A green laser sight designed for compact and subcompact pistols, the NCStar AQPTLMG brings rapid target acquisition to close-quarters shooting and tactical training. This 5mW green laser operates at 532nm wavelength (Class IIIa), delivering a bright aiming point that's easier on the eyes than red in daylight and low-light conditions. The quick-release Weaver-style mount lets you attach and detach the unit without tools, making it practical for shooters who swap optics between guns or want backup systems ready to go.
Built from all-aluminum construction with a black anodized finish, the laser is compact enough for pocket carry and snappy enough for home defense or range work. At 3.3 ounces and just 2.6 inches long, it won't bloat your slide profile or throw off your grip. The ambidextrous on-off switch means left and right-handers can activate the laser without fumbling, and the fully adjustable windage and elevation let you dial in zero to match your point of aim. NCStar includes an adjustment tool, so you won't hunt for a random screwdriver.
The laser runs on a single CR2 lithium battery (included) and operates reliably between 59 and 95 degrees Fahrenheit, covering most North American hunting and shooting conditions. Runtime and durability depend on usage, but the CR2 format is inexpensive and widely available. For shooters training with compact pistols, building a quick-sighting backup system, or working low-light scenarios, this green laser is a straightforward, no-nonsense tool.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this green laser mount on my compact pistol's rail?
Yes, the NCStar uses a standard Weaver-style mount that fits any Weaver-compatible rail on compact and subcompact pistols. Double-check that your gun has a rail before ordering; if your frame doesn't have one, this laser won't attach without an aftermarket rail system.
How bright is the green laser dot compared to red?
Green light at 532nm is perceived as brighter by the human eye, especially in daylight and moderately lit environments. This makes the laser easier to spot and track without losing your sight picture, compared to typical red lasers in the same power class. In absolute darkness, brightness depends on the specific wavelength and power; in daytime, green gains a noticeable advantage.
What's included in the box?
The NCStar AQPTLMG ships with the laser sight, the quick-release Weaver mount, one CR2 lithium battery, and an adjustment tool for windage and elevation. Note: international orders ship without the battery due to shipping restrictions on lithium cells.
How long does the CR2 battery last?
Runtime depends on how often you activate the laser and how long you leave it on per session. CR2 batteries are affordable and widely available at drugstores and online, so replacing it when it wears out is simple and inexpensive.
