Product Overview
The iProtec RM230-LSR is a versatile rail-mounted firearm accessory combining a powerful 230-lumen white light with a precise red laser sight. Engineered for durability, it features an anodized aircraft-grade aluminum construction, making it water and impact-resistant. Its adjustable hinge mount allows for quick, tool-free attachment to most standard rail-equipped pistols and long guns, though it is not suitable for subcompact models. The device offers multiple operational modes, including high light, low light, strobe, and laser, controlled by convenient ambidextrous switches. A laser adjustment Allen tool and one CR123A battery are included.
