Review Summary

I have multiple CT laser grips and guards and these fit my p229 elite perfect and snug. The laser stays spot on and is very easy to activate. My only minor issue is that these do add a bit more girth on the grip than I found on my 1911 ones. But still a good fit and grip for my hands. I recommend them completely

My first set is on my Sig P220 and these are now on my P229 Elite - and they are (IMHO) required equipment for civilian carry. I am nearsighted. These grips solve the vision problem completely, with or without glasses and give me a 5 inch group at 50 feet with one hand consistently with both the 220 (.45 ACP) and the 220=9 (.40 S&W).

I just installed the laser grip on my 229. The fit was perfect. The laser is spot-on with the iron sights at 25 yards. The grip is slightly larger than the factory, which is perfect for my hand. The texture is aggressive without being too aggressive. This is my fourth set of laser grips. (1911, J-frame, Governor, 229) I am happy with the other 3, I feel like I will be with these also. I hope Crimson Trace will make a grip mount laser for the Smith & Wesson M&P 9 2.0 in the very near future.

It only seemed logical that a grip set designed to fit both P228 and P229 would also work on the M11-A1 - and it did! Now if either the LG-429 or the LG-329 would become available in a green laser version. Ideally Mil Spec (waterproof) PLUS green laser. I'll keep checking in to see if LG-429MG, or at least LG-429G, is offered.

After reading other less satisfied reviews, maybe its all related. My experience with my Glocks, and Beretta were perfect. No issues. Customer service was great. My .40 cal P229 has had issues as mentioned above but the button was also hardly responsive. Crushing it is not great since aim is affected. Customer service told me its not covered, a few years old so I had to eat it and buy a new one if I chose. I have other sights that glow so I put it off out of dissatisfaction. Makes me not want to get anymore knowing such a costly and important thing can be replaced in a couple of years on a gun that can last forever.

With aging eyes, the laser provides an immediate target feedback. Installation was completed in less than ten minutes, only because I didn't start with metric size tools. Fit and finish, initially I experienced a slight gap(1/32") a slight wiggle and backing off the L/ side grip screws and the problem was resolved and remained tight after tightening all four screws. This is my primary weapon for carry, home defense and adding the Crimson Trace Laser increases my survivability rate substantially.

When I ordered the LG-429 I didn't think it would be as easy to install as it turned out to be. I have told all of my shooting buddies what a great product you sell and the excellent results I had using it. Thank you for get this product in the field.

Received my first set of Crimson Trace Laser grips just a few days ago and so far not a problem and all I hoped they would be. The quick assembly instructions were a big help to get started as I like to delve right in when I get a new toy. All the parts and screws seem to all fit and work as a unit and have no problems so far. Haven't shot my weapon yet, so not sure if firing will cause any concerns. It still fits perfectly in my Serpa holster so I was happy with that. Inserts, locks, and draws just like before. All in all, well worth the expense. This was the red laser model. For my next purchase I am going to get the green laser for my 320 .45 ACP striker fired weapon when it comes out any month now.

This is my 5th set of Laser Grips, and the worst The ones for my 1911s and my S&W J Frame are great ... all 5 stars. The ones for the SIG P229 not so much. First, they are big ... 1/2" bigger around than the Elite grips that came with the SIG. Too big and bulky. Second, no grip screws. I had to call SIG and they sent me a set for free. Thirdly, the lower screws went through the frame too far and bound up the magazine. I had to put washers under them to make the magazine drop free. Seems they need to put a little more material in the mounting hole to raise the screws away from the frame. Overall, I'd say a redesign is in order. I'm not happy. I'm considering a rod guide laser so I can put the original grips back.

I have over 17 Crimson Trace grips & rail models, for both pistols andwheel guns . This model I found fit & quality 5 stars But since I have a 229 with the plastic snap on grip - I did not have stock screws to install the laser. Down to 4 stars since I f feel that depending on a 3rd party so I can install this grip is a bit much. A option should be offered so the grip can be ordered with screws (cost past on ) . 3 stars I have never had a laser grip that altered the feel of the gun so much ,With the stock snap on grip the gun was sleek and very slim & compact, this grip entirely changed the feel of the gun, to me made it feel clumsy and gave me the feel of holding a 226 not the compact 229 I am used to.

The ease of installation surprised me, even on my new P229 that came with a snap on grip with no grip screws. Fit and finish are top notch. I continue to be pleased with the quality of CTC products.

Not sure why other reviewers have had problems, but the product is perfect for me. The fit is absolutely spot on. The grips are slightly wider than the factory Sig grips, but they actually feel better to me than the factory grips. The accuracy was perfect, right out of the box. The only slight negative with this type of laser is that you need to keep your trigger finger slightly lower when in the "safe" position so as not to block the laser. This product is easy to use and I was able to put the laser on the target MUCH quicker than I coud aim with the Sig sights. At night, or without my glasses, it's a no-brainer.

Wish CTC would hurry up and make the same laser for my compact Xdm .45

I too have had many of the older CT grips that fit close and comfortable. These they just seem to be sloppy, right at the point where dirt and dust might come in. At the range I was using a lot of somewhat dirty ammo and found the power did get in and under that diod and its now all cloudy. I am sending them back and ask that they either fix them correctly or give me a set like my old ones that fit and function as before. I carry my weapon all the time LE but in civilian clothing.

This is my 4th set of CTC grips. The 1st 3 were “5 Star” grips, but these are a disappointment. When I installed these grips there was a 1/16” gap between the right grip panel and the weapon frame behind the laser module. I contacted CTC and was told “The gapping that I see from your photos is very normal. That tiny gap on the back of the grip shouldn't cause any issues with snagging in the future. I haven't had anyone contacting me regarding a similar issue. You shouldn't have any problems.” I am a law enforcement officer and these grips would have been on my duty weapon, but due to the fit and the possibility for water and dust intrusion, I have difficulty having confidence in this particular set of grips. Even as they are, the grips are sighted in and line up with the iron sights at 50’ as advertised. This is not a blanket condemnation of CTC products. As I said earlier, the first 3 sets of grips are “5 Star” and I plan to equip the rest of my handguns with CTC grips as finances permit. I will however test fit them on the weapons prior to purchase.
