    Is this a cartridge-sized laser that shines out the muzzle? I have a friend who got one and was wondering if it made a difference since there’s obviously no recoil, making it unrealistic. But I guess it’s helpful to see where you line up immediately upon drawing your weapon.

      I happened to ask my friend about his and he said he used it for bore-sighting his red dot at home before hitting the range for final adjustments. Pretty cool use of it, I think.

      You’re right that it doesn’t have recoil and casings aren’t being ejected. It isn’t identical to hitting the range, but it does help build your aim which does translate a bit to the real thing. I don’t have infinite money for ammo (have ya SEEN the prices of a box of bullets lately?) so it was a nice compromise.
