Rifle Laser - Seals and Terrorists

The rifle laser has two effects in game. The first effect is adding a red dot in the center of your crosshairs. The second effect is increasing rifle accuracy. My personal tests have shown that a Rifle Laser does not increase accuracy as much as the front grip (hence the reason the front grip is unlockable), but the effects of the rifle laser and front grip stack, and create very accurate weapons. Sometimes the rifle laser will glitch and make your red dot take nearly the whole screen. If this happens, your disc or laser needs cleaning.

Good For: Gunfighting
Effective When Used With: Front Grip

I hope this helps you out to some degree.

The laser increases guns accuracy less than the front grip but increases the players accuracy dramatically and also the opposing player cant see it.

I like to use the laser on close range maps, for me it seems to not do so well on any thing even close to a distance map. But i dont use it that much beings as im always using the front grip instead. Rifle laser is a waist of time if u have the front grip.

Yeah I dont know why in the description it says that it gives away your location.You cant see it either way.I think that its good on guns that cannot use the front grip.I would much rather have a silencer with either the front grip or laser.Than no silencer and both.But I think its just a personal preference its nice to have the dot but the front grip does stabalize recoil pretty well.

Personally i think the rifle laser is better than the front grip. It helps me aim for long range gun fights and works out better. Also for some reason, I spray more w/ hte front grip...perhaps it's because of the small crosshairs. It's all personal preference so yea...

If i had to choose between the Front Grip and a Rifle Laser though i would definitely go with the front grip. Just better all around accuracy then the laser, just my opinion.

Rifle lasers increase your accuracy. It puts a red dot in the middle of the screen so you know exactly where youre aiming. Plus, its a bit hard to see that tiny yellow dot on some small tvs.

The first couple shots you take when you have a rifle laser will almost always be dead on accurate. That's probably the only good thing about it..

Knowing where you're aiming is pointless, for one, the "tiny yellow dot" isn't hard to see(I have one of the worst TVs out there and I see it fine), secondly, none of the guns are accurate or close to being accurate so you're chances of actually killing people when you have your crosshairs on them are low..

Does the front grip/rifle laser combo make it really accurate? Yes, but only when the person is directly in front of you. Any farther than that and your bullets spray..too much.
