[HD Springer]

Are there other laser sights available for pm9/cm9 than crimson trace? Something thats not grip activated?

These work well, touch activated, no switchs to turn on:

Here is one on a Kel Tec:

I mean no offense, but if a laser is your thing, why would you want to fumble for a switch if you ever need to use your weapon?

You beat me to it but I was wondering the same thing...

on a gun the size of a cm9, my finger would allready be where the switch would/should be. while it's in my hand i might not want to give away my position untill i actually have to shoot.

I have a "laserlyte" sight mounted on one of my Kahrs (not the PM9). The switch location is pretty instinctive to 'thumb activcate' ... but it IS a switch so you can choose to have it on or off. It is made to fit the dovetail of the rear sight.

Being close to the bore axis makes it pretty accurate also.

I had a sight pusher blade fabricated specifically so I can install these myself. If any one is interested I can dig up the info of the guy that made it for me. I think the whole tool cost me $50.

I practice often with the tools I would use to protect the lives of my family & myself. And because of this practice I've never had to fumble to find the trigger. I think with just a little more practice I could find the switch.

It's a viable concern not wanting to activate the laser until needed. It's come up in recent discussions that the Hawaiin Good Luck sign finger is the most important finger in the grip of a handgun. Trying to hold the weapon in a ready position without squeezing that middle finger is tough.

An instructor pointed out you can shoot with only a thumb and your middle finger and he doesn't like anything under that finger.

I have the CT on my PM45 and it fills a back up gun role so I figure I won't care if the laser is activated or not and it may be a good thing if things are bad and getting a sight picture could be compromised.

I like the 1911 CT grips that activate with that middle finger but also have a switch to disconnect it.

Laserlyte clean mount allows for your existing holster. Unobtrusive and still have the original sights to use +1

Leave it to Bawanna to find yet another use for the middle finger. Way to go, Bawanna.

In 99 out of 100 self defense scenarios your position is already going to be compromised. The reality is if you are in a situation where you absolutely have to draw your weapon your adrenaline will be pumping so hard it will seem like a dream. You do not need anything else to think about such as turning on a laser etc. It will need to be instinctive because these types of things happen fast. To me the laser comes into play if you have to fire from an awkward position such as sitting in your car or after being knocked to the ground. No time to turn it on then. In a situation where there is time you will acquire your sights and shoot just like you train. If you train. JMHO.

I was considering the armalaser for dry fire training. It looks great for the price. How easily and quickly can you take it on and off the pistol?
