Wilsonville, OR —-(AmmoLand.com)- Crimson Trace announces the next generation of Lasergrips for most standard and compact Glock pistols. The LG-417 fits the 2nd and 3rd generations of the Glock models 17, 17L, 19, 22, 23, 32, 34, 35, 37 and 38. Suggested retail price is $329.00.
The LG-417 is the ultimate refinement of laser sighting systems for Glock pistols. The Lasergrips encircle the polymer grip of the Glock and anchored in place by a locking-block attachment that discreetly covers the beavertail. This skeletonized design leaves the backstrap open and adds little to the width of the stock Glock grip, giving it the advantage of fitting common LE/MIL duty holsters.
It is instinctively activated by a pressure switch built into the front strap of the polymer Lasergrips. Simply grasping the firearm in a normal shooting grip activates the laser. The master on/off switch is located on the left-hand side and uses new microprocessor touch sensor switch technology versus a mechanical switch found on most other Lasergrips. Users simply press the recessed pressure switch to turn the unit on or off. All electrical components fit into the Lasergrip, which is small in size and is ergonomically designed for comfort.
Two #2032 batteries are located in the palm swell on each side of the Lasergrips, providing over 4 hours of constant-on beam time. Rubber overmolding covers both the activation button on the front strap and the master on/off switch, providing improved grip while shooting.
Another new feature of the LG-417 is that it uses the smaller 3.3mm diameter laser diode versus the standard 5.6 diameter diode that is found in most all other brands of laser sighting devices. This reduces the overall size of the laser diode housing. As with all other Lasergrips, the LG-417 has both windage and elevation adjustments for shooters to make adjustments on their own. All Lasergrips come with an accessory pack that contains batteries, hex wrenches for laser adjustments, a cleaning cloth and several cleaning swabs. A three-year warranty is standard.

Crimson Trace is always so full of crap. This “new” version was first touted as “coming soon” back in January of 09.
Great products but don’t believe their coming soon crap until you have it in your hand.
What kind of a comment do you expect from someone dumb enough to own a Glock
