Agreed. We've owned several lasers over the years for different experiments, but they are toys. There are very few electronic devices that I like the thought of mounting on a firearm and having to trust when the chips are down. Had a Holosight once too. Great on a shotgun on a bright day shooting clay birds. But as a sight shooting real stuff, it lagged. Tried it on the crossbow and on the slug gun and killed a few deer with it, but I liked a Leupold scope much better. Things with the Holosight were tricky in low light. In bright light, you've got to turn it all the way up and you're burning battery fast.

I carry several at once but it's because of my job so depending on what I'm doing these are what I carry and how: S&W bodyguard 380 either inside the waistband or inside pocket holster. Glock 27 on an ankle holster or strong side blackhawk holster. Glock 22 strong side blackhawk holster, or sig P220 strong side holster. Always have 2 and depends on what I'm doing plus a couple long guns in the truck
