Laserlyte sight for LC9

Just ordered up a Laserlyte ck-amf9 sight for my LC9. I liked the side mount over the front mount systems, plus the price was better. Anyone have any experiences/comments/suggestions for this rig?

I'd also like to hear some reviews for this laser on the LC9.

Thumbs up Laserlyte installed

I received the Laserlyte sight and installed it easily. YouTube video shows how. 20 min from opening the package to finishing the rough sight in. It looks nice but extends the width a full 3/8 of an inch. I'll try to attach a photo if I can figure out how. Anyway, it fits the standard Nemesis holster I bought soon after without a hitch. The laser works well and fine calibration was a cinch using the gun rest rig at my club. I still can't get groups but I blame that on me (my first DAO gun, never shot much DA before) and the looooooong trigger and not the laser.

So far, I can recommend this rig for price & ease of installation. I'm probably not the right candidate to comment on durability. I don't really carry much and will probably only put and 20 rounds a month through it.

Just a little hint for those with Laserlyte units.

I bought a V2 model awhile ago. I lost the tiny little allen wrench (.035") used to adust the laser. Went to their website and saw they had replacements for $2.50. I thought that was high, but I was the one who screwed up and lost the original....I'm sure it's still here somewhere.

I placed an order for two ($5) but was very shocked when the total with shipping was $17.95. $12.95 shipping/ handling (UPS ground) for something that can easily ship for the new postal rate of 45 cents. I cancelled the order. Was gonna call them today and see if that really was what they would charge me.

Never called them cuz I went online and found that Fastenal stores can get them for about $.10 each. Will pick up 5 tomorrow morning locally when running errands.

I like the V2. Don't care for a $12.95 shipping charge.

I own a couple of Laserlyte products, one is the RSL for the 10/22...it worked great out of the box, but wouldn't adjust properly after awhile...so I called them up, they sent me a new one out sight unseen, and asked that I return my faulty one...it was quick and painless...so at least it's a decent company despite that ridiculous shipping charge mentioned...not to mention finding electronics made in the USA is pretty tough these days...I will do business with them again...

I'm seriously contemplating one myself, not a fan of the trigger guard units

My Crossbreed works with my LaserMax. Congrats on the laser, they are always a fun addition.

FYI you can get the LaserMax on Amazon for $80
