Laser sights - Crimson Trace

I have a Laser-Max on my SA XD45, it replaces the guide rod so there is no sighting in the laser. I think it is dead-on. You hit exactly where the red dot is. Trick is, to keep the red dot still. It really shows you how much your hand is moving around. Laser-Max is excellent quality well made and improves my groups.
 
the thing that is great about the laser max and the crimson trace is that you don't have to get any new holsters. the devices mentioned don't add any size to the outside dimensions of the pistol.

laser devices are great, i use them for dry fire practice, and equie guns with them for my wife when i am deoyed or otherwise gone so that she will be able to make accuarte shots while holding one of our kids, the phone, from in the bed etc.

i prefer the crimson trace grips they are adjustable and user friendy just put them on a battery in em and go to town.

the laser max's are nice, i like how the laser pulsates, that makes it easy to ick up in any light and allows you to track it easily.

i have used both one several guns, and i prefer the ct grips, as long as they don't add to much size to the grips as i have small hands.

i have never had an issue or a negative coment to make about the ct grips. the only thing with the laser max that i have seen is that in my dad's glock 19 and with his reloads, of the loads weren't able to cycle the slide competely, which was easily fixed, but that is the one and only issue that i have seen with them, but with factory ammo they were good to go.
 
I love them. The gun they are on is my wife's j frame 38 special. The only time she would really use that gun is low light or night time. The rest of the time she would just use the 1911 or the USP-40. As far as using it in the daylight, at close range with a 2" barrel it is a point and shoot gun anyway (using the sights). You should not train with only one or the other, but use both. If they cannot see the sights, then use the laser. If they can see the sights, then use them. I know it has built up her confidence in shooting and enjoyment. She really loves to go to the range with me more and likes to double check the "accuracy" of her laser every chance she can get! Best of all it is just plain fun!!!!
 
I have the CT laser grips on my Beretta 92FS. The CT lasers are bad to the bone. At 50' I can put 15 rounds in a 4" to 5" grouping. All of 15 rounds firing pretty quick.

When the red dot is on the bulls eye fire the weapon. Don't hesitate or that red dot goes all over the place :)

My wife has a set on her Taurus ultralight 38 special pistol.

I'm getting a set for my Tomcat. :)
 
Someone above asked, What do you people do during the day when it's bright outside and a laser is literally impossible to see in the sunlight?

As I had said before he asked that question, I practice fifty percent iron sights and fifty percent lasers at the range. And both ways benefit from doing it.

Stick your toe in the water, fella -- try one. And once you get past how shockingly unsteady you are, flinging that red dot all over the place, you will benefit from buying one.

Cordially, Jack

Me, I just use the iron sights.

The laser is for use in low light and darkness.
Iron sights are for daylight.
They are two different tools that you should learn to use equally well.
