Combine Laser and Flashlight Attachment

[Douglas]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Add/combine both the laser and flashlight attachment into one and charge a fancy price for it (People will buy).

How it would work:
If you turn on the flashlight, the laser will turn off. If you turn off the flashlight, the laser will turn on.

Process diagram:


Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
There has been suggestions to modify the steep price of the two, but I don't believe anything combining them.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
Not needing to switch to a less preferred weapon with each attachment. (Example: Rifle w/ laser & Pistol w/ flashlight)
Be tactically prepared for power outages while looking cool with the laser.
Little to no balancing issues.
Short dev time.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
The bankruptcy of single feature attachment manufacturers.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
I believe this should be accepted as it's been something wanted by the community, and wouldn't require any major development time. Small quality of life change that I know everyone will invest in without balancing issues.

W, flashlight is so needed when the rare blackout happens, but having a dedicated gun for it or hot swapping feels silly

How it would work:
If you turn on the flashlight, the laser will turn off. If you turn off the flashlight, the laser will turn on.

...Shouldn't it cycle between the states of Off, Laser & Light? But yes, PEQ boxes are a thing. I vaguely recall a past suggestion for PEQ boxes and it being denied, but I forget why.

+Support.

EDIT: ...It occurs to me that this is not actually what PEQ boxes do. I don't care, you get the idea, anyway.

I do like that you need to choose between wanting a laser to look cool sure or a flashlight when the lights turn off when you are fighting. the choices matter and will impact combat in a certain situation ( CI turning off lights or random )

But yeah would be nice thing to have

Its is know that us military tend to have both laser and flash light attachment on their assign weapon and can carry more then one utility attachment so it would make sense for foundation to give guard the best of the best weapons.

+ Support will make life far easier in situations where power goes out and doesn't force us to choose between being blind or better hipfire accuracy

make it a seperate attachment that costs 15 or 20k

Would make low-light engagements for combatives less frustrating by not having to carry 2 rifles to swap between each attachment.
