Phoenix Max,
I don't actually own one, but there is a thread about them that surfaces from time to time. Most people liked them, but a few had problems with battery doors opening on each fire. I believe when they contacted Veridian, they remedied the situation though at no cost. I plan on ordering one, but just haven't quite got around to it yet. You should be able to find that thread with the search feature.
I don't think I'd really wanna CC it, but I guess you probably could if you really wanted to. ?? The laser mounts on the rail and can be removed and I will probably remount it every night for home defense, but I will definitely CC without it as it is kind of bulky.
I agree that the price is definitely tempting and they've got me as soon as I get around to it. haha
