Crimson Trace LG499G Laserguard 5mW Green Laser (532nm) - Black Finish for HK VP9, VP40, VP9SK
Crimson Trace
The Crimson Trace LG-499 Laserguard is a red laser sight engineered around one core idea: activate it the way you naturally hold your pistol. This 5mW laser mounts to the trigger guard of your HK VP9, VP40, or VP9SK without any permanent modifications—no gunsmithing, no alterations. Grip the gun normally, and the pressure-activated pad fires up the laser instantly. That intuitive activation, combined with the compact form factor, makes it a practical choice for shooters who want a laser backup sight or training tool without the complexity of rail-mounted alternatives.
At 50 feet, the .50" red dot gives you a quick visual reference for point-of-aim, whether you're running drills at the range, setting up for home defense, or learning proper sight picture. The 633nM wavelength is classic red-laser territory—bright in low light, visible enough in daylight at close range. Two hours of runtime per 1/3N battery keeps you in the fight without constant battery changes. Windage and elevation adjustments let you dial it to your zero, and the black anodized finish matches the professional look of the HK platform.
This isn't a replacement for your iron sights or optic; think of it as a training tool, a low-light aid, or a confidence booster. The trigger-guard mount philosophy appeals to shooters who want something fast to deploy, easy to install, and just as easy to remove when you don't need it. Simple, reliable, no electronics tucked into your pistol—that's the Laserguard approach.

Yes. The trigger-guard mount is designed for user installation and removal without any modifications to the firearm or special tools required.
The laser is rated for a 50-foot effective range, with a .50" dot size at that distance. This makes it suitable for close-range training, home-defense setups, and low-light scenarios rather than long-distance shooting.
