How's the duribility of this laser? I'm looking at this for my wife's 92a1. I've seen reviews indicating the switch is frail and prone to breaking.

So far I have been really pleased. I have shot around 200 or more rounds with the laser and had no problems.

no problem with the switch... went through roughly 300 rounds of rapid fire, and 500 rounds of normal fire (1 sec in between).note the laser is red, and it's blinking, and not a constant stream.

I have had no issue with it at all. I have it on a 9mm AR pistol build I did. I keep it in what I call a "loose zero" Meaning it does not need to be dead on where the bullet hits, just within 2 inches or less. It does this with no problem. I put it on the gun and really never touched it. The laser is just about 1 1/2" left of where bullet impact occurs and that is at 10 to 15 yards. It has never shifted. Around 2000 rounds with this laser on the gun so far.

I don't think this is going to break it is pretty solid. I have one and it is a good toy BUT stay out of the line of fire, it is serious for a nerf gun!

I purchased this item for an AR 15 a few months ago, the item looked and felt very durable. The light still works I believe. I haven't put very many rounds through it but the laser didn't make it through a full 30 round clip. I didn't put a review up or anything. Guess I should have. I just chalked it up to another one of those "gotcha" purchases. Good luck.

Used one in my Z, has been pretty good for a few years, although finally dying - the locks, to the actuator's credit, are really stiff though. I used the other one to remote-fire a paintball gun behind my front grille, and it's held up even better :) I'd buy 'em again.

It works with my Laser Devices DBAL-D2 but the plug does not really have a positive engagement....Not sure why, but it is pretty easy to pull out. That said, I'm very happy with this switch.

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.

Hey Joe, I've run this light on AR's, shotguns and my primary duty pistol. I have found this style of weapon light to be awesome in all applications. It's small, takes up little rail space, can use a preasure switch, bright and takes a beating. If you are not interested in spending the money on a high dollar rifle light, I would highly recommend the TLR-1s.

I wouldn't buy this thing. We bought one and it only lasted a month or so before the laser stopped working. Cheap plastic.

Kindof. Its not perfect. Personally I have had a bad experience with one(it fried and wouldn't turn on) but everyone I know that has them absolutely loves them so I give it a 4 star. Remember its cheap. Its no eotech for sure but its worth the money. Its worth it for 22s but risky for high power weapons.

I also just purchased a UTG LED Green Laser Combo and the laser does not hold a good zero. So far I have been able to determine that the mount does not hold the laser firm enough to hold the zero. I do not want to over tighten the screws and strip them. No solution yet. I just think the mount should be made more sturdy. I also noted that the green dot grows larger, especially after 25 Yards.

Yes its good. But its not a eotech or a aim point. I don't know how long it will stay on target I prefer a laser on a ar pistol.

Mine has held up pretty well. It is pretty easy to zero, and functions as advertised. I have mine on a spring pellet rifle, and nothing has gone wrong on the inside of the scope, (a not uncommon problem). Like many reviews say, the reticle is kind of fat, but not a big deal. If you are not using it in a tactical or competition environment, I highly recommend it.

I have had mine for awhile but I believe they did. Even if they don't, it is still worth buying this laser.....excellent product.

No idea how it would hold up, but it has a warranty. So you could order one and try it out and maybe tell others how they hold up. If it doesn't work out, you can return it. For the money, I don't know of another sight that is this good. It's worth a try ! Remember, do not leave the battery in the sight if you will not be using it for a while. Leaking batteries screw up a lot of good electronics. This also uses a large, common button battery and it comes with two ( A spare ). Good luck and post a review !

It's much more tricky on my Glock than my beretta. I don't like the fact that the laser stays on once the slide has been cycled. I question whether or not I have it installed correctly. You might want to research that on LaserMax's website. But I must say. It is super simple on a Beretta 92f

Len, It depends on what you consider shock proof. The light and laser are durable enough. It is the mounting clamp that is weak. The retaining springs on the clamp are extremely light. I am using it on a 12ga, and am working on upgrading the springs to keep it on the gun while shoot slugs.
