It is bigger and weights more than it needs to be, and gives me the impression that this product idea and design started life as a really good solid (if heavy and large comparatively) product design but then corners started to be cut and with that what makes a good stable and tough laser sight went away. Although it pretty much held an acceptable zero for a while it is not a long term reliability laser and not one I would trust my life to. Someone had given me one that he got as a door prize at a gun show, so mounted it up and out to the range. Pinty: Contrary to what I had initially thought and oddly enough it was kind of OK for a while and I actually kind of liked it. If you are looking to purchase an ADE item, don't. They are sort of deceptive in their advertisement, for example, they advertise for some of their hand gun red dots '1 MOA click adjustment with audible clicks' when in reality that's not true and its juts a screw adjustment that needs an additional locking screw tightening that does not hold long at all - when this is pointed out to them all they do is admit it but do not provide a refund and will not correct their deceptive advertising. Others have related to me things they ordered from them were not new but were used and had been re-boxed and were missing things that should have been in the box. I found them difficult to deal with for correction of defective products, they tend towards wanting to hand out 'fixes' and replacements rather than just give a refund for an obviously defective product. I also previously had a chance to try one of their red dot reflex sights on one of my Glocks - it was not a fun time.

The first one would not hold zero no matter what was done - the second just stopped working after several rounds - the third one was DOA and this was actually a reboxed used one that was scratched and banged up a lot. In fact tried three of them because they kept failing on me and the company kept sending replacements. I've tried some of the lasers in your article.Īde Advanced Red Laser: - Ughhhh. The LaserMax - after a few thousand rounds on each of those rifles I found the LaserMax zero still exactly where I put it the day I zeroed them and have not budged one little bit and has never quit on me. But when I put two more rifles in play I was once again shopping for lasers and decided on the LaserMax Spartan green lasers this time because I could get them for less than the CMR-206 and I had gotten first hand reports from a few others of their reliability to hold zero and keep on working and they were overall comparable in weight and size (+/- some minor amount) for my purpose/desires. I liked the size and weight which is what originally attracted me to it. I have two Crimson Trace CMR-206's on two different rifles.
