Lasermax info needed

[Pastprime]

Is anyone using one of these and how do you like it?? I bought a used G17 and it had one in it. I didn't realize what it was until I got it out and looked up the company.

Mostly wonder if the batteries last more than 1 hour. Works fine and bullets go where it's pointed, but it sure shows up how shaky I am.

I had one years ago on a Glock 36 that was in the gun when I bought it used from Jim’s Pawn in Fayetteville. The sales guy seemed just as surprised as me to see it in there when I took the gun apart, as their pricing obviously reflected that they didn’t know it was there. I carried it for a little while but honestly never really cared for it. If they are still activated the way they used to be (pushing in the takedown lever) then I think it would be very difficult to activate in a high stress situation.

The on/off switch is the same. Like you, I seriously doubt that if I had to grab the pistol and go in a hurry that I'd remember to turn it on. But, I have read several places that some LEO us them a like them. Ordered a couple OEM recoil spring assemblies to replace the Lasermax. Probably throw it in the draw with the rest of the stuff I'll never get around to messing with.
