Thanks CHLady, I will check it out too.
this product , as great as it is , is way over priced for what it is .(not that i don't still want one)
i guess it boils down to supply and demand . with its popularity , people are willing to pay a premium .
just like with most things , the price should come down .

when it hits $ 99 , i'll be all over it .

think about this . you can buy a laser pointer at the dollar store now .

Yes but I can't figure out how to keep the little button held down!!! "rlol"

I really did want to say that I agreed with another thread mentioning that the sites on the LCP are so slight that one needs to get used to point and click rather than relying on looking down the sites.

I didn't want a laser on my gun and my husband asked me to practice with it at home on the wall to get used to the point and click process rather than relying on the sites.

Of course I respected his wishes and had him put the laser on my gun ( ;-) ) and I see that I am getting more used to hitting the target without using the sites.

He would like for me to leave it on the gun always but we'll see.
