All my defensive pistols have a laser or laser/light combo. IMO lasers are for worst case scenarios. Case in point; I wear glasses and contact lenses. With out my glasses or contacts I have a hard time seeing the open sights on my pistols clearly but, I can see the dot of a laser. What if I loose a contact in a struggle or something goes bump in the night and I only have enough time to grab my pistol?
Just for the record, with out my glasses or contacts I can see well enough to identify friend or foe with proper illumination. Hence why my "bed side" pistol, a HK45, has a Surefire X400 light laser combo.
I’m a firm believer that lasers should not be used as a substitute for trigger time. I rarely use my lasers at the range. When I do it is mainly to check the zero of the laser. I do dry fire practice with my lasers at home so the muscle memory is there when needed.
