Response I got was they are not looking at nor plan to do anything with a guide rod internal laser. Something to do with the release pin, and the on/off only being on the left side. After speaking with a friend though...he brought up a great point. He has one of the under trac designs...and he said he is always having to clean the lens because powder dust gets on it. So with that being said, I am more apt to go with the grip as well, and maybe have a different grip handle insert made, along with the front grip if I find it to be too bulky.
