Innovative Arms Ruger LCP Sight Upgrade
Received the wife's and mine slides back from Innovative Arms today. We had them do the sight upgrade and also have the slides refinished in brushed stainless.
Makes a huge visual difference. Also installed the Lasermax laser on the wife's LCP and the Crimson Trace laser onto mine.
Other upgrades on both are the Impact +1 grip extensions with extended mag springs, Wolf 12lb recoil springs, and polished BTguiderods.
Will be taking them to the range Thursday Evening to give then a good workout.

Re: Innovative Arms Ruger LCP Sight Upgrade
Those are completely badass. You both have great taste in modifications.

Re: Innovative Arms Ruger LCP Sight Upgrade
Don't see any prices on their site ? Mind if I ask how much they charged for the site upgrade and refinish?

Re: Innovative Arms Ruger LCP Sight Upgrade
Do you like one laser over the other? I'm thinking one of them would look good in my pocket. Probably not the pink one

Re: Innovative Arms Ruger LCP Sight Upgrade
Real men can carry pink - ok, guess I'm not a real man I was also wondering if the hogue grip on the black one interferes with the crimson on/off? Hard to tell from pic, did you have to cut out around it? For add on lasers, crimson is the only one I'd consider. Tx for posting the price too. At first I thought it was high ( I get entire steel guns re-done for $155, slides only for $70 ) but then I figured with the sites too, probably sounds ok. Really considering it !

Re: Innovative Arms Ruger LCP Sight Upgrade
I prefer the crimson trace laser and the wife choose the lasermax laser.
Side by side the crimson trace laser is brighter at longer distances then the lasermax.
The lasermax needed no modification to the Hogue grip. One of the reasons my wife choose that one.
For the crimson trace I just had to cut a small hole in the front of the grip for the activation button. I used a .223 shell and it was about the perfect size needed. Hogue does sell a crimson trace specific grip but I did not feel like buying a second grip.

Re: Innovative Arms Ruger LCP Sight Upgrade
You managed to make a good gun better in my opinion....the stocks sights on that weapon are sorely lacking. $150 is decent and it looks like you now have a good semi-range target gun now.
I'm debating it, just can't imagine how helpful the sights would be for me as that particular gun will simply be a point 'n shoot in emergency situations, at least that's how I think a self defense scenario would carry out for me.
