Help us get GREEN laser grips

[magnumb]

Crimson Trace (owned by S&W) makes great laser grips, but unfortunately only one in GREEN for the J Frame. There are countless K, L, and N frames out there that are limited to RED only. These are useless in daylight. Many revolver owners and enthusiasts are over age 40 and cannot effectively focus on their iron sights. Lasers are a great benefit IMHO. If Crimson Traces develops just two or three models, a huge variety of revolvers can be served. One model (LG 207) supports K/L/N round and square, but RED only.

After speaking to Crimson Trace sales and marketing the suggested that I request a new model on their website, and even better encourage others to do the same. If you want a green laser for your revolver please support the cause by going to the website below and requesting a new model. Together we have a voice. Thanks, Magnumb.

Help us get Green Laser Grips for S&W

I am trying to facilitate new capability for the many, many folks over 40 that own revolvers. Most, if not all of us suffer from presbyopia (reduced accommodation, or flexing of the lens to allow near vision without assistance). Sure you can crane your neck back and look though your bifocal or progressive lens, but then you are in a poor shooting and defensive posture, and have much reduced peripheral awareness and ability to track the bad guy. For arm length distances this does not come into play, but how about 30 ft down the hallway?

Some might conclude to buy a semi auto and spray and pray; every one of those rounds goes somewhere, and with my 6 shots I also want to make every one count. Anyone without a bias on their favorite round knows shot placement is the key to defense and incapacitation. Give me one or two well placed shots please. The laser helps immensely with that, but Red lasers are useless in daylight outdoors.

For those not well versed in electro-optics, it's not a simple thing to create a green laser. Green lasers do not directly emit green light, rather the invisible light of an IR laser is doubled in frequency. This process is much less efficient, uses more power, and takes up more space for optics and batteries, thus a different mold is required to house the components for a green laser.

If you don't want or like lasers, fine with me, but INHO they are a great benefit to many, especially if they have a few grey hairs up top.
