Beaverton, OR - August 3, 2006: Crimson Trace Corporation is pleased to add yet another revolver Lasergrip to its ever-growing stable. The LG-344 is a unique Lasergrip that fits the Ruger GP-100 and the Ruger Super Redhawk line of revolvers.
The new LG-344 has several features that make it unique even in our lineup. One distinction of the LG-344 is that it is constructed of a rubber overmold with removable inserts. It comes with checkered black hard-polymer inserts that can be removed and replaced with the stock wood panels that typically come with the pistol. Unlike any other of our handgun Lasergrips, the LG-344 uses a CR123 battery for up to 20 times the run time of our other Lasergrips. That means about 80 hours of constant on. That is more than enough battery life to last a good 5 years of regular shooting. Other features that have been integrated into these Lasergrips are a storage space for the Allen wrench that adjusts the laser sight as well as a slot for the Ruger disassembly pin.
The grip itself has three distinct finger grooves molded into the front of the grip for added purchase and offers the latest front activation switch to give users ambidextrous, instinctive activation. The master on/off switch is located conveniently on the bottom of the grip.
The LG-344 has been torture tested at the range with the Ruger Super RedHawk Alaskan chambered in the powerful .480 Ruger. We used COR®BON 275gr DPX to make sure the Lasergrip could take the recoil of the larger caliber revolvers. Even after hundreds of rounds of this powerful cartridge, the Lasergrip held true to Zero. Targeted retail price on the Model LG-344 is $299.00.

Lightening Fast Target acquisition
You'll shoot faster and more precisely than you ever thought possible with a handgun. Lasergrips clear, bright, long-lasting laser beam puts you on target at the speed of light.
Repeatable Pinpoint Accuracy
Tack-driving accuracy time after time. The laser adjusts easily and holds point of aim through thousands of rounds of fire.
Enhanced Field of Vision
Now you can confidently focus on the target instead of the gun-our natural reaction whenever we're under pressure.
A Proven Powerful Deterrent
The powerful presence of Lasergrips in self defense and law enforcement encounters has frequently de-escalated the threat and eliminated the need to shoot.
At Crimson Trace, we believe you should always be able to sight and shoot a handgun without a laser. This new technology was never meant to replace your fixed sights, but to supplement them in difficult situations-like firing on the move or from awkward positions, defending yourself in close quarters, aiming in low light where iron sights are difficult to see, and any time that you're under stress. Under these kinds of conditions, our natural and automatic reaction is to focus on the threat, not the gun-sights
