Anyone use lasers?

[radioflyer]

What brand/model? Has anyone tried green lasers?

 

[DCortez]

Crimson. I like them but use them as a secondary tool.

Crimson Trace on my J Frame. Works well.

works great on mr LCP:

I have one on my LCP just like maxpowers.I also have a lasermax internal on my 26.They both work great,no problems,but I find that I like the one on my LCP better.Its more natural and easier to turn on and off.I'm now looking to find one for my 19.I think I will ckeck out the new sabre line. sj

Crimson Trace, Rules! I had another one mounted to the trigger guard, but it never zero'ed for very long. Long enough to need it, but the more you shoot, the farther off it got.

I would be very interested in a green laser for the SKS. Brute force meets high tech.

The double laser above looks very cook, but holy cow is that a lot to lug around, get caught on stuff, empty your wallet...

My 2 cents.

CT makes the Laserguard, the type on the LCP, for the G19. I will probably get one as I like the way it works on my LCP

Empty my wallet, not hardly. A lot to lug around? Only if this seems like a lot to you.
Size: (inches / centimeters)
L 3.4 x W 2.9 x H 1.9 / L 8.5 x W 7.4 x H 4.8
Weight 8. oz. (including (1) CR123 battery

Get caught on stuff! Not one of my concerns when I'm using it to kill a parcel feral hogs without them knowing it.

WTF does "looks very cook" mean?

Hey Maxpower,how hard do you think it will be to find holsters if you get one for your 19 ? If you find any please let me know as thats the only thing stopping me from putting one on mine.sj

I have a Streamlight TLR2 light/laser combo on my GP6 and have been very impressed. They are a little pricey but I found mine on ebay and saved about $100. Anyway, I have to take it off of the rail to clean it and when I put it back on, exact same POI, which was great.

sj,

good question - the laserguard for the 19 is fairly new so it may take a while for companies to make one specifically for it. If I run across anything I will post it

It means that "L" an "K" are too close together on someone's keyboard.

Thanks Maxpower,I appreciate it.sj

sj,

I'm looking at this one from Fobus:

• Accommodates accessories mounted on frame rails or trigger guards.
• Retention provided by leather thumb break and muzzle stud.
• Lightweight, reinforced construction.

Product ID: GLT19
Manufacturer: Glock

I went to a gunshow this past saturday and went ahead and bought another lasermax internal for my 19.I pretty much had to.I had a grip reduction done to both my 19 and 26 and that one was really the only one that would fit.I can use my right trigger finger to turn it on and my left thumb to turn it off.I use a two hand hold so it works out okay.sj

I would advise against a Fobus holster. To be blunt, they are pure trash. Here's one reason why:

very, very hard!! the laser increases the depth??/length?? of the triggerguard about an inch, which is a lot for a molded holster. I've been carrying one on my G23 for about 4 months and still looking for a compatible holster. CT advertises a couple Galco models on their website, and from what I can find, they are the only ones made. I ended up cutting some stitching out of my original holster and then riveting it back together to replace the stitching.

Yep. The video example is deceptive. All Kydex holsters are not built the same. I can imagine this problem with Blackhawk, Fobus, Bladetech and a few others that have a single mount-point for the paddle. Hoffner's and Comptac's paddle is a wide, solid piece (not molded or screwed together), so I believe this problem probably doesn't exist.

i only use lasers for blasting asteroids and listening to conversations.
maybe some home eye surgery too....
