Seems like the laser light might be a good route.

The first thing to understand about steadiness is that no one else is
steady either. You have to work around it and try for brief moments
when you can squeeze off the round.
The laser gimmick will make you an accurate, steady shooter with...the
laser gimmick.
I see it more as a tool to improve your front sight shooting (point
and shoot), not any kind of slow fire training.
A regular laser sight will show you how steady you are holding the
gun.
Something like this will help with rapid target acquisition but there
is no training for follow up shots except actually shooting full power
ammo.
I'd still like to know how the laser is aligned. If it's off axis by a
tiny amount within the laser cartridge housing, it could be off by a
foot at 25 feet. Do you align the laser to the gun sight or the gun
sight to the laser?
If you take a 4 inch barrel and a known caliber, you should be able to
calculate how far off the laser could be and still be able to project
onto a target 25 feet away without being blocked by the barrel. I doubt
it could be off by a foot at 25 feet..
