, what will you be mounting it to? AR? Pistol? makes a big difference.

    Remember this though, when it comes to lasers, cheap will get you cheap. Lights, not as much, but you do need to look for ones that protect the innards and are rated for the shock of recoil. I hear Primary Arms arent too shabby, and had one of their weapon lights mounted to an AK for a while to test it out, and it did decently. Stay away form NCStar, they are for airsoft, nothing else. I would also say the same of UTG... or just about anything made in China.
