Lasermax or Crimson Trace?

[ice weasel]

For those of you with experience with the Lasermax, what do you think? I realize the CT laser is brand new so there is probably a small group of people that have had any time with it at all.

I like either system because either one adds nothing, or virtually nothing to the exterior profile of the weapon.

I appreciate your thoughts.

Thanks.

I installed the Lmax on my G22.I must say it was by far the easiest mod I ever did to my glock.I installed it in about 10 minutes....so easy.As far as the function of the Lmax goes I have fired nearly 1000 rnds through my glock with it installed.No problems at all.There is a bit of wear on the battery cap but its no problem,its still holding securely.I bought it just for the home defense situation but have used it at the range just to see the accuracy.I was shooting some of the best groups I ever shot.Deffinately a good investment if you ask me.At 20 yrds I was grouping around 3 inches,pretty damn good for just putting the laser on the target and firing without aim.To each his own though,Id say go with what you like the best.

Try the Armalaser one that just came out. Its advertised for the G26/27/33 but my friend has one on his G19 and I've seen them fitted fine on all but the 45 cal Glocks. Plus its only $129.

Very interesting...
Just got a new G30 and am really wanting a laser sight...Like the Lasermax but am unsure on the flasing laser bit. v/s CT solid beam that isn't released just yet...

Have to do more research...I especially like the idea that it doesn't need the rails to attach as my G30 is without them.

The biggest trouble that I can see with the Armalaser is that is an external laser, and that characteristic will limit you in your choice of holsters.

Crimson Trace Laser grips are not out yet, I have Lasermax in 2 of my carry weapons. Good places to get them are www.glockstore.com www.tdr911.com www.topglock.com . I have had a small issue with the battery cap. You should replace it every year.

Or, save $30.00 - $60.00 and get it at: http://www.midwayusa.com/

They're $260.00 for virtually all Glocks.

The idea with the pulsing beam is that your peripheral vision will acquire movement faster, and the pulsing beam stands out better in a complex background.

In some 1200+ rounds my LaserMax turned itself on once; and I simply turned if off. Here's one LEO's review of LaserMax on a Glock 21: http://www.commtechreview.net/lawsec/likglock.htm

I know CT makes excellent products too...

Don't have any experience with Lasermax but previous experience with Crimson Trace has me anticipating one for my Glock.

[Crimson Trace]

The G-series Lasergrips for Glock have been released.

The LG-617 was released the week of Dec. 12th

The LG-619 will be released the week of Dec. 19th

The Lg-626 will be released in January.

Hope this helps, Joe

I have one of both. Lasermax on a G23C and a Crimson Trace LG-401 on a Kimber Stainless TLE. I think they both have their pros and cons. I have not had one problem with either lasers and they both hold their aim well.

Crimson is adjustable, LMax isn't but this hasn't seemed to be a big issue for me. Training at the range with the G23, I have loved the LMAX, quick target acquisition and rapid fire capability with awesome groups.

I like both. + for CT as they did the free batteries for life deal.

Glock on!!
