The new Crimson Trace CMR-204 (green) light and laser combo.
I don’t know about you, but I’ve got a couple of “problem” guns in my safe at the moment.
Actually, the only “problem” is that they don’t lend themselves to integrated Lasergrip or trigger guard installations. My examples are the Beretta PX4 Storm and the FNS-40. Both are excellent guns and I really like them. The “problem” is putting integrated lasers and lights on them. Right now, I’ve got a Crimson Trace Rail Master light on the Beretta PX4 Storm and the FNS-40 sits naked and unlit.
Fortunately, Crimson Trace just announced a solution. While I’ve heard rumblings about the Crimson Trace CMR-204 and CMR-205 Rail Master Pros for a while, I had not yet seen a formal release. As part of the SHOT Show 2014 product announcement deluge, they’re here.
Both units are rail mounted units that contain both tactical light and laser. The difference between the CMR-204 and CMR-205 models are the color of laser light. The CMR-204 is green while the CMR-205 is red. Both models allow you to set the operating mode to laser and light, laser only, light only or strobe light and laser. Both units also feature a 100 lumen light – like the Crimson Trace Lightguard and operate for about 4 hours in a single CR2 battery.
An aluminum body provides strength and water resistance to one meter, so no worries about rain. Remember, if it ain’t raining’ you ain’t trainin’ right?
More to follow when I get my hands on one of these…

I love the light but getting a good holster to use with the light attached was a challenge. Here’s what I ended up with and I’m very happy with the results. http://youtu.be/LvvJOPKnoCc
That ‘s a neat idea of how the holster is shaped to kick on the activation switch. Simple, but very clever! Thanks for sharing the video.
Which laser is best suited for my Px4 Storm 9mm
The only real option you have is a universal fit rail-mounted laser with paddle activation. I’m not aware of any lasers made specifically for the PX4. Lasermax makes guide rod lasers for the 92 series, not not yet the PX4…
