Reviews & Ratings for Crimson Trace Front Activation Compact Laser Guard for Kahr — 62 reviews — Page 1

I love my Kahr Pm 9 and this is the first crimson trace laser I’ve ever seen listed for it. It wasn’t much of an issue with me before but now with my ailing eyesight I honestly thought I’d have to switch to a pistol with a laser. The install was quick and easy and required very little zeroing in to my sights.

With my CW9. I had a bad case of the laser moving off point just carrying in my pocket.
CT rep told me to just whack it on a hard surface before using.
What an intolerable response!
I've been trying to rectify the situation for a couple years.
I finally figured it out.
Remove the CT clamshell and remove the torx screw that retains the cover for the laser diode.
Drill a small hole through that cover so that you can look through it to see the diode.
Replace the cover and torx screw.
Remount the laser sight to the pistol.
Place the gun in a vise and set the laser sight to agree with a laser bore sighter, further the better.
Dismount the laser sight and with a hot glue gun, inject hot glue into the hole you made.
This locks the diode in place. If you have to take it apart again, the glue can be removed with a pick, it doesn't stick.
Remount the sight on the gun and verify the aim.
I'm happy with the product now.

This laser works perfectly on my Kahr pistol. The sight is easy to install and the instinctive activation works well. The use of a laser will help a person get on target very fast, and is a great aid in low light situations when fixed sights are not very visible. I have several firearms equipped with Crimson Trace lasers, as well as blue plastic training guns. Crimson Trace lasers are the best on the market and well worth the money. The pocket holster that came with the laser works well.

Great laser, just wish it was available with green laser. Simple and quick installation. Easy to use and adjust. Add Truglo TFO sights for the near perfect carry firearm. Had to finally get one with the offer of the rebate.

This is my second Crimson Trace product of this type. I now have one for my Glock and my pm9. This is an excellent compliment to a quality firearm. It makes target acquisition easier in difficult situations It is simple to install, easy to adjust and intuitive to actuate. It's a tough task to make a usable laser for a small firearm. I have tried other lasers but I always go back to Crimson Trace.

The Crimson Trace Front Activation laser is the least cumbersome and most accurate of any add on exterior laser sighting made for the Kahr P9/CM9 series pistols. With the additional space requirement for the device, my custom Kahr P9 holster had to be reworked, however, the standard holsters were no problem -- fit just fine. It takes a little bit of careful assembly to install it the first time as it is a two piece device that clips on to the trigger guard. Once installed correctly, it is solid and won't move.
Adjusting the laser beam to the gun site is very easy if you have a gun vice or other clamp to steady the pistol. It requires the use of the allen wrench provided. You can quickly adjust the light to the sight at 20 to 30 feet -- optimum for the P9. If you need to sight it out farther than 50 feet, you have the wrong weapon. Great light power and battery life. Just make sure your holster isn't built to activate the light switch when the weapon is holstered.

I purchased this laser for my wife for Christmas(which she liked). The laser was placed on a kahr CW 40 and the fit was perfect. The laser gives her a quick sight advantage if the situation ever arises where she may have defend herself.

Works great, good fit, nice and bright. Easy to mount, looks great on Kahr P40. Planning to add one for my Kahr CM9. Fast delivery from Optics Planet, very satisfied with purchase. Would recommend this sight and company.

I've already got a Crimson Trace Laserguard on my Ruger LCP and Kahr P380. So this Laserguard for my Kahr PM9 is my third one. The first two Laserguard on my .380 pistols are just wonderful. They were easy to install and fit perfectly.

This Laserguard for PM9, however, is NOT as good in terms of the fit. The two halves of the plastic frame are warped due to poor molding. As the result, they do not fit the gun's trigger guard as they should leaving a huge gap between the two halves. Even if you force them to be put on the trigger guard, you still cannot close the two halves with the two screws.

I had to file and sand inside rail and also use my heat gun to fit the two halves. After a couple of hours of struggle, the whole thing is secure finally, and it is working. But I can still see a small gab between the two halves that I don't see with other two Laserguards....

I'm a big fan of CT Laserguard, but until Crimson Trace rectify the fitness issue of this particular model, I will NOT recommend it to others.

Excellent for concealed carry. Very highly recommended. This product allows you to get on target very quickly. It also allows you to have follow-up shots on multiple targets if necessary. The adjustment screws are easy to use to set up for accuracy. I highly recommend Crimson trace laser's for handgun personal defense
