Laser sight-good or bad and finding a holster! I open carry sig sp2022
Laser sight-good or bad and finding a holster! I open carry sig sp2022
A couple VA guys (me, naked, I can't remember who else) have Lasermax guiderod lasers. They are fantastic. After two or three boxes of cheapo ammo the soot film can be caked on enough to block the laser, but that's a nonstarter for defensive use, and only a mild inconvenience at the range for a quick wipe of a cloth (double-check for clear obviously) takes it right off for another 2-3 boxes of crap.i'm particularly fond of the lasermax guiderod lasers. If I could afford one, I'd have it now... but I am currently saving for one. No need for a special holster as it has no effect on the outward proportions of the gun.
Crimson Trace on my S&W J frame. I tried the lasermax guiderod on my SIG 229. Really cool but has to be turned on. Crimson Trace has a button in the grip that turns laser on when you hold the grip. That is why I favor Crimson Trace over Lasermax.
Heh... scroll up and look for the cute Chinese kid (me at 3). > )I've heard there is a Guide Rod Laser that works the same as the crimson trace ones do.
For the life of me I can't Remember who makes it though...
That's happened a lot, has it? Or is that just in theory?I love an enemy to use laser sights. Makes it easier to find them. Same with weapon lights. They turn on a light (mounted to the weapon), I shoot, situation resolved.
Agreed! Weapon lights make a nice center mass target. An accurate controlled pair puts the first roundin the light and the second in the upper chest. My friends and I setup this little experiment in the desert a few years ago...none of us use weapon lights anymore.I love an enemy to use laser sights. Makes it easier to find them.

In most cases, a weapon light is going to screw with one's rods. When working in low-light conidions, the eye has adjusted to it. When a 60-120 lumen light is shined towards the person, the eye has to adjust from low-light to a bright light condition. When the light receeds, the eye has to readjust back to low light conditions. It takes longer for the eye to adjust from bright light to low light, thus I'll disbelieve you're shoot at the light & the situation's resolved theory, especially if the one behind the light is properly trainined in fighting in low-light conditionsI love an enemy to use laser sights.
