I have a sig 238 that came with the factory laser. What is the best way to sight it in if I decide to put it on and use it. I know that it's not like a rifle where a few degrees means I'm off by feet 300 yards away, I just want to make sure that it's on at 25 yards or less.

It should have elevation and windage knobs somewhere on it like any optic would and you'd adjust it the same way; shoot at something 25 yards away, see where you hit, then adjust accordingly till you're on.

I was wondering if there was an alternate way besides going to the range. I have a good bit of ammo, but replacing it will cost a gallon of blood and 3 years of being a slave.

Academy in Hoover has 9mm federal for 21.99 and blazer alum for 19.99 limited 2 boxes but it’s at the gun counter.

Not that I'm aware of unfortunately. You might be able to rig something up with a laser boresighter by trying to put the lasers over each other but I wouldn't recommend it or trust the results

I've been looking at those bullets that have the laser in them, but since it's such a short distance from the target to the pistol I may do the method where you adjust your laser so it shines right above where your sights line up since it doesn't have to be perfectly on like a rifle. It's one of the methods that I found online.

I need to check out my LGS to see what they're charging but I haven't been in sine around November last year when they were only allowing 2 people in the store at once
