Here's my thoughts.
The better half and I keep our UC II's on our night stands. For a quick response when your half asleep, I think they're the ticket.
Outside in bright light nearly useless, not worth the money.
I've got a set on the LCP, but don't carry it much at all after adding the P238 as my EDC.

Be safe
Jim

I have them on my LCP, M&P 9c, Colt Defender Plus and Colt New Agent. I think they really help my shooting accuracy and sight acquisition . But just like any other tool , if they help your shooting -they're great if they don't -they just an expensive cat toy

If you ever get a chance to receive training with CT's and a light you will see how much faster and accurate you are in less than great lighting.

If you know how to use them right they make a world of difference

I agree with Alan. I have an older friend who poopoo's every new thing. He tried mine and then understood how important they are in a SD situation. Particularly if youve been knocked to the ground and are having to draw from there. The weapon never comes-up to you eye level.

I have had them mounted on my 191's and a Beretta..............don't waste your money on them.

The only thing that they will do for you at the range is show you how much you move around on target with the red dot!!!!

CT's are not for target shooting, Bullseye, or for plinking. For those purposes CT's are worthless.

For true defensive and offensive purposes they are invaluable in some situations. IF....you know how to use them and are trained.

Alan, I have to agree with you on your post!!

On a range weapon they are more of a novelty than anything else.

They are excellent for their intended use, close quarter shooting in low-level light to no light.
