You may be able to purchase a lower price laser sight but won't find a better made than a Crimson Trace. All CCW firearms should have a laser sight. BUT FIRST if you are a new shooter learn and practice with your iron sights then point shooting and then purchase the CT when your you can hit your target. Nothing worse than losing power and you can't hit target. Activation of the sight is very easy and I've no problems with any of mine. I own 5 and they are a excellent additional tool for you, your family and friends if you end up in harms way and hopefully you never will.

Love, love, love my laser grip sight. Installed it on my 1911, and since then I can't help doing my best Arnold Schwarzenegger impression every time I take it out of the safe: ".45 long slide with lasah sighting....!" The laser grips were a snap to install, taking just minutes. Only an ordinary screwdriver was needed to remove the grip screws; no special tools or expertise required. Batteries were included, and Crimson Trace Corp has a great policy of replacing batteries for their grips FOR LIFE. Yes, every year or two you can request another paid of 2032 batteries, to keep that beam shining! Crimson Trace recommends you place the red dot just below the post in your sight picture, but I found that I get better results placing it just above the line so I can actually see it. The adjustments are easily done with one of the two (2) included micro-Allen wrenches. The laser switch is on the front of the grip, and activates with a little grip pressure. It holds zero really well; I haven't needed to make an adjustment yet. Tactically, lasers allow quicker target acquisition, especially in low light situations. I don't have night googles, so the red dot is a big advantage for me in the dark. Sure, you can say the beam might give your position away. But by the time the bad guy sees where the beam is coming from, I've already got him. And man oh man, it's just really fun to shoot. Everyone at the range wants to try it out and gets a kick out of it!Read full review

I'm 62. The gun is black,the sights are black,the bulls-eye is black. Very hard to get a good sight picture. With this, even I have no problem seeing that bright red dot. I can shoot groups tight enough that there is just one big ragged hole in the target. I will get these for every gun I own.

The Sig 232 is an excellent firearm that is ideal for close quarters self-defense. If the laser dot is not a deterrent You can have a greater assurance you will hit your target if you pull the trigger. My only complaint is that on the 232 the slide and hammer springs are so heavy that the slide is very difficult to pull back and chamber a round. The section of right grip panel that houses the laser blocks the a major portion of the serrated grasping part of the slide making an already difficult task even more difficult.

This is a nice addition to my 1911 as I discovered problems with aim beyond 25' as my eyes age. It was easy to install and is operating as it's supposed to. Free batteries for life doesn't hurt either
