Well for my next trick, I just happened to have this laser laying around....
So I'm going to investigate how to integrate a laser sighting system into one side. While I could use the laser diode I have, I think I'm going to just use it for testing, and find a source for a prebuilt diode with lens that I can install into a new custom grip with an area molded into it for the sighting (much like a crimson trace I suppose). The electrical part is quite simple actually, just two wires and a small switch (which I'll need to source, as the one I have doesn't click on).
From my preliminary investigation, this should not be horribly hard to engineer. I'm sure it will take me some time and plenty of fiddling though.
