Questions & Answers
Will it fit first gen MP shield 9mm Expert Answer

Because the M&P Shield 1.0 is not optics ready, you will not be able to directly mount this optic. You can have your slide milled for an RMSc footprint, which would then allow you to install this optic. Or you can purchase an optic ready 2.0 slide and install it on your frame.

Does this turn itself on when gun is removed from holster? Expert Answer

The Crimson Trace CT-RAD Micro Red Dot Sight does not use an auto-on feature. It will always be on once the battery is installed and will automatically adjust the brightness based on the available ambient light. The Crimson Trace CT-RAD Micro Pro model, however, does use an auto-on function that automatically turns the optic on when it detects motion. This model can be found by using the link below:

Product Info for Crimson Trace CT-RAD Micro Red Dot Sight

The CT RAD Micro (Rapid Aiming Dot) Electronic Sight is an ultra-compact Open Reflex Sight for compact and subcompact pistols. Featuring a red 3 MOA aiming dot, the CT RAD Micro has a recessed and fully multi-coated lens with a large quick acquisition window. The CT RAD Micro comes with the CT RADIANT Ambient Light Sensor that automatically adjusts the aiming dots brightness to the surrounding lighting condition. The Micro is easily installed on an optics cut slide using the CT micro footprint that is also compatible with the Shield RMS and JPoint footprints.image

The Micro has a rear sight notch cut into the back to line up with your front iron sight. Made of 7075 Series Aerospace Aluminum, it is 30% stronger than most industry standard sights made with 6061 Series Aluminum. The entire CT RAD family has an Innovative top strap design that deflects force if the sight is dropped. Our engineers developed a better way to reduce stress on the lens of reflex sights. By combining out-of-the-box thinking with next-level physics, we designed a system that both re-enforces your optic and reduces stress if it happens to get dropped. All this comes with our CRIMSON Protect Lifetime Warranty.
