Lasers on EDC

[Defender]

The ones that are grip activated work best, sometimes too easy to activate.  I’ve got one Shield that  came from the factory with a Crimson Trace green laser/weapons light combo on it.  It’s on the nightstand, but because I don’t like to inadvertently activate it when I grab it, like in an emergency, I won’t grab that one first, I’ll grab my Sig which has a very easy to reach switch under the barrel that I can touch and it activates the laser/flashlight like touching the bottom switch on a handheld flashlight, or push a little harder and it stays on.  For EDC, I’d rather any extra weight I’m lugging around to be ammo.

 Well, I carry smaller guns IWB, and wear them as low as I can so the butt barely is above my belt. I've had the optic catch on my belt. Something I'd rather not deal with. I'm also of the camp that 99% of encounters happen fast without thinking. Probably no time to even aim, let alone look thru an 

Makes sense if you are trying to get the gun as low as possible.  I like them kinda low but still high enough to easily draw.

You guys knocking lasers clearly don't watch movies. Seeing the bad guy covered in red dots from the SWAT team or the sighting system from the alien's shoulder mounted gun on Predator was super cool. I had to have one too. Even the Terminator had one and he's from the future, so they must be good.

Which of the two is made by Sig?

I'm looking at ir lasers and my head is about to explode.

The one with the edible batteries is my guess.
