A laser is great for low light when your sights are lost on a target or background. It's brighter than tritium and doesn't disappear like fiber optic in dim light. Plus, a laser is useful if sights are blurry, like it is for some folks in middle age and older.
Probably the biggest Con of using a laser is that everyone at the range can see your bobbling dot on your target, while you can't see their bobbling sights or red dot on their target.
One of the better Pros of using a laser is for dry fire practice. That laser bobble on a far wall is much more noticeable than a front sight or red dot bobble. It sure is useful for watching how your trigger stroke and trigger break are happening with your gun in your hand.
While lasers can be very useful, red dots have taken over the electronic dot on the target game. All the new guns with red dot mounting cuts on the slide are proof.
