I have an extremely rare, lightly used L3/Eotech Next Generation Aiming Laser (NGAL). This was sold to me by a trusted vendor I know, who had multiple former demo units, that he was able to keep.
As this was a demo unit straight from an OEM rep, it came with no manual, or box. I currently have one of the difficult to find original tape switches on order, that should hopefully arrive soon, and the vendor is providing me a copy of his invoice for the unit providing proof of its origins. These are very very difficult to come by, and most of our armed services haven't had their hands on one. It certainly lived up to the hype though.
First of all, this thing is TINY. It's no joke when they claim it's the size of a credit card. It's 40% lighter than the PEQ-15/LA5, an inch shorter, and significantly thinner and lower to the rail. Besides it's size, the functions are almost identical to a full power PEQ-15/LA-5, with a couple exemptions. The power is significantly higher than the standard FP PEQ-15, and even higher than the HP LA-5B, with only the UHP LA-5C outperforming the NGAL in power (the LA-5C is a monster). The illuminator is also an improvement over the AN/PEQ-15 and LA-5B, due to the use of an advanced illuminator design to achieve a more uniform illumination beam, reminiscent of the MAWL-C1, but even cleaner IMO. It also allows for easy illumination beam adjustment, with a dial located on the rear of the device, enabling easy and precise adjustments from the shooting position.
I could keep going on about this device, but I think you got the point haha. This is hands down the best LAM I have ever used, and I'm somewhat reluctant to sell it. If I didn't need the funds elsewhere, I'd certainly keep it, especially considering how rare they are, but for my needs, it's just more than I really need.
I've seen these go for insane prices of up to $12,000, which is just ridiculous. I'm not trying to make a profit, just recoup as much of my cost as possible. Will's Optics seems to be one of the only places I've seen other used ones available right now, and they have them for about $8000, which is the best price I've seen yet. Brand new to authorized Mil/LE (that can get their hands on them) they are around $4000.
It's definitely a pricey item, but for the best LAM on the market, and probably one of the rarest, I figured someone might be interested. If not, I'll probably end up selling my MAWL instead, but I thought I'd put this out there first.
I'm asking $7,000 shipped obo, and I'll include the tape switch, when it comes in. I'm willing to negotiate, so please don't be afraid to send an offer, or any questions. My main goal is to fund some new projects, but I may consider partial trades. Some things I may be interested in: CA legal/registered AR pistols/lowers, Elcan SpecterDR 1-4x 5.56, HK416 clone or parts for a clone build, or a partial trade toward a PVS-31A, with cash on my side.

Here's additional info, for those interested in learning more about SOCOM's new LAM. I am located in San Diego, and I'm willing come to meet anywhere within reason, which is almost anywhere is SoCal.
