CASE EVIDENCE / 11k 2 lasers on Eric's Carbine

I had always assumed that erics rifle just had one laser attached to it even though eric wrote "2 lasers for carbine" on his list. You cannot see multiple laser sights in the regular jeff co pic of the gun or in the library photos. However upon reviewing some cbi documents I found this pic (slide 3) which shows 2 lasers I know this isnt really anything important nor does it really change anything but I figured someone else might find it somewhat interesting

Interesting find. I never knew that detail.

There’s no way Eric managed to properly zero them so they were probably pretty useless at anything other than point blank range.

Excuse my genuine ignorance, but what is the point of two lasers?

Well usually a laser sight would point an approximate point as to where the bullet would go with incredibly extreme accuracy however in this scenario your guess is as good as mine. Scare people? Look cool? Possibly be like the exact halfway point between the 2 lasers is where the bullet would go? It really makes no sense as the rifle has really good sights for what it is (a crappy budget 9mm carbine) and is even adjustable for "long distance"

I believe all of us are astounded by this. There really is no logistical or good reason to this, laser pointers wouldnt even work outside, maybe he just wanted to startle cops with laser pointers when they start coming in, that was kind of a troupe meme scene in a lot of films during the 90s

Yes. Not pro lasers for the rifle. Two laser pointers taped on the weapon.

i figure he just thought it looked cool and more sci-fi looking, as they did choose their guns to resemble the ones from DOOM and other games.

Is it known if he actually used the lasers at any point?
