Reviews & Ratings for NcSTAR Tactical Red Laser Pistol Sight w/ Trigger Guard Mount — 5 reviews — Page 1

The trigger guard mounted NcStar Laser is a disappointment for a few reasons. Let's begin with putting in the batteries. The instructions speak to a spring loaded battery door release cover that pops out to put in the batteries and the Door is NOT sprung and will not "pop up" as stated in the instructions. Next up is mounting it: it's difficult at best. The way you mount itis you have to find the right combinations of wedges that are provided to angle the laser correctly forward. these wedges are Lego like in appearance but they do not lock in place. you have to glue or tape them on to hold them in place to mount the laser. DO NOT USE Tape as a permanent solution because it will be too smooth on the trigger guard and cause it to move. I suggest tape to get the proper fitting, then use something like Playdoh to secure the wedges long enough to mount it. If you glue it you won't be able to use it on a different pistol. Mounting it leads to the next issue: the plastic is not the strongest as my 1st one broke sitting on the trigger guard. It started to move and when i checked to see if it loosened the plastic cracked apart. NcStar did replace it for me but that made me leery of keeping it on once I mounted it again. Last issue: trigger guard mount was not wide enough to fit my trigger guard (Ruger P94) and because of that it never fully seated properly. My solution was a blade to trim off enough to be able to seat it properly. The laser works just fine and can be adjusted just fi...

While good in theory, and very inexpensive, this unit does not live up to any expectations. While I admit that the sight's limitations were stated in the description, and I purchased it anyway, I did not expect the piece that fastens the sight to the trigger guard to snap in half while I was trying to tighten it. The wedges used to adjust the angle of the sight relative to the frame of the firearm just do not do the job, they are not form-fitting enough, and they are too hard to conform to the curve of the trigger guard. This leaves the sight, no matter how carefully positioned, pointed either down at the ground, or pointed up at the muzzle, and off to one side or the other, way beyond what can be corrected with the windage & elevation adjuster screws. This was an attempt to mount it on a 1911 government model, not on a pistol with exotic lines on the trigger guard.

this product works as advertised and pretty easy to mount. pretty handy though it won't fit a normal holster. a good deal and a great price. an excellent choice for a economical laser sight. a reference to holster makers who fit for this product would be nice
