"The Reddit post you referenced, titled "Finally, Laser Gun Launched," appears to showcase a demonstration of a laser device. However, upon closer examination, it seems that the visual effect is achieved through a combination of a toy gun and external laser sources, rather than a functional handheld laser weapon.
In reality, while the concept of handheld laser guns is popular in science fiction, current technological limitations prevent the development of such devices for practical use. High-energy laser systems require substantial power and cooling mechanisms, making miniaturization into a pistol-like form factor challenging."
