Nice comparison video. Best comparison video out on the fl5. I picked one up about a month ago but run across a dbal d2 with unity axon switch and villain weapon system diffuser for FL5 money, so I'm thinking about selling my FL5. I dont really want to, because it's a solid performer but I don't need two LAM's
Thanks for the comparison. I'm looking for a one-package do-it-all which includes white light. In your opinion, would you go for a Holosun LS421 or the Laserspeed LS FL-5? I found the LS421 for 670 shipped. I would like to be able to see at least 100 yards. Don't care about 500 yards stuff and the more budget the better. I heard about the upcoming Holosun Iris and wasn't sure if it's worth waiting for especially the fact that it's 800 and it does not have a white light built-in like the above 2 I mentioned. I'm also looking for build quality and reliability on 556. Thanks a lot for any insights.
I would probably go with Holosun. To my knowledge, laser, speed discontinued that model, and it’s being rebranded and distributed by a different company.
@Victor-tc3de I don’t think they’re fake. I just think they are either old stock or possibly the new rebranded version from whoever is reselling them. If I’m not mistaken, laser speed is coming out with a completely new laser that’s going to replace that model. That might be something to keep an eye out for.

@C4Armory I didn't even know that. So I'm guessing the ones sold on ebay are also fake and not made by Laserspeed.

I'm going to be reviewing their new FL5 with the updated pressure pad plug pretty soon. Just waiting for them to ship it to me.
Is the fl5 still in rotation? I got about 2k rounds on mine its still chugging along fingers crossed lol nice comparison
Thanks. Yea I am still running it.
Don't really care about NV, just want a vis laser that's more than 5mw
Goofy goober.
I took from this that the somogear is the best bang for your buck being only $200minus the flashlight.
For a .22 or maybe a 9mm carbine sure. I wouldn’t trust a somo for much more than that or anything I would wager my life on.
