BEAMSHOT DIRL-GL The operator s sidekick INSTRUCTION MANUAL DIRL-GL Two-In-One Laser System 1 / 20 V1.0
IN COMBAT YOU ARE OPERATING ON THE RAZORS EDGE. Speed, Accuracy and Dependability are more than just words on paper. They are the difference between Life and Death. Between Success and Failure. You have trained to be the best, you need equipment that matches up. You need a sighting device that meets, and surpasses the current specification for the An-PEQ2 The DIRL-GL gives you that extra edge needed for mission success. It is equipped with IR and Visible Green laser sighting systems that allow you to quickly and accurately lock on a target in seconds. The DIRL-GL allows you to seamlessly switch between covert nighttime operations, using night vision equipment, to hard hitting forceful entries that utilize our visible Green laser. The DIRL-GL is small, lightweight and durable. It will stand up to both hot and near-freezing temperatures. Moreover, it can withstand the recoil of high caliber rifles and automatic weapons. It is made of highly durable aircraft aluminum and is water resistance. The windage and elevation adjustments for the IR and Visible lasers are efficiently controlled by one mechanism saving valuable time. The DIRL-GL is the operator s sidekick. 2 / 20 V1.0

DANGER CLASS IIIa LASER PRODUCT (Visible Laser) Laser radiation when open. AVOID DIRECT EYE EXPOSURE. DANGER Do not stare into the laser beams or laser aperture. Do not point the laser beams at the human eye. Do not point the laser beams at mirror-like surfaces. Do not look into the laser beams through binoculars or telescopes. 17 / 20 V1.0
4.5 Mounting Fig. 4 5 Using the integrated rail mounting system, the DIRL-GL can attach to a picatinny rail (either vertically or horizontally depending on rail access). Secure the unit by tightening the screws with a coin or slot screwdriver. 18 / 20 V1.0
4.6 Zeroing in Fig. 4-6 Turn the windage and elevation adjustments to align the laser dot to your iron sight as shown in Fig. 4-6. Each adjuster click will move the laser point by 2 cm at 25 meters (2/3 inch at 25 yards) To ensure your DIRL-GL Laser System is zeroed on your bullet trajectory at a certain distance, test at the shooting range. Ensure both the IR and Visible laser dots co-align with the iron sight & bullet impact. When you are adjusting the IR & Visible laser dots, the windage & elevation will adjust them together. They do not have independent adjustments as they are co-aligned. 19 / 20 V1.0
CHAPTER 5 BASIC MAINTENANCE 1. Make sure the power/function switch is on Power OFF position. 2. Keep the rubber Safety Cover closed.
