    Lasers at Ranges

    Anyone had issues with them at your local ranges?

    No I have never heard of any restrictions on lazers at a range before.

      It's always fun when somebody shows up with one. Especially a nice bright green one on a 38 snubby.

      It's like shooting with a celebrity. Michael J. Fox is a celebrity.....

        They bug the hell out of me (especially when they're the constant-on type waved all over the range), but I don't know of any range restrictions. There are competition restrictions , depending on the match.

          Great! thanks for the response, just wondering since I haven't seen anyone in the range with one.

            Try it at night with a bunch of other shooters with lighted weapons on steel; lots of fun!

              I have a TLR6 light/laser combo on my shield. Train with it on and off. The side button is wonky to try to use on the draw.

                LOL! The only issue I've seen with lasers at the range is the people mounting them on their guns can't seem to hit where the dot sits no matter what they do.

                  We are an outdoor range, although you shoot from under cover. There are only a couple of times during the day when you can see them on targets. If you came out on Wednesday night you can after sunset. I have a Crimson Trace green laser guide rod in a 92FS and it is still hard to see outdoors.
                  I'd agree with you but then we'd both be wrong...

                    They are great to train new shooters. It visibly shows them their flinch and pull it push. Helps smooth out their pull very quickly.
