Crimson Trace has been a leader in the firearm-mounted laser sight industry from the start, and its innovative and diverse catalog of products continues “To enhance people’s ability to protect family, home and country.” One of the company’s first products was a set of M1911 stocks equipped with a red laser sight and an internal battery compartment. Today’s line of Crimson Trace Lasergrips for M1911s is both wide and deep, reflecting the myriad upgrades and customizations currently popular for the venerable handgun platform.
