American Rifleman's Brian Sheetz takes a look at Crimson Trace's LiNQ, a wireless green laser and white light sighting system for AR platformed rifles. To test its effectiveness, ARTV runs the LiNQ through the RockCastle Shooting Center, deep in the pitch-black caverns of Kentucky. Sound interesting? Check out this feature segment from a recent episode of American Rifleman TV to see more.
