Will the laser stay true? the NC Star one has quick release and biggest complaint is it has to constantly be readjusted to zero.

I have had no issue with it at all. I have it on a 9mm AR pistol build I did. I keep it in what I call a "loose zero" Meaning it does not need to be dead on where the bullet hits, just within 2 inches or less. It does this with no problem. I put it on the gun and really never touched it. The laser is just about 1 1/2" left of where bullet impact occurs and that is at 10 to 15 yards. It has never shifted. Around 2000 rounds with this laser on the gun so far.

I bought one and used it for a while. I had a problem keeping the laser sighted in. It seemed to "slip" out of alignment every time I stored the pistol and then had to re-align before shooting for score. Not a bad idea, it just didn't seem to do the job without the problem stated above. FWIW

Laser will not stay on zero, I have a G22, full size with a weaver rail, fits fine.

Count on zeroing it again, plan on returning this sight, I returned three to cabelas before buying a vortex sparc and never having issues again

The laser is a direct, straight beam that comes out of the muzzle.. Unlike actual bullets/ barrels, the tend to be mostly lined up.There is no direct adjustment... Its just close.I recommend the SIRT pistols, I own several of these kind of products (purchased off Amazon), and this one is terrible. Cry once, or cry twice..Heck, I tried to give mine away and after most of my friends used the other brands/products I own, no one wanted the LaserLyte. This pistol will end up in the trash.

Mag worked for me - Barrel gets too hot. Be-careful, over tightening can be an issue. Hope this helps! Fine tuning the laser sight can be difficult. The directions are sparse at best.

Well it fit my lc9.though when you replace the back stock bolt with the the techna clip scre and threaded bolt.You lose tension on the trigger.sometimes you pull the trigger and it does nothing but tighten up.making you pull the trigger twice to fire.first pull there's no tension.2nd pull it's back to normal.definitely not reliable for a defensive situation.Took mine off and threw it away.seen someone else complained about it.tried it and sure enough mine had the same issue.glad I read about it.could've cost me my life if it had been relied on in a critical situation.

I've never used that system but have been perfectly happy with mine. Zero has been consistent. I've never shot targets over 100 meters as these sites are for close quarters mainly. They are a back up for my reflex site and in low light conditions. The hardest part was zeroing them and making adjustments. being the sites are at 45 degrees you cant use straight traditional movements to adjust for shot placement. the way i got around this was buy taping the target on at a 45 degree angle to match the sites. I really like the sight over all and its a great backup for your scope or reflex sight. Hope this helps... I've never used that system but have been perfectly happy with mine.

I have one of these and am not too fond if it. The idea is good but in practice it doesn't work too well, at least for me. If you are trying to react quickly to a short range target from the low ready or high ready you have to hold your head up to see the upper dot. This slows you down considerably. With dot type sight or even iron sights sitting low you can be very consistent because you bring the stock to your cheek, no head movement required, and you are perfectly aligned every time. Not the case when you have to hold your head up to clear the scope to acquire the dot.

I have an lc9s with an after market Laser Max. I mounted it, adjusted it's sighting/point of aim. I have used it for over 6mo. Well over 200 rounds and in and out of holster every day during my muscle memory development practice. It has shown no movement of POA. No loosening nor any malfunctions. I think it is a very reliable, more than adequate and obviously great price value relative to other lasers. The red at defensive distances is good day and night. I live in very cold winter and very hot summer climate and the green lasers don't do well in these extremes at our out door range, something to think about in choosing Red over Green beam. Hope this helps and you enjoy the advantage of a laser. John B. Idaho, CWO4, USN/USMC Ret.

Zeroed in on a High Point 995 TS in 4 rounds. Really liked it but after 100+ rounds started to drop out turning off. Found I had to select between numbered settings and couldn't trust it would stay on. Also took one battery to determine on / off of sight. Really thought I had a winner however unless I can figure out how to set so it holds in the on position will return to my scope and file this in the $20 loss column. Any thoughts from other users how to deal with this issue. Appears to be a recoil issue.

Would have been a great laser if it could have been adjusted. As it stands right now the best adjustment I could get on the laser is still 8" off target.

The laser light remains on after each trigger pull on my Ruger SR9C. The only way I have found to reset is to cock the slide. It doesn't work with the laserlyte target because since the laser stays on it records multiple strikes. I still find it useful on dry fire practice with a paper target.

It doesn't really matter man, this scope is a POS. Cool looking but crap. Over the course of one or two years, with little use, the x & y axis of the reticle has canted to the right so that the top of the y axis is nearly in the one o'clock position. You would think maybe bc of recoil right? Wrong. Mounted on a f***ing .22 lr. Steer Clear of NcStar Products.

I haven't had that problem but I am not completely happy either with my own issue. The windage knob on the rear sight moves when I change the sight aperture from large to small. This obviously changed my zero. I kept them only because I was looking for a work around and they were relatively inexpensive. They had good reviews but I wouldn't buy again.

Hit or miss. Mine doesn't hold zero switching reticles on any caliber. Also the adjustment screws for windage and elevation and just plain awful. There is no "click" and they will back out from shooting unless you loktite them. In all honesty, having owned both, i would recommend a Bushnell TRS-25 over this product 10X over.

I had the laser zero'd to 25 yards, and while I didn't use the laser while I was shooting, after two 30 round magazines, zero moved about 5' to the left. I simply could have gotten a bad unit, I don't know, but I'm going to give it one more test before I bet my life on it.
