I'll bite, how far?Think about how far a laser will move during recoil versus the front sight.
I keep a Crimson Trace Green rail laser equipped G19 in my car 24/7.I am thinking about adding a laser to my G19 & see quite a bit of good info on brands & models, but I was wondering in general, what color laser works best for all around use? Thanks in advance.
Yes, the laser dot. Say during recoil the front sight moves 3 inches. The laser dot is going to move a lot more than 3 inches. Also, a front sight is easier to find initially than a laser dot.I'll bite, how far?
Seems to me the laser will move the same distance as the sight.
Do you mean, the laser dot?
That's not true! I can see my red laser during the day. If I get real close, squint my eyes really tight... I can usually spot it.Red lasers are invisible outside during the day.
I'll have an ounce of what you're smoking. :crazy:Yes, the laser dot. Say during recoil the front sight moves 3 inches. The laser dot is going to move a lot more than 3 inches. Also, a front sight is easier to find initially than a laser dot.

Um, what does the position of the laser dot after firing have to do with anything? Properly set for x range, the front sight and laser dot are in alignment, in a fixed, mechanically held position, sharing the same point of impact. After the pistol is fired, due to recoil forces, the laser dot moves up expotentially higher from the target than the front sight due to it's greater distance from the muzzle (picture a 30°/60°/90° triangle laid on it's side); recoil then diminishes, allowing both the front sight and laser to then move down in the reverse direction, still in alignment, and ready to utilize while aiming at the target for any successive shots - as they were before.
No. That is the point. The laser dot moves more than a front sight during recoil so a front sight is quicker to reacquire because of what you said and the front sight is a lot closer to your eyes which also helps.Um, what does the position of the laser dot after firing have to do with anything?

Am I missing something?
