Hogue’s LE Grips are the first handgun laser sighting system on the market based on a fully programmable, digitally-controlled microprocessor circuit.
Hogue’s designers capitalized on the advantage by programming three operating modes (steady, flashing or stealth target) and four laser brightness levels into the LE Grip’s circuit. They also tapped into sophisticated power management routines to ensure long life from two common CR-2032 batteries hidden under the grip on the non-laser side – an important design feature enabling battery changes that won’t take the laser out of zero.
Each LE Grip is bore-sighted at the factory while fine windage and elevation adjustments are accessible via small set screws. All of the Hogue LE Grip’s programming features are accessible via pressure-sensitive programming buttons.
The Hogue LE Grips for Smith & Wesson revolvers have been embedded with a 630-670nm<5mw Class 3R red laser diode, circuitry and batteries into two custom-designed grip frames that sit underneath a classic Hogue one piece Rubber Grip.
