Night sight help

[energizzzer]

My EDC is a glock 23. I want to install night sights, but haven't found the right ones yet. In fact, I have a BNIB set of XS Big Dots and set of used TrueGlow fiber optic / night sights that I will be selling soon.

Don't laugh, but I'm a big fan of the glock stock sights (non-night). The typical 3-dot configuration just isn't for me. I've researched Novak, Meprolight, Glock, Ameriglo, Trijicon, XS, TruGlow and Warren Tactical. Nobody seems to make night sight in a 'box' / dot combo like the stock glock sights. Anybody familiar with anything close?

Are you wanting both front and rear tritiums or just front?

Personally I like tritium on the front and non illuminated on the rear. You should be focusing on the fronts anyways at SD ranges.

Laserlyte is the only other mfg besides Glock I know of that uses the "U-shaped" bracket on the rear sight.

If it helps, I have a set of Glock adjustable rear sights. BTW...I sent you a PM.

Tritium front and rear if possible. I'm currently running glock stock (non-night) rear and TruGlo Tritium / Fiber Optic green now.

I think the Glock sights are okay but I've never been a big fan of the "u"shape...I'm been thinking of switching to the Meprolight night sights where the front sights are green and the rear sights are orange...I saw a pair on a G31 while taking some training down in Atlanta and, with the two colors, it seemed that getting a proper sight picture was easier/quicker.

I have the green front and orange rear Mepro's on my G30, and I really like them. I don't like the stock Glock sights, and have tried several other options.

I run Warren Tactical dot-over-dot on all of my M&Ps and my Glock 19. They have become my sight of choice over the past few years of really running handguns hard.

I've been looking for night sights for my M&Ps. What is it you like about these over the others?

I think I found what you are looking for. LPA makes a dovetail adjustable rear sight to fit Glocks and others. When ordering you specify "Code 18" for white U-line sights. The item # is TPU32GL and here's the link: http://www.lpasights.com/catalog.html

Hope that helps...good luck

They just work very well for me. The rear sight has a nice hook design that allows one-handed "wounded shooter" manipulation of the slide and the rear sight's shape is conducive to extremely fast sight-picture acquisition and streamlined enough that it provides good peripheral view around the sight blade. Nice wide sight channel as well. Just a really good, versatile, combat sight design.

IMO adjustable sights belong on target pistols and not fighting pistols. Fighting pistols need to be cement block simple with nothing to go out of alignment from being bounced around and carried.
