Question Anyone using Crimson Trace on an XD?
Anyone using Crimson Trace on an XD?

What do you like or hate about them?
Ease of installation?
Worth the money?
Better than night sights?
Primary or secondary sighting tool

Not a "love or hate", just realize their limitations. They are great for quick acquiring of your target, especially in a darkened environment; identifying, while dry-firing, any tendencies of trigger action; and, possibly, giving the BG an opportunity to reconsider his assault desires.

Do not plan on using them for target shooting or using them to aim a gun! Your front sight is superior!

What about night sights?
So would you spend the money on CT instead of night sights, night sights alone or both?

Completely off topic, but am I correct in assuming by your user name that you are a cigar connoisseur? Acid Cigars by Drew Estates (yum)

WOW! You are the first to put that together - and yes I do enjoy fine cigars. My favorite from Drew Estates is the Blondie....

Nice little smoke that usually doesn't offend the ladies...

How about you?

My favorite is the Acid Atom Maduro. I have a box sitting in the humidor at the moment The blondie is also a very good cigar, but I am a sucker for maduro wrappers. The Acid collection is one of my favorite cigar brands, too. The cheapest way to go if you enjoy them all is to buy the 14 count collectors tins. You get quite a few great cigars and they are just about half the price if you work out what you would pay for each singly.

In non-flavored cigars, I really enjoy anything from Rocky Patel. Very great tasting, well wrapped, well burning, and nicely aromatic cigars. I generally buy twice - four times a year and when I buy I buy quite a bit. My girlfriend thinks I'm crazy.

So back on topic....
What da ya think - add a CT with the stock sights or go with night sights and a CT...


But - ya can't go wrong with a fine XD, a fine cigar, a well aged bottle of Jameson, and depending on your point of view, a fine woman to top it off... (of course that may just mess up all of the prior fine things)

...
