Biggest issue I see is getting the lasers perfectly parallel. Laser pointers aren't very precisely mounted in their housings so you'll probably need some feature for individually aligning each laser to be parallel. Out of parallel lasers will diverge and make wierd isosceles patterns.

It could be a neat feature to point each laser inwards slightly so that they meet at a certain distance (say where the bb arcs downwards through an RDS aimpoint). Then you could get some sort of idea of range based on the visible pattern with reference to a targets shoulderwidth.

And you could make pretend "laser" sounds when you shoot too: "NEENER NEENEER NEENEEER!"
