Holosun IRIS-IR-1 IR Laser
The Holosun IRIS-IR1 is about as simple and streamlined as it gets for night vision aiming. It’s a dedicated IR laser—no visible laser, no illuminator—just a clean, reliable infrared aiming point for use under NVGs. The whole unit is compact, lightweight, and sits nice and low on your rail, so it doesn’t bulk out your setup. You’ve got a top-mounted fire button, rear controls, and a pressure pad included, so it’s easy to run however you like. If you already have an IR illuminator or just want the lightest possible NV aiming setup, this is a straightforward “does one job well” kind of unit.
