Oh boy - I don’t see how you can go wrong with this. I am very happy with mine!

Easy installation, easy adjustment using a red barrel laser along with this trigger guard green laser. Set barrel zero @ 20 yards by intersecting this green laser onto the red barrel laser. Went to indoor range, sighting in was a snap due to green laser being almost on the bullet hole in the target! Nice aiming device and deterrent! Twice in my lifetime I have had to pull my sidearm, never had to pull the trigger due to using the laser in the eyes of aggressor, they retreated.

Do not purchase. I went through 2 and both had to be returned. They did not operate after proper installation. My third purchase was a LaserMax which worked perfectly after installation.

I installed this on my G43 and it fits with no problem and the laser is way brighter than I thought it would be one of the best purchases I've made

Have used Crinsom Trace for years but thought I would try Viridian’s on my new M&P Shield based on price point and instant on feature. Not disappointed. Easy to install, bright, and probably won’t need much adjustment. Be careful not to strip screw heads when installing.Follow up. Am returning this laser. The batteries are difficult to change. The three small screws that must be removed are easily stripped if you are not VERY careful. The magnetic switch does not always switch off, or stay switched off when re-holstering, so the batteries don't last very long. Less than a day in one case. Sorry to return, but not practical for me.

The gen 2 glock 43 model DOES fit the new glock 48. I just put it on mine. I zeroed with a bore laser and have not taken it to the range yet, so I can't confirm it holds zero yet. However, this is my third viridian and the first two held zero just fine.It included a soft leather iwb holster with a single polymer j hook clip. The holster is open at the muzzle, so it actually fits the glock 48 as well. However, the magnet inside it does not get close enough to the laser to make the auto shutoff work. This makes the holster basically useless. Nice try, poor execution. I have already ordered a crossbreed freedom carry for the G48/Reactor 5 combo.For $110 it is 5/5. If it were at the same price level as the crimson trace, I would take the crimson trace.

I ordered a Gen2 for Kahr PM9. What arrived was a package for a PM45. It was dated 2013... how is that a Gen2? I didn't notice this at first and put it on my CM9. The PM45 kit did actually fit the PM9 but cants the laser body a bit downward... enough that if you try to adjust the laser calibration upwards to compensate, the aperture in the body of the laser occludes the beam. The holster wouldn't turn off the laser, likely due to it being for a 45 rather than a 9. The magnet is in the wrong place.Here's where it gets interesting. When I tried to return it Amazon wouldn't permit that, and gave the reason that its not eligible for return because it contains chemicals that cant be shipped. I hit up Amazon chat, and they refunded my money and told me to discard it, they didn't want it back. I took it apart, drilled a wider hole for the laser to peek out of on the laser body, put in on, dialed it an and kaboom. Free laser. Maybe I can move the magnet on the holster, or buy another one.As for the laser itself, its bright... not as bright as the green on my rifle, but I'm satisfied. The button to turn it on and off manually truly sucks. A terrible design! They recessed it too far into the body of the laser. It should be 1mm higher. I can turn it on and off, but not reliably. Sometimes it takes a second push.I don't see the plastic hardware on the holster lasting very long at all, but that's just an opinion.For free, count me in. For the 145 I would have paid..... idk. Seems overpriced.

Deducted one star for quirky, poor ECR design.Very bright green laser, easy to install and adjust, accurate. BUT... the ECR Instant-On feature takes some "getting used-to". Don't expect to be able to turn the laser on/off in a defensive situation, as the on/off button is recessed and is NOT the typical push button you find on other laser sights. Turning the laser on takes some doing, and is not something you can do quickly. For ECR Instant-On to work, you MUST use the holster that comes with the G5 ECR Laser, or another holster that supports the ECR Instant-On feature. For Every-Day-Carry (EDC), that means the laser must remain turned on all the time, and shuts off automatically when re-holstered. The ECR Instant-On holster supplied by Viridian works as advertised to turn the laser on and off when unholstered/reholstered, but is pretty much useless as an IWB holster.The plastic belt clip appears to be attached as an afterthought, and allows the gun to rotate freely to a butt-down position inside your pants once attached to your belt. This is totally unacceptable for EDC use, and I can't imagine how this design passed final product review at Viridian. If the plastic belt clip is removed, it works OK as a pocket holster, but that's about it.There are third party suppliers of holsters that fit the LPC2 and support the Viridian ECR Instant-On feature, but they're expensive and take some research to find. I removed the plastic belt clip from the my Viridian ECR holster, and am using it as a pocket holster until I find, or build, a suitable IWB holster that supports ECR Instant-On.
