I would also like to figure out how to wire one with the gun function so when you are activating the gun motor the laser is on to locate the target, Right now I have one secured to my barrel It would be nice to have one hidden inside the tank.

Connect it too the wires that are hooked up to your safety LED, that is already wired into you gun! Depending on the volatage needed, you probably do not have to even add a resistor! If not enough power remove the resistor that is in line by the gun cut off switch!
