Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Crimson Trace Lightguard activate on the S&W M&P?

The Crimson Trace Lightguard features instinctive activation, turning on automatically when you grip the pistol naturally via pressure on the front strap. It can also be toggled individually or together with the laser using grip pressure and a master override switch.

Can the Crimson Trace laser for the M&P be adjusted?

Yes, every Crimson Trace laser is user-adjustable for both windage and elevation. An included Allen wrench allows for precise adjustments, and a recommended zeroing technique is to set the dot slightly below the iron sights for better daylight visibility.

What are the tactical benefits of the Crimson Trace Lightguard and Lasergrip?

These accessories offer tactical advantages by providing target identification with the 100-lumen light and aiming assistance with the laser, especially in low-light conditions or when shooting from retention. The light can also illuminate without pointing the muzzle directly at a target.

How is the Crimson Trace laser integrated into the S&W M&P?

The Crimson Trace laser is integrated into a replacement backstrap panel that mimics the factory medium size. This allows for a clean, streamlined fit specifically designed for the Smith & Wesson M&P pistol platform.
