Laser Gun Sight

I'm trying to simulate a laser gun sight for my FPS. I tried using the method from the "Collision" example included with Irrlicht, but it sometimes sticks and it shakes alot. I was wondering if it was possible to do the same thing, just make it stay exactly in the center of the screen. I also need it to vary in size as the distance changes. Thanks in advance.

i think a transparrent one of these would be cool for a laser sight

for a dot...just have a billbord and a ray...use getCollisionFromRay() or what ever on you triangle sectors and then find the closest...that is then the point to put your billbord
