I purchased a Shaft just before the development change. I find that the change has neutered the shaft by adding the laser beam. The shaft is best suited for "camping" and sniping. The purpose of sniping is to demoralize the opposing enemy while gaining very valuable intelligence. I understand that the adding of the laser was to give the would be victim a halfway fighting chance. But, I think I would rather see the developers do away with the laser beam and rather have red dot show on the target as a better solution. Any thoughts?
