First Look: LaserMax G42/43 Guide Rod Lasers

LaserMax announced that its newest generation of Guide Rod Laser technology will soon be available for Glock 42 and 43 subcompact handguns. The new LMS-G42 and LMS-G43 are the smallest guide rod lasers ever produced by the company.

Weighing in at only 0.6 ounces, the Glock 42 and 43 models neither add mass to the firearm nor interfere with holster

selection, important advantages for concealed carriers. The laser's red aiming point enables faster and more accurate shots on target, even when firing around obstacles or from unconventional defensive positions.

The new generation Guide Rod Lasers feature an automatic 10-minute timeout to prevent inadvertent battery drain and a user-programmable pulse/no-pulse selection.

The new G42 and G43 guide rod lasers began shipping to dealers in December 2015 and will sell at a suggested price of $299.
