Product description
Somogear PEQ-2A Retro Build IR Laser Illuminator with PCB Potting Service
The Somogear PEQ-2A Retro Build is a faithful recreation of the classic PEQ-2A infrared aiming laser and illuminator, beloved by airsoft players and MilSim enthusiasts for its authentic 1990s–2000s GWOT-era appearance and practical performance.
This IR-only tactical laser designator delivers a powerful combination of a precise IR aiming laser and a strong, focusable IR illuminator, making it an excellent choice for low-light and night vision airsoft games. The added PCB Potting Service significantly improves durability and resistance to recoil, moisture, and impact — highly recommended for serious players.
Key Features
- Dual IR System: Independent IR laser (aiming) and IR illuminator with separate low and high power modes.
- Focusable IR Illuminator: 288° rotating focus ring with diffuser cover, adjustable from tight spot to wide flood (max flood beam diameter ≈ 3.0 metres at 30 metres).
- Zeroable Design: The IR aiming laser can be precisely zeroed to your rifle.
- Authentic Retro Build: Durable polyamide housing with floating fibre construction and a prototype-style mode selector with realistic hand-feeling.
- Enhanced Durability: PCB potting service applied for extra protection against shock, vibration, and field conditions.
