Aren't they nice!!! Even when they get smaller!

CT grips huh! I think you'll like those a lot - cool factor yes but being also very practical - they are for me a great adjunct.

I always tho suggest to any folks with them - use irons all time and let red dot if seen, become a confirmatory presence - tho in very low light it can be all that is seen and needed. Main thing is to avoid dependence on that.

I have some coming for my new (to me) SIG 228 - which will mean then (shudder as I total up money spent on these!) - my sixth set!!

So - CT's on - SP-101, M28-2, M629-6, SIG's - 220, 226 and 228. Yikes!

Cool ..... I figured I would get ridiculed for using Lasergrips. I feel that that little red dot is very intimidating and might be all the force that is needed at times. I know I would hate to have a red dot on my chest if I was a BG!!!!

Well - first off - I for one would never ridicule anyone for laser grips - I guess a few might but - as long as they remain ''accessory'' category then they can IMO be invaluable. Could well be the most efficient way to have to shoot round a corner from cover, maintaining absolute minimal exposure.

I actually don't think a BG will often see any red dot on himself - but more likely he may notice the spot of red from the emitter on the gun - which could (should!?) get his attention
