Actually, I've seen the spot of light dancing around the target. It's not like on the TV where the little spot appears and holds nice and steady. I think it must be embarassing for the owner to know his spot of light is dancing all over the target, 'cause the laser gets used for only a few seconds and then never brightens our day again. It is a good training tool and you don't even need to load the gun or go to the range. ;-) I am not sure how good they are in a serious social situation tho. I have a laser for my KP90 but I took it off and put it away. It was just a distraction. Yeah, a couple of my handguns have lasers on them. Initially I tried the lasers but never use them now. Batteries are probably dead. I have a pretty expensive laser device for lining up scopes and barrels*, but I don't know why I'd want a laser pointer permanently or semi-permanently mounted on a handgun. If you don't practice enough and can't hit a human-sized target with a handgun in or near the center of body mass between a couple of feet away and say 50 feet, you probably shouldn't be depending on a handgun. I tend to agree. The only case I have seen that makes sense is if you were firing from cover and could not get a decent sight picture but as you say, that is such a remote thing it is not worth buying batteries for. The training mode on the laserlyte does look interesting tho. I have a CO2 version of my P90 that seems to be a decent practice gun and I have a safe place out back to use it. I am still working my way through a big box of cylinders I bought a while ago for around 30 cents each. I am not sure how many shots you get but I am usually tired of shooting before it gives out. |
