G0V3RNM3NT4L 132 Posted July 16, 2012 I've recently acquired an M4A3 CCO. The wiki says it has both a laser designator and a flashlight built in.Does anybody know which commands operate which function? I'd love to have this as the main weapon for my squad's support gunner, as it would be versatile for targeting and night operations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heineken (DayZ) 15 Posted July 16, 2012 L is the default key for flash lights. The laser designatior serves no purpose in Dayz though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LukeSkywalkers 31 Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) Hmm I only know that you can activate the flashlight with "L", but it is sometimes buggy.I have sometimes trouble with activating the flashlight. Also a flashlight in the night in the middle of a town is no good idea, but I think you already know that... Edited July 16, 2012 by Labargoth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I play on a foreign server so every time I play with my friends it's night and we do night ops.Once you see a target, suddenly shining a flashlight can be a good way of scaring them.

Food 309 Posted July 16, 2012 L is the default key for flash lights. The laser designatior serves no purpose in Dayz though.Actually the L85 has a laser, but it's only visible through NV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G0V3RNM3NT4L 132 Posted July 16, 2012 I think the Glock does too... not sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Markedgun 15 Posted July 16, 2012 As far as I know you can't have both a flashlight and a laser sight. But if you had no flashlight and only the laser you would just press L. But it is only visual on NVGs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It won't work at all when it's day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingochaos 131 Posted July 16, 2012 The M16A4 ACOG also has an irad(laser pointer.. infra red aiming device)... they do work with nvgs, great for target indication(say a spotter with l85 and sniper with DMR) Or just pointing to areas o interest... so long as you are all NVGed up.

It was night time, pitch black and I was sitting in an appartment trying to turn the flashlight on so I can find the loot...
