Comments on MArooned Product Review: Crimson Trace Laser Sight Grips, Redux II : MArooned

I have the CT for my non-MA compliant LCP. It makes that little beast aim-able and doesn't appreciatively alter the dimensions.

I have CT lasergrips on all 3 of my carry handguns. I think that they are an excellent defensive pistol addition. I'll be trying a green laser on my M1 carbine this week to see how it works in daylight.

Too big for my hands *wrinkles nose*

Thanks for the mini-review, Jay.

In re patterns that indicate shooting symptoms: care to elaborate, maybe expand to a full blogpost (if you haven't already)? For example, does the same "jerk to the left" happen for left-handed shooters?

cheers,

A minor quibble regarding CT Laser Grips (full disclosure; I also have CT Laser Grips on my carry guns).

I've noticed that there is a distinctly different stance taken when firing over a laser as compared to using the iron sights. I find my head to be well elevated so as to have an unobstructed view of the target(s) and the laser dot and then I "shoot the dot". Trying to acquire a traditional sight picture with the traditional sights obstructs my view of the laser's aim point (which defeats the purpose of the thing IMO).

A new shooter wouldn't know to recognise and allow for the requirements of two not-entirely-mutually-supportive sighting mechanisms. Something else to make a point of during the intro range session, especially if a potential purchase is being considered by the newbie.

Will, I've noticed the same thing about myself.
