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..

it is 13.3875" for a .38/9mm (.357"/2 x75) give or take a land or
groove at the muzzle.

I've got a scope on my AR15/22 and it took me about a dozen shots to set
it up for 50 yards and then just a shot or two for 100 yards. I found it
trickier to sight in a scope than a red dot. Amazingly (well, I think it
is...), with the red dot I put on my Win '92, I was only an inch off at
50 yards with my first two shots. I'm shooting under 2" groups with my
HBAR AR on a bag at 100 yards and I think I can do better. I use my
cheap "tricked up" reader eyeglasses with my Ruger revolver and do
pretty good with it at up to 25 yards with the stock "iron" sights. I've
used up all my .38 Special rounds now, and won't be buying any more.
Strictly .357 MAG for the revolver and the Win .92 from now on.

I had a laser on my .45 and I took it off. It was more of a
distraction than a help.

I've seen a few lasers almost being used at the range. It's indoors,
so they're very easy to spot. The scenario has always been the same:
The laser hits the target, bounces all around and then goes out, never
to return. I think the user just gets embarrassed at how much movement
is showing up with the laser.
