I've got the CS45 and don't think Crimson Trace has any grips for the CS's and probably don't have plans to add to their line up.

I also don't think LaserMax makes a product for the CS's either.

I'd love it if CT made grips for it. I have them on my M&P.

I just ordered night sights for mine & mostly am posting to see if anyone does know of practical laser option for the CS line.

Good luck to us both...

euroturk, The CS line is great but not extremely popular - not many others own them as I can see.
I'm very happy with my CS45 and would not want give it up but - with all the 9mm's out there what led you to purchase your CS9 out of all the other choices of 9mm's out there??

Hi Tom.I can answer that one.When I first looked at Glock rule #1 of firearns training screamed at me,"Never dry fire a weapon".That is just what you do to break it down.Next came when my friends dog destroyed the frame of his by using it as a tuggie toy.That left me with a alloy frame single stack 9mm with mag release safety.Having small hands the CS9 was made for me.Now I am going to make the same suggestion to this CS9 owner.....If you get the night sights the tendency to shoot low goes out the window and it is dead on.Also consider Big Dog's Delrin grips as they make it infinitely more carryable........Sorry for the threadjack....Mike

Cr:

I've never bought night sights before, what brand do you recommend? Also I was looking at the "Big Dot" Express sights, but apparently there is not one for the CS9.

Thanks!

Jesse

I think every CS will accept the same sights; If that is the case - this link will go to a place that has them on clearance sale...

http://www.botachtactical.com/trijiconsa30.html

Cruiser RN can verify if this is the same ones that fit his.

When looking at the midway sight the front and rear night nights for the CS9 ARE NOT compatible with either the CS40 or the CS45.Midway lists all models these sights can be used with and niether the cs40 or cs45 is listed.That being said go to http://www.midwayusa.com/ and put cs9 as the search engine.The front Trijiton night sight is 52.99 product # is 941221 Rear night sight is 114.99 and product # is 312842.If there is a 60 day backorder they do not charge card until shipped to you......God Bless........MIke

Hello again everyone.After some searching found a rail mounted laser sight that is supposed to work with the CS9 pistol.It is the Uni-Max Green laser system made by Lasermax.When I googled this I was refered to this sight from a old issue of Guns and AMMO magazine.I tried to verify this from going to the Lasermax site but I couldn't find a search engine there to match laser sight with gun model.Here is the link for Lasermax and I would strongly suggest verifying these facts before purchasing any laser sight. http://www.lasermax.com/product.php?id=104 .It is this nurses humble opinion that the $$ would be better spent buying Night Sights to correct the tendency of the CS9 to shoot low.After getting the CS9 I thought it was my lack of semi-auto experience for it hitting consistently low,but I had 4 of my fellow NRA Pistol Instructors try it and ALL had the same results with the Novak Sights.After the Trijiton Night sight installation it is 100% Dead On.I find myself grabbing my CS9 for carry over my 640,who would have thought it????.....God BLess.......Mike

Bugger, My CS45 doesn't have an accessory rail.
