J-Frames and CT Grips

I bought my 305s back when the 405 wasn’t around.

I have pocket carried my 642s for years without issue, works for me.

I prefer the 305s when shooting due to the size (I have bigger hands) but I’m going to get a set of the 405s and try them out as they will likely give me a cleaner grip on the gun at speed when it’s in the pocket.

I sighted mine in to be on top of the sights at the 25 yard line, this gives me the same off-set up close that everyone with CT grips has to deal with, but the ability to use the laser as far out as I will likely need it.

Same here, I bought the 305s because that was what was available at the time. My only problem is sometimes the longer grip gets hung up on the pocket of my uniform pants.

If I had it to do over again, I’d get the 405s or the new one from lasermax.

I prefer the 405’s, they feel great, work well for pocket carry and fit inside my mika pocket holster (which is very comfortable and easy to draw from btw). The 405s do not hang up or interfere with pocket carry in any way, I would go further and say that they should almost be a manditory upgrade for any CCW Jframe. I also like the master on and off as I practice mostly during the day and don’t want to burn the batteries unnecessarily.

RWK hit the nail with the ankle holster comment, my alessi ankle holster does not fit well w/ my 405 installed.

We’ve got LG205’s on older 342’s and some LG405’s on some newer 442’s–the 205’s are very small and easy to carry in pockets/ankle holsters, while the 405’s are more comfortable to shoot. The 105’s feel a bit small…

Mine are the LG-205 & are the smooth polymer/plastic
(which don’t grab the fabric of my pocket, the way the newer rubberized model did)

I use the LG105s on my 442. I think it makes a lot of sense on the 442/642 with the tiny notch sight. On a M&P 340 with that big dot not as important.

I have a 105 on my J and love it. I had the 305 before and while that was easy to shoot it hung up on everything. Hard polymer and short is the way to go. Maybe I would like the 405s too, haven’t tried.
