One of the best additions to any defensive or concealed carry pistol is a laser sight. Besides making aiming at your target incredibly easy laser sights also have a huge deterrent effect on assailants. If you can survive a defensive encounter without having to fire your pistol you have succeeded on many levels. Studies have shown that when confronted by a laser and the red dot it imparts that criminals often back down and surrender as they rationalize what is likely to happen if they proceed in their attack. It is tough for an attacker to pretend that their’ potential victim is going to miss when they can see the red dot from the laser projected on their torso.
