The on button seems to be sensitive to the angle you push it. Sometimes had to fumble around to get it on.

I love the Crimson Laser. It makes the gun a no brainer to hit your target. I purchased one for my wifes CC gun as well.

Cons:  No disable switch, harder to find open carry holsters.
Would recommend:  yes

Overall, this is an outstanding product. Fit and finish matches the pistol very well, and operation is automatic when simply held firmly. Laser has not required adjustment since installation in the 300 rounds I've used it. I do wish it had a disable switch like the 1911 laser grips so I could practice without it, but this may not be an issue for others. The lasergaurd does prevent the use of common hard holsters, but since this is my pocket or IWB weapon, it's a non-issue for me. It also fits the soft holsters I already have for my Crimson'd LC9.

The laser was easy to install and get dialed in at my local range. This model could use a master switch to shut the laser off just to help preserve the battery life. Other than that the laser is excellent! Probably the first of many lasers to be purchased.

Great as a training aid! Made it easy to show my little girl the result of pull the trigger vs squeezing the trigger.

Easy to install and use. Had to send in my first one when there was a problem. Very quick response from Crimson Trace. Installed and ready to shoot in about two weeks. Not much more than shipping time.

This laser fits the XD-S perfectly. There are even ridges that snap in between grip surfaces. Easy to install and sight in. The two down sides are the lack of an on-off switch. When practicing with the sights you still have to use the laser. You also lose the area in front of the trigger guard for gripping with your non-shooting hand. Laser grips are not an option with this pistol. In bright sun the laser isn't visible at 10 yards. Those are the down sides; the up side is ease of use, perfect for all self defense situations (especially low light). The batteries for life option is nice, but you have to call and request the batteries every year. I recommend this product for a self defense gun, but not as a range shooter. The holster is pretty low end but worth the $10 extra if you need a pocket holster.

This laser was super easy to install on my XDS. It works great and needed very little adjustment after mounting. Instinctive activation works great. This is a great value, easily installed laser.
