Marion County Sheriff’s Department Outfits 300 Deputies with Lasergrips

Beaverton, OR — October 2, 2006: Crimson Trace Corporation announces that Marion County Sheriff’s Office has purchased Lasergrips for all 300 sworn deputies within their department to mount on their SiG P-220 service pistols. The purchase comes after much testing and evaluation of the various types of laser-sighting devices on the market.
“We simply wanted the best equipment for our deputies in the field,” stated Major John Bullwinkle, “Lasergrips have proven themselves on the street and as a training tool in the classroom.”
Lasergrips have been shown to increase hit ratios in officer involved shootings to up to 95%. Contrast that to the national average of 20% hits in officer involved shootings, it becomes clear why agencies are selecting Lasergrips as essential equipment.
