LaserLyte Training Pistol

By Richard on November 23, 2012 No Comments

LaserLyte Trigger Tyme

LaserLyte has a new training pistol:  the Trigger Tyme.  If you read the marketing materials on the training gun, it would seem to be an ideal tool, especially for Glock shooters.  But does it live up to that description?

LaserLyte Kryptonyte Center Mass Shotgun Laser

By Richard on November 2, 2012 3 Comments

LaserLyte Kryptonyte shotgun laser

The new LaserLyte Kryptonyte Center Mass shotgun laser is definitely a step away from traditional laser sighting systems.  The Center Mass system projects nine laser dots: eight in a circular pattern with the final dot in the center of the ring.  The idea is to provide the shooter a visual representation of where the shot will strike.

The farther away the target, the larger the circle.  The approximate spread is 1″ per yard of distance.  While not exact, this is a relatively decent approximation that has been taught to defensive shotgun shooters using traditional 00-buck loads in an 18″ barrel pump gun.

LaserLyte Laser for Springfield XD

By Richard on February 22, 2012 1 Comments

LaserLyte Springfield XDLaserLyte announced the re-introduction of a rear sight laser for the Springfield XD and XD(M) pistols.  The LaserLyte rear sight lasers are a rear sight replacement that mounts a red laser at the back of the pistol’s slide.

The rear sight looks like the standard “box” rear sight found on Glock pistols, with two small barrels on either side of the sight.  The system seems to work well for many people.

Battery life is pretty good, with a stated run-time of five hours in normal use.  The laser also has a pulse mode, which extends battery life to 10 hours of use.

MSRP is $139.95, but Amazon currently has them for about $100.

From LaserLyte:

Leave it to LaserLyte® , the leader in laser technology for the shooting sports market for 25 years, to bring the best of two popular lasers into one single, simple and affordable laser; the LaserLyte® CK-SWAT. The side mounted laser fits on all of the Smith & Wesson J-frame revolvers ever made and all Taurus revolvers. And now, the Taurus Judges including the Public Defender finally has a laser system to call its own with the CK-SWAT laser.

LaserLyte Side Mount Laser for Ruger LC9

By Richard on November 21, 2011 16 Comments

LaserLyte Ruger LC9 LaserLaserLyte recently announced a new side mount laser for the Ruger LC9 handgun.  The laser unit is designed for easy installation and to fit in the majority of existing holsters.

The LaserLyte side mount laser is a red laser (650 nm) operating at 5 mW, which is typical for handgun lasers.  Green lasers, which tend to be more visible in daylight conditions, are frequently much more expensive than red lasers.

The LaserLyte operates on four 377 “button” batteries.  The batteries are supposed to operate for up to five hours if left on constantly.  According to the company, batteries are included.

LaserLyte RL-TS Laser for Taurus Slim

By Richard on August 26, 2010 No Comments

LaserLyte rear sight laser for the Taurus Slim pistols

LaserLyte officially announced the rear sight laser for the Taurus 709, 740, and 708 Slim pistols. As I previously posted, the RL-TS laser was shipped to me in advance of the notice, and a full review will be posted next week.

The new laser sight is similar to the previous models released by LaserLyte. The laser unit is incorporated into the rear sight, meaning it generally will not affect the use of any holsters you may already have for your Taurus Slim pistol. This is a huge advantage over some competing products.

The LaserLyte RL-TS has two modes: steady-on and pulse. The laser is red, and has an approximate run time of six hours.

Check back next week for a full review.  In the meantime, I have more photos below.

LaserLyte laser for Taurus Judge, other revolvers

By Richard on August 19, 2010 No Comments

LaserLyte announced a “side mount” laser for the Taurus line of revolvers, including the incredibly popular Taurus Judge.

LaserLte says the Side Mount Laser (SML) is easily mounted underneath the rubber grip of the revolver and allows the shooter to retain the factory or custom grips, and use the same holster as an unmodified gun.

Like LaserLyte’s other products, the SML has a constant on mode and a pulsing mode.  Battery life is rated for five hours in constant mode, and 10 hours in pulsing.

Installation appears to be very simple: simply remove the grip, screw the fitted side panel into place, and then replace the grips.

Large pictures below.
