Buying a Laser Sight

When you are buying a laser sight, there are a couple of important decisions to make in order to make sure that you buy the best sight for your needs. Laser sights are available for both handguns and rifles. In fact, many laser sights are specifically designed for use with popular guns. Laser sights can use red or green lasers for maximum sighting in a variety of lighting situations. The following are some of the important factors to consider when buying a discount laser sight from Hunting Camping Deals.

Laser Sight Type

Laser sights are designed for use with pistols, revolvers, and rifles. When you are buying a laser sight, it is important to ensure that you are buying a sight that is compatible with your particular firearm. Some types of laser sights are versatile and are designed to mount to nearly any type of firearm. This includes the AimShot red laser sight kits for pistols or rifles. These universal laser sights include a versatile rail mount, allowing them to mount to nearly any firearm with a standard rail. Other types of laser sights are manufactured specifically for particular types of pistols or rifles. Some of the laser sights that are designed for particular firearms include:

Glock Laser Sights
Sig Sauer Laser Sights
1911 Laser Sights
Ruger Laser Sights
Taurus Laser Sights
Smith and Wesson Laser Sights

Laser Sight Activation

Another difference between styles of laser sights is how the laser is activated. Which type of activation will be best for you can depend on the type of situations during which you will be using your laser sight. For training and target shooting, you will be able to use a laser sight with a simple on off switch anywhere on the gun or laser itself. In these situations, you will not need to turn the laser on in an instant. For tactical or self-defense situations, it may be better to use a laser sight that has a conveniently located activation trigger so that you can turn the laser on or off without changing your grip on the firearm. In these cases, Crimson Trace laser sights offer front or rear activation for their laser grips that easily turn on when you squeeze your gun with a natural firm firing grip.

Green or Red Laser Sights

Deciding whether you prefer to buy a green or red laser sight can depend on the type of situation during which you will most often be using your firearm. For typical night shooting in self-defense and law enforcement applications, a red laser will provide a clear bright light for up to several hundred yards. However, in bright sunlight a red laser sight can be seen only up to 15 yards away. If you are planning on shooting in daylight situations, a green laser sight offers a bright green laser beam. These lasers are ideal in military and tactical situations. To learn more about why to buy a green laser sight instead of the traditional red laser sight, view our Green Laser Sights page.
