    The company is owned by BSA optics.

    Do you work for them?

    If not, and you want to know more, you could try contacting them yourself with questions.

    Being owned by BSA optics does not speak to quality.

    The parent company to BSA is Gammo and you should not let either name affect your opinion of the products coming from Laser Genetics.

    We have one in our possession and it is amazing. It works just as advertised. It is a laser combined with an optic. You can focus the laser like a Maglite except it reaches targets 500 yards and beyond.

    We did side by side test with a PVS-14 and the Laser Genetics using the same day optic (Leupold CQ/T) and the difference in the detail of your view is not even remotely close. The Laser illuminated view is hands down superior, so superior that it is not even debatable.

    Of course it does have it's downside, which is the fact that what ever you are aiming it at can clearly see where the source is coming from and the area all around the object you are aiming at will be illuminated. No big deal for four legged varmints.

    We are extremely impressed with this new technology and the quality of the product. They claim production units will be available in July but I think late August is more realistic.

    Well to be clear, both BSA and BSA-optics (they're separate companies) are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Gamo. Laser Genetics, is (apparently) a wholly owned subsidiary of BSA-optics.

    So in short, Gamo owns BSA optics, and BSA optics owns Laser Genetics.

    As you say, the fact that BSA-optics owns this company doesn't necessarily mean anything with respect to the quality of its products. BSA makes many products, some better than others.

    I don't know the history of Laser-Genetics, but it may have been deliberately formed as a subsidiary of BSA-optics for liability reasons. (IE lasers have liability). Alternatively, it may have been an entirely separate company bought out by BSA.

    Riflescopes.com?

    Curiously, it seems that you are already a laser genetics distributor as you are already selling at least one Laser Genetics product on your website, to wit:

    Is this the product you are talking about?

    Yes that is the product. We are accepting pre-orders as the production models won't be available until Aug. and they will be allocated. The interest has been so great that we wanted to allow people to get in line, so to speak.

    It is not just a laser, it is a laser combined with an optic. You can focus the beam much like a flashlight except this one illuminates targets hundreds of yards away. There is also no ambient light like a flashlight emits. The only thing illuminated is what the laser hits. Everything between the device and the target remains dark. It is really hard to explain how unique this product it without seeing it operate first hand. We are going to try to film it in use and upload it to to YouTube.

    It comes with a mount that attaches it to your scope and the mount has windage and elevation adjustments.

    You are saying there is no red beam between the source and where it hits? Is the red laser glow visible from the place where the red spot hits? What is the spot diameter at 100 or 200 yerds?

    It uses a green laser and you can only see the laser if it comes into contact with an object. The diameter of the "spot' is adjustable and I do not have those specs yet. From playing with one I would say you could very easily illuminate an entire vehicle at 100 yards and if you focused the bean down you could more brightly illuminate an area smaller than a frisbee.
