Crimson Trace Showcases New Sights and Riflescopes at SHOT Show

January 8th, 2019

(Wilsonville, OR) — America’s Top Brand of laser sights, Crimson Trace®, today announced that it will showcase more than two dozen new products at the 2019 Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade (SHOT®) Show in Las Vegas. Those products include red and green laser sights, red dot sights for pistols and long guns, and nearly a dozen cutting-edge riflescopes for long range and medium range shooting enthusiasts. Crimson Trace will showcase these and all of its products at SHOT Show in booth #13729 beginning January 22.

Among the new products are Crimson Trace laser sights:
• The Laserguard® LG-422/G laser sight with a red or green diode for the SIG Sauer® P365® semi-auto pistol.
• The Laserguard LG-459 with a red diode and the LG-459G with a green diode. Those new laser sights are engineered for a precision fit onto the trigger guards of the Smith & Wesson® M&P Shield® EZ® pistols and the Smith &Wesson M&P® .22 Compact pistol series.
• The Lasersaddle™ LS-250/G laser sight designed for fit onto the Mossberg® SHOCKWAVE™ firearm, available in both red and green versions.

Several models of new Crimson Trace red dot sights will include:
• The CTS-1000—a closed red dot sight with a 2 MOA aiming reticle designed for use on a rifle equipped with most standard rail mounting systems.
• The CTS-1100—a 3.5X battlesight with a custom and fully-illuminated Crimson Trace advanced hybrid BDC reticle designed primarily for use on long guns.
• The CTS-1400—an open red dot sight with 3.25 MOA aiming reticle and a large field of view. It is designed for use on long guns and incorporates an advanced motion detection system that notes inactivity, resulting in auto-shut-off to save battery life.

Crimson Trace will also showcase 11 new custom-designed riflescopes that range from a 1-4X24mm up to a long-range 5-25X56mm. Each riflescope offers a range of magnification options and provides generous eye relief. The line includes models featuring 30mm and 34mm one-piece tubes with objective lenses in diameters ranging from 24mm to 56mm. All riflescopes have specially designed turrets that make adjustment easier for users wearing gloves, and are equipped with flip-up caps on the ocular and objective lenses to protect the glass and help keep the glass surfaces clean. Subdued internal components reduce glare and bright spots, resulting in improved vision and a clearer image. The line also includes a 3-9X40mm riflescope with an illuminated reticle and 34mm tube, and two 1-8X28mm riflescopes with 34mm tubes. All Crimson Trace riflescopes are fog-, shock-, water- and dust-proof and the illuminated reticles can be adjusted to varying intensity levels.

Full details on these new products, and the 350-plus laser sights manufactured by Crimson Trace, can be reviewed at www.crimsontrace.com.

Hands On – SIG MPX Copperhead

January 7th, 2019

Although it came first to market, the SIG MPX has screamed for an ultra compact treatment like its big brother, the MCX Rattler. And that’s just what SIG did when they created the MPX Copperhead.

I got the chance to take a full auto version of this 9mm to the range last summer. It boasts a 3.5″ barrel within a one-piece upper receiver and an overall length of 14.5″ in its pistol configuration with new proprietary collapsible SIG stabilizing brace. The Copperhead in the photos is fitted with their standard collapsible stock. Additionally, the Copperhead will be offered in a Tan cerakote.
