I just received my Crimson Trace LG350 with green laser option. I do not get paid by, or represent Crimson Trace in any capacity.
The LG350 model is much more ergonomic than the LG 305 series. They are also a bit larger and far more recoil absorbing than any of the other models offered by Crimson Trace. Pay attention if you pocket carry due to size. Overall, the new grips fit my hand (XL glove) like they were made for me. I would choose them over the LG305's all day and use the LG405 series for pocket carry.
The activation switch requires a bit of practice as it is larger and more recessed than any other model.
The green laser requires 4 ea. 2016 batteries with a constant "on" life of two hours. Batteries are free for life from CT if you register your product.
Shooting .357 loads from my 640 was a pleasure and once dialed in, keeping everything in a 2" square @30' was a no brainer if you forgo your coffee until after range time.
The green laser could be spotted clearly at well over 100 yards in daylight out my back door. I did try some 75' shots and could keep them all in a 8-1/2 x 11" paper but no better than that with the 2" barrel and double action only gun.
Does anyone really need the green model on a short range SD gun? Probably not, as the red ones would work very well and cost about $80 less than the green option. I carry my 640 a lot for work and may be called on to put a round exactly where intended in all levels of light so I would buy the green again in a heartbeat.
Remember, if you are a certified NRA instructor, call CT directly for special pricing.
Here is the lineup.
