Crimson Trace
« on: December 04, 2004, 06:26:36 PM »
I bought a pair of new Crimson Trace lg-201's today at a gun show. I found out right away that they wouldn't fit my ambi safetey 1911 so I put them on my Kimber Custom II.
It is very hard to activate the switch. I have to squeeze really hard with both hands or grip with my left hand first. This alows me to press it with my finger tips rather than my palm. This is very uncomfortable to me and not acceptable.
Is there any way to adjust the sensitivity of the switch?
Thanks .

Texgun,  Your 201 grips are a first generation product and could be very old.  Call CrimsonTrace 800 442 2406, they will take care of you.

I have tried the grips at Jay's on the demo gun.  I have small hands (short fingers) and the switch falls between where my fingers press.  The only way I could activate them (these are the new style) is to press on the switch with my left thumb.  These are a really neat idea, but it certainly doesn't work for me.  44 Man
