Handgun Tactics | Why You Don’t Need a Laser

August 11, 2017 by Brandon Webb 4 Comments

Handgun Tactics: Why You Don’t Need a Laser

I always get asked the question, “What’s the best laser or sight system for my gun?”. I am a big fan of keeping it simple. Add too much crap to the mix and you may look like a tactical ninja on the range but you’ll look a different way when it comes down to shooting for keeps!

I’ll spare you the Navy SEAL instinctive fire lesson and just tell you these seven words. Get a tactical light for your weapon.  You don’t need a laser, a light blinds and can (and should) be used as your front sight.  It works as I demonstrate in the video below. I’m sure the usual overweight self-proclaimed gun experts writing for Harris publications (Have you seen those weirdos?) will tell you different however, they don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about.

Watch and decide for yourself. Then get a light and forget the fancy lasers.
