I've also had the CT and Lasermax trigger guard units. I don't rely on a laser but do feel there are situations where they are very useful. Personally, I don't want it to come on automatically when I grip the gun. I got my Lasermax for $79 shipped, a much better deal. The CT is a little better built, but I've never had any problems with either. As a Bonus, the Lasermax looks like it is a factory part of the gun.

One more thing about the CT laserguard. The way that on-button is situated, it's sometimes activated by my belt when it's IWB and I'm moving around (I carry appendix, right side). I've run the batteries down that way a couple times...

I have the LaserMax installed on my Shield .40. I ordinarlily do not use it at the range. I do occasionally use it in conjunction with Laser Ammo when dry firing. Line up the LaserMax on the target and use the Laser Ammo to verify where the round would hit, in the same spot as the laser ammo. I don't want to depend on the LaserMax, but would use it if necessary in a night incident. I also have the XS Sight System mounted. So night events are pretty well covered. The LaserMax is just an extra. In a close selfdefense situation I doubt if you would want to take time to use it.

Cabela's has the Lasermax for $69.88. LaserMax Centerfire[emoji769] Pistol Laser : Cabela's You can get free ship to store, if you have a store nearby. Or you can get free shipping on a $99+ order. Toss in some ammo.--Bob

I find it at Cabela's for LCP only.

I like the TLR6 [ame]https://www.amazon.com/Streamlight-69273-Tactical-Flashlight-Integrated/dp/B0188YF8KQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1501469793&sr=1-1&keywords=tlr+6+shield[/ame] , but I was actually looking for a flashlight and the laser was a bonus. I did have to zero the laser in, which was pretty easy. Used it at the range a bunch of times, and batteries are still going.

My thinking is that confrontations could happen in less than well lit places.

I like the TLR6 Amazon.com: Streamlight 69273 TLR-6 Tactical Pistol Mount Flashlight 100 Lumen with Integrated Red Aiming Laser for M&P Shield 40/Shield 9, Black: Home Improvement , but I was actually looking for a flashlight and the laser was a bonus.

Second for the TLR-6. Have been using one for over a year now and find it to be a nice and compact package, plus holsters are easier to find now.

Bought the Crimson Trace for my 9mm Shield PC at the NRA annual meeting in Atlanta. Show discount and a $50 rebate was hard to resist. I liked the pact that there was no on-off switch. Just grasp the gun and it works. My wife and I both like it.

The only guns I have with a laser are my carry S & W 442 and 642 revolvers. My 40 cal. Shield is my primary gun though. I would like to have CT's for all my MP's and probably will someday. I like the laser grips instead of under the barrel. A CT or Lasermax sit right under the barrel making my present holsters obsolete. That is my only objection to this type of laser.
