The Crimson Trace LG-870 Lasersaddle transforms any Remington 870 or TAC-14 into a precision-aimed tactical platform with instant target acquisition capabilities. This specialized laser sight mounts directly to the shotgun's forend without requiring rails or permanent modifications. The integrated design maintains the weapon's streamlined profile while providing consistent shot placement in high-stress situations.
What Makes This Different
The LG-870 Lasersaddle features Crimson Trace's patented instinctive activation system that triggers automatically when gripping the forend naturally. Unlike rail-mounted lasers that add bulk and require separate switches, this unit integrates seamlessly into the shotgun's existing architecture. The laser projects a bright red dot visible up to 50 yards in daylight conditions and maintains zero through hundreds of rounds of heavy buckshot loads.
