Does any one have any experience with using "laser sights"
on a 9mm pistol. I have a friend interesting in using
one to mount on a psitol that he has primarily for
home defense. The reason being that he wears glasses
and does not know if he could use his pistol
accurately if he could not get his glasses on.
  I am concerned about the laser sights that
projects a red dot that you place on the target 
not the type with a scope were you super-impose 
a red dot on the target. I have seen an used these for rifles
but they all looked to big for a pistol. 
Any help is appreciated
