The Crimson Trace LG-436 Laserguard transforms Glock compact and subcompact pistols into precision instruments with instant target acquisition. This red laser sight mounts directly to the trigger guard, providing shooters with enhanced accuracy in low-light conditions and high-stress situations. The integrated design maintains the pistol's original profile while delivering reliable laser projection.
What Makes This Different
The LG-436 features Crimson Trace's patented instinctive activation system that engages the laser through natural grip pressure. Unlike rail-mounted alternatives that add bulk and require separate switches, this trigger guard-mounted unit activates automatically when the firearm is gripped properly. The red laser provides excellent visibility in indoor environments and moderate outdoor lighting conditions, with a 50-yard effective range for tactical applications.
Key Features
- Instinctive activation responds to natural firing grip without manual switches
- Fits Glock 19, 23, 32, 38 (Gen 1-4) and Glock 26, 27, 33, 39 models
- Red laser diode produces 5mW maximum output at 633-650 nanometer wavelength
- Windage and elevation adjustments allow precise zero at various distances
- Polymer construction matches Glock frame materials and finish
- Four-hour continuous runtime on single 1/3N lithium battery
- Compatible with most holsters designed for standard Glock frames
Field performance demonstrates consistent accuracy improvements, particularly in defensive shooting scenarios where split-second target acquisition matters most. The laser maintains zero through hundreds of rounds, withstanding recoil forces and environmental conditions typical of duty and concealed carry use. Weather-resistant construction handles moisture and temperature variations without losing calibration or brightness.
