Firefly V2 Flashlight with Laser Sight Attachment

JJohnstoneJJohnstone: I don't need a laser for shooting accurately. I've never thought they were very good for that anyway but I like them for other reasons. I don't use red dot sights either. I'm an iron sight shooter.

I was looking for a laser that fit the Keltec P17 and would hold zero for months. The maximum depth of a laser for the P17 is 1.80 inches total and 1.20 inches, or less, from the front pic rail slot to the trigger housing, so this one fits; however, the zero is another story.

I don't care about the flashlight. I would have preferred not to have one, but there are only a few lasers with the right dimensions, so I decided to give it a try. The laser only sight that Tacticon sells is one of the Chinese ones I had already tried under a different brand name. It failed my tests.
