Is there any use case for a laser sight on a edc pistol?I think they're really cool but if they have no purpose then having one would just be larping
>>65385963>on a edc pistol?ehhhh, I personally find it hard to justify.>On a nightstand gunMight be legitimately useful
>>65385969I recall Forgotten Weapons saying he has a silencer and red dot or holographic sight on his bedside pistol-a Maxim 9 if i recall
>>65385969i have a laser on my nightstand pistol but its because my vision sucks and i cant focus on a dot or irons without my glasses, between the laser and point shooting i feel like id be fine in case i couldnt get my glasses on for some reason
I got a flashlight and a green laser on my maverick for hd.I didn't even zero the laser. Only lined up with the sights.Don't need accuracy with buckballs
>>65385963>Is there any use case for a laser sight on a edc pistol?Before red dots were popular, people used night sights and before night sights people would use lasers to help them point shoot. The technique was to keep you laser and light off until the target presented itself, turn it on as you shoot (to easily point-shoot and blind your target a bit) and then turn it back off Before this laser light combo, there was an even older technique where people would shoot at their target and use the muzzle flash to aim and/or point the next shot that would be way more accurate.
>>65386006You don't want to be fucking around trying to find ironsights when an uninvited African American guest enters your bedroom, especially since there's potentially a risk of hitting other people-
>>65385963>Is there any use case for a laser sight on a edc pistol?Yes, ritardo. Point shooting.
>>65386006Why do you have a pistol setup for home defense? An AR-15 is the far better choice, plus bunkering in your room and calling the cops>>65386158The laser light technique sounds very cool, I didn't know about that>>65386207Why would you need a laser to point shoot when you're only doing it at point shooting distances? I was asking if a laser sight lets you do anything you can't without it
>>65385963I'm blind as fuck without my glasses. My nightstand pistol has a simple grip laser because I can see well enough to flash a target for ID but I legitimately can't read the sights at arm's length. >>65386487>Why do you have a pistol setup for home defense? An AR-15 is the far better choice, plus bunkering in your room and calling the copsI live in a ban state, in a city where cops have been repeatedly busted trafficking evidence guns, inside a cramped house with 5 corners between my bed and the door, and more than 10 minutes from the nearest cop-shack. I also have a kid, so my hardware has to be extremely positively locked up. It was much easier and more comfortable to build a pistol safe into my bed than try to sleep on my rifle or secure a wall locker in arm's reach.>I was asking if a laser sight lets you do anything you can't without itTheoretically? No.Practically? It gives you a *much* clearer idea of where your first bullet is going to go in the fractions of a second you have to decide whether or not you're going to pull the trigger. It'll tell you when your follow-up is back on target. When you're shooting naked and half-blind in the dark in the middle of the fucking night while not tripping over your retarded pets/children and wrangling a strobing light, you will absolutely appreciate the extra layer of reassurance. Point-shooting a couple inches off-plane may not make much of a difference to the upstanding local astrophysicist whose lungs are currently entering orbit, but it can make a hell of a lot of difference where the bullet winds up afterwards.
>>65385963I don't believe in the point shooting justifications, but I can say from personal experience that when a sketchy nigger sees a laser dot on their chest they lose their aggression and back away. It may be worthless as a weapon improvement but it's amazing for avoiding the paperwork that would come with using the weapon.
>>65385963>Is there any use case for a laser sight on a edc pistol?Night larping.
