Green laser designators for hunting

[vjanda]

Has anyone tried out something similar to this:
Laser Link

I'd be very interested to hear your views as I need such a designator for wild boar hunting.
- can it withstand the recoil?
- how do boar react to it?
- what's its range?

Thanks :beer:

This is probably a better question asked on a hunting forum.
Although there are some gun owners here (including myself), we're generally more on the tech side of things.

A few things though...
I'm assuming this would be for night hunting? If so, I know for a lot of places night hunting is illegal, so that makes it harder to get answers.
Also, generally speaking, higher powered lasers don't take well to firearm recoil. So I can't see this thing being very bright. But that's just a guess.
If it were me, I'd look more into some sort of IR type of floodlight, with night vision goggles. Way more expensive! But it would give you a better idea of what you were actually looking at. Which is better for both safety, and more successful hunting.
