>From a friend who is a gun retailer:

"A student just brought in his new G17. It stopped working, and he was unable to field strip it for investigation. He indicated that he had installed a laser device which replaces the entire recoil spring and guide rod. It dislodged. The slide would not move and could not be removed as a result."

Lesson: More aftermarket junk. Don't put this trash on any serious gun.
