Crimson Trace

[Old Draftsman]

From what I've seen at the local outdoor range, the lasers that could be readily seen on the targets, amplified the "geezer shake" to the point of distraction. I don't want one myself (don't need the bad guy to see how bad I'm shaking ) cause it's distracting. It may be different under duress but I think the night sight on a silhouette is better for me.

Now at home. The Mossberg don't need no stinkin' sights...

Personally, the best use I've found for a laser sight here is off the piece and used to exercise my dogs. They love to chase the dot.

They don't work for left handed folks either. I had a set and liked them for the cool factor but that is about it. Very hard to use if your left handed though...got rid of em and working on my shooting instead or using them as a crutch...

I looked at em, but kinda figured it would be a dead giveaway to my whereabouts, in a real shootout. Plus I'm a tightwad, $300.00 bucks is a little steep for me, one reason I buy paper micarta grips, over real Ivory!

Here's my thoughts.
The better half and I keep our UC II's on our night stands. For a quick response when your half asleep, I think they're the ticket.
Outside in bright light nearly useless, not worth the money.
I've got a set on the LCP, but don't carry it much at all after adding the P238 as my EDC.

Be safe

I have them on my LCP, M&P 9c, Colt Defender Plus and Colt New Agent. I think they really help my shooting accuracy and sight acquisition . But just like any other tool , if they help your shooting -they're great if they don't -they just an expensive cat toy

If you ever get a chance to receive training with CT's and a light you will see how much faster and accurate you are in less than great lighting.

If you know how to use them right they make a world of difference

I agree with Alan. I have an older friend who poopoo's every new thing. He tried mine and then understood how important they are in a SD situation. Particularly if youve been knocked to the ground and are having to draw from there. The weapon never comes-up to you eye level.
