I have been unable to find any laser sights for my handguns. Aside from several available for the Beretta 92 and Colt 1911, there are just some universal sights advertised such as the BARKSA Universal Sight which does not indicate how "universal" it is or how it is mounted.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

Can only speak for a particular one....Sig STL-900L. Its a steady light, momentary light, strobe and/or laser, in any combo you want. You can have light alone, light w/laser, strobe alone, or strobe w/laser.
It mounts under my P220 Equinox and locked right in. I think it would probably fit anything with an under-frame mount. Once zeroed, it has proven to be flawless and totally "dead on"....as opposed to iron sights and the human factor. Being mounted underneath, the iron sights are still fully visible.
My final testing (did many) was indoors in total darkness at two distances...approx. 32 ft. and approx. 20-21 ft. At both distances it was dead on. Ammo used was .45 ACP 230 gr. "range safe". In total darkness, used the steady light w/laser and strobe w/laser. The light IS blinding, steady or strobe. Had my wife point the unmounted unit at me in a darkened hallway, using both steady light and strobe. The steady light blinded me, she disappeared, and all I could see was the light....nothing else. The strobe did basically the same thing, except it was a little disorienting. In each case, the red dot was squarely on my chest (or head)...as she chose. I needed to see what a person would see on the receiving end. Am very happy with the unit.
NOTES:
The adjustment Allen wrench that comes with the unit fits into a slot on the unit side. It WILL fall out under recoil or handling. Recommend taping it over with Scotch tape after zeroing. Even better, keep it separate in a coin envelope or tiny plastic envelope. After zeroing, no need to keep it physically on the unit. Wrench appears to be approx. 1.5-1.0 mm. It is tiny.
The directions for zeroing with the unit are actually the opposite of what needs to be done...at least with mine. Bottom line....want dot moved to the left....turn counterclockwise. To the right....clockwise....no matter what the directions say. Used 6 sheets plain white paper with center of black pasters for the zero process. That's how I found the directions were opposite to reality.
End result: Love it, and would not hesitate to recommend it.
