Just installed the a set of the latest Crimson Trace laser boot grips, LG-405, on my wife's Smith & Wesson, nickel, (1972) Model 36 Chief's Special in .38.
Her eyesight is such that it's difficult for her to sight on the snub's blade unless she's wearing her contacts or computer glasses. She might have to defend herself anytime, so glasses or contacts might not be in the picture.
As a training tool and self defense piece, we're going to try these at the range next trip.
(notice the anti-recoil pocket on the strap)
Anyone wanna take a shot at the vintage ammo trivia?

Winchester silver tips. I used to carry these pretty rounds and still have some.

We need to work out a laser grip that has a mode for using it as a targeting device as above and also a high power mode that would vaporize (or at least burn a hole in) the attacker. I'm pretty sure it could be done. Think of it as 5+1

Nope, they're the discontinued 95 grain Silver Tips. I only have about a dozen or so left in the original box.

You didn't say it was discontinued! You only said vintage!
