    Tech marches on. Im personally waiting for Crimson Trace to make compact green laser grips for the S&W J Frames

      I’m waiting for Crimson Trace to make grip modules for the Gen 4 Glock 21 and 30 like they did for the 17 and 26. I’m also waiting for them to make modules for the HK p30 and p30sk. But, I’m sure I will keep waiting.

    As seen on the movie poster of Stallone’s “COBRA”.

      Well, since the Jatimatic is designed to be a hip-fire weapon, a laser sight is perfect for it.

    Then came the original 6P with a blazing 65 lumens that would start wildfires and weld eyelids shut.

    Why does the AR has a set trigger? Or is it a trigger tab like a Glock? If it’s for laser activation I thought we PANNED that design a while ago

    I still want a laser like from Terminator

    Oddly, I have one of those. It was on a police trade-in M16A1 I bought in ~1995. The one I have was manufactured in March of 1985 by “Laser Products Corp, Fountain Valley CA”. Pretty fascinating because you can see many things Surefire incorporated into future designs; a battery “magazine” which holds 12 AA batteries, a pressure pad for activation, etc.

    I’ll take some pictures, incorporate them into a webpage and post later today.

    I always wondered who made the lasers from the gun range scene in Beverly Hills Cop 2, now I know. Thanks SSD!
