    Laser Sight for a P95

    I like to put a laser sight on my P95 but don't put a ton of money into it.
    So what's my choices?

    Get some night sites. They're only about $100 and are IMHO better than a laser. They don't take batteries so that's one less thing to worry about. They also won't give your position away like a laser will if you accidentally turn it on when you're looking for the bad guy in your house.

      Not if you have bad eyes. Got one of those free lasers with a 2022. For brisk fire at short range they are the schizzle. I put it on the wife's pistol and really helps make her aware of just how much she waggles the muzzle around at the line. She's like Sergio Garcia standing over a fairway wood.

        I don't actually use the thing on a regular basis. None of my own guns have lasers on 'em but my HD pistol would if it had a rail. IMO they are far from useless.

          Do you train with them? Since you mention that you don't use it often.
          A lot of people found it difficult to locate the laser dot quickly under stress. You don't want to find out the answer only at "moment of truth".

          Some instructors even suggest that one should retake basic combat handgun and night shoot by only using laser if students were considering it as primary sighting system.

            Is the gun used in an HD role? If so... Honestly, a good handheld or weapon-mounted light (depending on your preference) would be a better investment. If it's just a range toy, then I'm sure NC star makes something cheap that you can have some fun with.
