laser max sights ?????
« on: October 20, 2006, 11:00:42 AM »
Does anyone have experience with this sight? I do like the idea that it is internal and does not alter the exterior of the gun. Would like to see some feedback from those who have used them

I have one on a Sig 229, it works great and I am pleased even though it seems a little awkward at times to turn it on/off.  I have several other guns equiped with the Crimson Trace grips, I like the idea of gripping the gun and being able to turn the sights on/off without extending my finger to reach the takedown lever on the Sig.  The Crimson Trace with the on/off switch under my trigger finger just feels more natural to me.

Go with the Crimson Trace.  I've heard mixed reviews on the lasermax.  Go to MidwayUSA, find the product, and read the reviews.. If memory serves correct, there were quite a few listed within the page.  Some good some bad.

I've have both the Crimson Trace and Lasermax and here's how I would compare them ...

Crimson Trace offers a brighter beam which can be seen easier under bright conditions. Lasermax offers a pulsating beam which is easier to find quickly.

The Crimson Trace ie easier/quicker to activate. The Lasermax is more accurate.
