Glock17 sights?

[Paletiger13]

I'm looking to change my sights on the Glock 17. Any recommendations or suggestions?

[Guest odfanatic]

I'm a fan of plain Jane meprolights or Trijicons. I have Trijicon standards on my Glock 26 and Meprolights on my Glock 23. I think the Meprolights come standard when night sights are ordered from Glock, but I could be wrong. I have a Glock 17 with Truglo Tru Fiberoptics on it and I regret buying those. I intend to it put Trijicon standards on the 17 when I have enough free dough.

trijicon is what i have used. they hold up well. many mango season ago i used some night sights from glock. they worked well also.

I like the Truglo TFO green front and rear. To me they show as well or better than any others at night, but in the day they show up much better.

I'll toss out a different option. I am a huge fan of XS big dot sights, I have a set on both a G26 and a G17. Excellent sights.

Is there anywhere here locally to pick some up?

Another vote for BigDots. Just put a set on my 19

Sorry. Nashville area

XS Big Dots. The glue wasn't even dry on the Heinie Straight Eights before I discovered the Big Dots, but I swapped them all for Big Dots as soon as the dealer could get them in stock.

[Paletiger13]

Got a direct link for Big Dots?

[Paletiger13]

TruGlo TFO's.

I have a set of 24/7 Big Dots I put on my Glock 17 a short while ago. It took all of 15 minutes, and I'm no mechanical genius in any way, shape, form, or fashion.

I have less than 600 round behind them, but shot an IDPA Match last weekend with the Big Dot 17 and was quite pleased. They'll be going on my 19 & 26 in the future.

Good Luck.

I'm hoping to get a call shortly from the gunsmith telling me my XS Big Dots are installed on my Kimber CDPII. So I can try them out on my monthly IDPA match this Saturday. I'd hate to order a set for my Glock 26 right now and find out they're not for me.

I've been waiting and waiting for my big dots to come in for my pps.

Excellent Dennis. I hope you'll let us know what you think of them.

While I readily admit they aren't for everyone, I think it's more a matter of a "sight-use-paradigm shift" than their purported inherent inaccuracy.

A buddy on mine put a set on his Glock 19 a bit after I put my set on my 17. He & I have both shot a couple of IDPA matches with them, as well shooting some 6" steel at 20 yards...no great feat...but not hard to get decent hits at a bit of distance. And at close range...bad breath to 10 yards?... Just put the big old dot where you want the round to go and press.

I'm not 100% sold on them as the greatest thing since sliced bread, and plan to shoot some USPSA matches with them, as well as continue to do some practice and training with 'em.

But so far I'm like them.

I'm looking forward to your impressions of them.
