Here is my write up of the new Crimson Trace Lightguard that appeared over at
AmmoLand.com last week. Enjoy!
*********************************************
Its always interesting to take a look back at the firearms industry and see which guns and gear have carved out the path things have taken over the years. It wasn't too long ago that the mere idea of mounting lights and lasers to firearms was an almost inconceivable notion... Once people
did start mounting weapons with lights and lasers it was almost comical. Duct taping a Maglite to your rifle was pretty much the best option you had available.
Fast forward to today's time and you are hard pressed to find a firearm that can't be equipped with a laser or light option, and
Crimson Trace is one of the primary reasons why that is the case. It pretty much goes without saying that Crimson Trace has had a huge impact on the gun industry over their relatively short 17 years of existence. They have changed the way we view personal defense and tactical firearms as well as the training and tactics that goes along with it. They have changed the way manufacturers design their guns and how they are marketed to the public, and law enforcement... and now they have just launched a product to the marketplace that I believe will once again be a game changer. I think that very shortly down the road we are going to see that the
Crimson Trace Lightguard is going to do for handgun mounted lights what their innovative approach to lasers has done for handgun mounted lasers.
