Learn More Crimson Trace has introduced a new InfraRed (IR) laser sight product line for the civilian market. The product line includes the Rail Master mini laser, MVF-515 vertical foregrip, and Instinctive Activation Lasergrips for the 1911 and Glock pistols. MSRP ranges from $299 and $599. Crimson Trace subjected the new IR sights to the same rigorous testing protocols as their standard products, but in this instance went a little further. “Listening to our customers and the marketplace, adding these IR platforms to our commercial line up address consistent requests we receive as the market leader,“ said Kent Thomas, Director of Marketing for Crimson Trace. “In preparation for the launch, we field-tested the Rail Master’s performance on two Texas hog hunts this spring. In both cases, they turned in outstanding performances and surpassed our already high expectations on multiple weapon platforms in complete darkness.” Due to ITAR restrictions, these new IR sights are available from Crimson Trace's website, www.crimsontrace.com, select distributors and online retailers. www.crimsontrace.com Why you can trust RECOIL Since our founding in 2012, RECOIL remains the premier firearms lifestyle publication for the modern shooting enthusiast.
