Quality and Value

I bought my CMR-208 from Amazon for $20 less than offered here, an excellent value for this light. Mounts securely in just a few minutes and is very bight, with intuitive button depress options (long press momentary, short press activation). Requiring the user to press both buttons for mode selection is a great design, as it prevents accidental mode change during use. Would recommend to anyone.

Got mines of Optics Planet for 60 bucks...

Pretty good light. My only con is I'm on my 3rd battery in 3 months and don't use the light that much. But it works well and looks good also.

Great light

Got mines from Midway Usa for about 50 bucks. Pretty more bright than most expensive ones and has more functions, like the strobe.

Failed during first range visit

1. Light failed to remain on after only 10-16 rounds at the range 2. Replaced battery, same results 3. E-mailed customer support 3 times with in 5 days, no response 4. Contacted customer support via FB messenger, no response 5. Called customer support 3 times, on hold more then 25-30 min each time, gave up. Crimson Trace, check your records and it will confirm my claims. I understand that any manufacturer can have a defective unit from time to time but your customer support failed me 7 times. I returned the light to Shoot Straight Tampa where I purchased it for a full refund and picked up a tlr1 for $50 more. Should’ve done that in the first place. Recommendation: I was not looking for perfection in a $70-80 light, but I do expect you to honor your warranty or customer support claims! **COVID-19

One Thing is Missing

This Is a Superb little light, and I purchased 2, 1 for my 9mm, and 1 for my 40 S&W (both are the Beretta PX4 STORM / STORM compact, respectively) and they fit great, and throw enough light to do a quick perimeter sweep of the yard before I go inside the house after work. Now as I said, there is One Thing Missing, a BATTERY CHARGER that comes with the light. I found, and purchased, a charger for the battery model at walmart that came with 4 batteries for a little over $30. But I'm not sure if the Charger is Crap, of if the Batteries are Crap, Because I have a Total of 6 batteries and only ONE battery currently holds a decent enough charge to light up the dark of night, and when that one goes out what am I gonna do? Wait for 2-3 weeks to send in the old batteries and get new ones, or go looking for a different charger? I know what is faster, but will the problem lie in a faulty charger, or in faulty Batteries? That is the Question . . . Personally, I would not have minded paying an extra $20 per unit just so that the light came with a Battery Charger. Device, Check. Instructions, Check. Battery, Check. Packing Material, Check. Battery Charger, nope.

Great Product & Service

Got the CMR-208 Tactical light as a free promotion for purchasing a CTC laser. The light is compact and works well on both handgun and rifle. Light is bright enough for most applications. Customer service is great. I somehow lost the screw for the bolt that holds the light to the rail. Called the company and the courteous woman I spoke with checked that the part was available in inventory and said it would be sent right out! I'm impressed.

Great product!

Just installed this on my FN FNX 45 fits perfectly and functions work as good or better than others costing 3 times as much. Very satisfied with my purchase.

IMPRESSED

I just picked this up today for my CZ Scorpion. It will be used in a home defense mode and it fits great! Installed it on the lower pic rail and can easily reach the controls with my thumb for activation. I have a smaller home and this light seems a perfect fit for lighting up all areas within range for target identification and acquisition. I was skeptical because of only 420 lumens with so many other lights out with higher lumen output but, it seems able to throw out enough light and am sure will work out for us! Not sure how to register yet or possibly get batteries for life but, may have to contact CTC at their customer service number.

Might be the best

I have 2 of these which i got for free after getting lasers for other guns. They might be my favorite light available. Nice hot-spot, plenty of lumens, function like inforce lights but brighter with crimson trace name/tech behind them. Might be the most robust adjustable mounting system out there.

Amazing!

Recently bought it for my Sig sauer SP2022, and its absolutely amazing. Really worth the buy! Its 3 modes really were the kicker for me, since on high it puts out 420 lumens, and on low its about 110. I love the strobe feature!.

Screws made of butter.

I don't know if Crimson Trace took a torque wrench to this thing, but the little screws you have to move to adjust the slider bar, are so tight that I couldn't remove them without stripping these cheap screws. with the small and ineffectual screw driver they supply, which wouldn't be a big deal, as I would use one of my own screw drivers, except that they decided that an extremely small and very specialized screw driver would be the way to go. So no dice, will probably return it tomorrow. Other than that, the light seems well built and the 400 lumen light is pretty bright and looks great.

Great on my AR!

I received this free after I purchased a laser light combo for my wife's P22. I got it in a week which was amazing since I sent the receipt by snail mail in the first place. I dont have my PPQ yet so I put it on my AR to try it out. First it installed in seconds - super easy. Then much to my surprise, with the paddle switches, I can easily turn it on and off without moving my hand from the handguard (I was sure I needed something with a pressure switch and stuff - but now I wont have to worry about any of that extra stuff!). It is bright - almost too bright for what I wanted on my AR - but with the dimmed mode (110 lumens) it is perfect - and I have the option of brighter and strobe should I need it! I love this light and recommend it for everyone!

Perfect for My Bedroom Gun

Love it! Wanted a weapons light for my "bedroom gun" that was instinctive and simple to manipulate if woken up in the middle of the night. Hold the tab down in momentary during search mode. Tap the tab for constant on upon discovery. Hope I never have to use it. .
