The attachment pad is a bit small and the glue is marinnal. The coil wire is nice, but a option of a stright wire (maybe 6"long) would be very useful for installations close to the handle.

I bought one of these after having read the other reviews. So it was no supprise when the adhesive on the velcro failed right out of the box. If you are going to purchase one of these have your own adhesive velcro and it will work like a champ. The pressure switch works great. I have had no problems with it.

I didn't expect much out of this switch. so much so, that i ordered 2, in the hopes that one of them worked. Well, the first one worked and has worked quite well for a couple months now. Havent even had to open the second package.

For four bucks u are getting what u pay for, it works as needed but it is 4 dollar quality. The velcro fell off right when i opened it, but i was able to find some very adhesive replacement velcro that worked great! would recomment but with the advise of grabbing some better velcro to be prepared to replace the one provided. wish shipping was cheaper as well.

For the price you really cant beat this. The switch easily replaces the original toggle switch endcap on the NcStar rail mounted laser, and the pressure pad works well. The coiled wire is a bit cumbersome and, if not installed properly, can get in the way of the trigger, slide release, breakdown lever, etc. Also, the Adhesive used to secure the Velcro for the pressure switch is weaker than the Velcro itself and WILL tear off. If you want to accessorize a target pistol this is a very economical choice, but if you need absolute life or death reliability, look for something more high-end.

These switches are different than preavious ones I have purchsed from same manufactureer.. these have 2 small contact switches that work really well..better than the copper pad contact in the earlier ones.. I really don't understand the coiling of the wire ..for the application the wire should be straight .. other wize a real affordable remote ..
