Haven't put the money out. Also I prefer to use the sights provided on the firearm, but would like to try one for fun.

I do not want to relely on something that may not work in an emergency. I practice point of aim at least 3-4 times per week with each weapon that I carry. The only thing I rely on is myself.

I don't have a laser on any of my guns, it's easier to pinpoint your position from the other end of it. K.I.S.S.-either using sights or point shooting with or without uses less to go wrong.

Because most people won't even have time to turn a laser on when their adrenaline is pumping, much lest pay attention to the red dot...they will be concentrating on the individual breaking in.
