Frequently Asked Questions

What is Crimson Trace's 'Instinctive Activation' feature?

Instinctive Activation is a proprietary technology from Crimson Trace that allows firearm accessories, such as lasers, to turn on automatically when the user grips the firearm naturally. This eliminates the need for manual button presses, providing immediate activation in critical self-defense or tactical situations.

How do you properly zero a Crimson Trace Laserguard?

To zero a Crimson Trace Laserguard, first establish a baseline group with iron sights at your desired distance. Then, adjust the laser's windage and elevation screws to align the laser dot with the center of that group. It's recommended to zero at the furthest practical distance for better accuracy over range.

What are the advantages of a green laser sight over a red one?

Green laser sights are generally considered easier to see than red lasers. This enhanced visibility can be particularly beneficial in various lighting conditions, from bright daylight to low-light environments, potentially leading to faster target acquisition and improved aiming.
