laser sights, what do you use?

[Mr. Friendly]

wanting to put a laser sight on my Sig P250's rail.

I don't want to buy junk, but I also don't want to pay out the nose.

mostly for dry fire practice on a DAO trigger and learn to keep 'er steady, but if I take it live, will be shooting 9mm, so has to be strong enough to handle that.

any recommendations would be appreciated!

I use a Sun Optic light/laser unit. They come in red or green laser. Cheap as chips at around $140 IIRC.
They are no good for shotgun! I blew the light right off. They are fine for AR so I assume will be ok for handgun.
They have a lifetime warranty so the one that blew up got replaced.
You need to check if they fit the SIG rail. They fit pic rails but not my Glock one.

hmmm, good point about rail compatibility.

sucks that a variation actually exists. <_<

which one did you get? PN would be appreciated.

I'm at work now. Will check when I get home.
They are Chinese made. But better than NC Star.

I found the streamlight TLR to be a properly made unit without totally breaking the bank.

If you want a real good handgun laser, go Crimson Trace

Buy once, cry once. Crimson trace X2

 

[Mr. Friendly]

yeah, I could buy Crimson Trace...but under their Sig line, the P250/P320 isn't listed

just emailed to see what they say should work.

The unit is labelled CLF-C3S or MF6LX by Sun Optics. Tax in about $140.
If you can afford the $, definitely go with the Crimson Trace. Won't have to worry about rail specs.

 

[Mr. Friendly]

just to be an arse, how about the Sig LIMA1 laser sight?

same price range as the Crimson Trace...

 

[Mr. Friendly]

bumped into the Sightmark lasers.

what's the word on them?
