Ruger LCP .380 with laser sight.

[Adam Helmer]

popplecop & Jack,

I agree with what you both said. At the gunshop, they had two, new, LCPs without the laser for $300 while the laser sight model was $425. I lobbied for the LCP without the laser, but the student was gung ho for the laser and bought it.

On the range, the student lingered while attempting to shoot at the target because he became too interested in the red dot on the target and how it bobbed about during the long trigger pull. A small defensive handgun should be a point and shot proposition in gravest extreme at close range rather than trying to hold the red dot still. At the next range session, I will coach him to shoot through the wobble. By that I mean, when the red dot is on the target-shoot.
