OK. I want a laser. I figure 98% + of my shooting is at an indoor range at 60 or less feet. I know green is brighter and clearer overall. But in the odd lighting and background of many targets which are often black, is there really much of a difference in this physical setting of one color over the other? I can't buy both - hoping to get some input FOR THIS ENVIRONMENT.
Thanks,

Green is a lot better overall. It takes a lot more battery life, which is why most companies have used red up to now. There has been some reported improvement in that area recently.
Well, maybe not so much-red is not as bright outside in the day time -and does not show up as well at night at distance either. the Green Monster is good, BUT, they are temperature sensitive like below 32F or above 104F they delay coming on if it matters to you.
I have both and prefer the Green since I live in the South and it ain't so cold here nor does it get really hot except in direct sunlight for most of the summer.
I really prefer the Green -battery life is supposed to be shorter but I have not really noticed this. Some red lasers have short battery
life !
The green is bright enough to almost light up your target in a real dark scenario(without the white light weapon light). Good stuff. Streamlight makes a beauty that I really like with the combo- I think it is a TL-2 G.
Just get the one you like ,but get a Good one--it is worth it. Crimson Trace are excellent also. This I know.
