Im left handed, where are the controls for the light and laser, are they all on or momemtary.Since I use my left finger for trigger I was wondering.

The laser is designed for left or right handed guns man. The laser itself is the red button which comes on/off by pressing it. The toggles switches on the end, nearest the trigger guard is how you turn the light on/off. The other button changes between constant and strobe

On and off are on the back end on both sides. There are additional adjustments on the left hand side and the laser on/off button. I've owned this for five years and I am on my second replacement. It has now broken at the rail attachment. I would not recommend this product.

Yes correct you would have to remove your finger from the trigger to operate the laser

The light controls are amadexterous to turn on the light. The red button you see is to activate the laser and the black changes the mode for the light from blinking to solid. It's really set up for left handers. Great product.

Controls for the light are in both sides of the back, however the laser and strobe setting are on the left side of the body

I found the easiest way to zero in the laser was to line it p with an already set sight and adjust from there. I used my EOTeck halogram and set the laser in line with the red dot on target. The advantague to using the pressure light switch is using the light/laser intermittantly mounted to a forwrd hand grip under thwe barrel. I used a zip tie to hold the switch in place and use my index finger to use the switch when I desire it.

You loop the cord around your belt or belt loop then through itself. Yes, it is ambidextrous I'm a left handed shooter myself.

Located on the bottom perfect for lefty or righty. See that little bump on the bottom below the name? That's it. It am AWESOME light. I have it mounted on a handgun, but it is easily transferable to any pica tinny rail system. Really Bright, I mean really bright. I don't know how long the battery life is. Its used for home defense purpose so not much more use than me screwing around with it. hope that helped.

When I got mine I wondered the same thing. At the rear of the laser is where the switch is. You can push it on and off from either side of the gun. It blends well with the laser and gun.

I have a laser on my gun. I turn the laser on and watch how much it moves as I pull the trigger. I try to control my trigger pull so that I get minimal movement of the laser off the "target". I do that once a week until my finger starts to hurt, to build muscle memory and personal confidence in my ability to keep the gun steady. With a short barrel like my 38 has a small amount of movement caused by sloppy trigger pull can be the difference between hitting your target and causing collateral damage in a self defense scenario.

There is a small button on the left side of the laser. Because it fits flush on the side of the laser (I imagine to prevent accidental shutoff when making contact with the holster), it does require a deliberate press to turn on/off. I have arthritis in my hands and I do not have any difficulty activating the button. However I would not want to do that in a defensive situation.

On most holsters when you highlight it gives you the option on color and what side carry. This one does not, unfortunately this is my biggest gripe on holsters. Companies need to think about the 10% of people that are left handed and would like all the options right handers get. You may have to shop direct from company

It is frustrating being left handed, all the pictures show right handed but it comes as a left handed holster

You'll have to work the holster a little by holstering and drawing your gun with light attached. It's rea snug at first and feels like the corners of the light are catching. After breaking in the holster the draw is much smoother. I haven't found another holster to suit my needs so it was worth the time it took to break in the holster. If you're really looking for a quick snag free set up round the corners and edges on the back side of your light/laser set up and reblue where you removed material. Good luck,I hope this helps

Yes, as a matter of fact i think there is a video about that. I have not done so yet but I believe that the trigger guard is attached to the front and swings both ways in case you are right or left handed and will go right back again if not used........I am going to buy a second one soon so we can actually shoot the first one. Nothing beats practice and seeing how it sprays/fires.............:) If you do this I would suggest doing so at a wall or something so you can see coverage and drop etc......

Yes but difficult to hold in combat position. Fingers can block laser light. You have to adjust your grip.

There is a push switch which is directly in front of the trigger guard, easily reached with your trigger finger. This would not work for a left handed shooter, but works great for right handed. I can turn it on, and were it necessary immediately have my finger on the trigger without changing my grip.

Mine is mounted at 3 o'clock so I can activate my light with my left thumb while in the shooting position. The switch for my light is on its rear end (Streamlight TLR-1s) so it works out perfect for me. Your results may vary. The nice thing is that you can put it just about anywhere it feels good to you. Good luck.

I'm not really sure. It depends on your individual grip and hand size. The picture of the laser position is fairly accurate, so you should be able to get a decent idea of whether you'll be blocking the apperature with your particular grip. I'm right handed, and the only problem I have is when I'm indexing, I tend to put my finger on the slide. This blocks the laser. My finger is barely long enough to touch the forward part of the trigger guard, which helps with this. Aside from that, I like the laser, though It's not as bright as I'd like. The spot is easily lost in normal light. It's my first laser, so I'm not sure if other (rail mounted) types are better.

Please forgive me for my tardy reply. I wanted to find the time to fully test employing the gun left handed short of going to the range. I'm a righty so support hand shooting awkward for me. With discipline, "you" could manage to keep "your" support hand thumb clear of the laser however, it leaves less of your thumb on the side frame so stability may be an issue. Also keep in mind that I'm a small guy so my hands follow accordingly, if you have big mitts I doubt this laser is for you. An important thing to consider is that at the range it's far easier to be more disciplined to manage your grip. However, when under a high stress situation your inner monkey will take over and I suspect your grip will defeat the laser unless you train feverishly. I would also add that I'm not a big fan of the rear actuated switch. For me the switch falls in a portion of my hand that requires a death grip to activate it. For this reason alone I would not recommend buying this unit however; your mileage may vary. Good luck with your decision.

There is a seperate pressure switch for each. I prefer hioking the light on pressure and leaving the laser on or off
