Dawson Fiber Optic Sights on Hard Kickin Glocks

[leroy]

Dear folks...( have recently come into possession of a Glock 20 (...thanks Matt...)... I am thinkin about putting a set of Dawson Fiber Optic sights on it; but im kinda concerned about the fiber optics strands stayin put in the sights under recoil... Have any of you all experienced the loosening of the fiber optic insert  in these sights...? Are there any other fiber optic sights you all like better than the Dawsons...?

 

Thanks in advance...

The fiber optic strands are such low weight I cannot imagine the recoil being a problem.

I've got FOs on all my Glocks, though they are just lowly 9mm, I can't see you having a problem. They do break and come out from time to time, none of mine have after thousands of rounds, but hear it does happen. They are easy enough to replace, just buy some spares and carry on.

Edit to add: I use 10-8 sights and like them very much.

You can get spare fiber optic rods from Dawson. If a rod in a front sight does break, replacing it is a three-minute job requiring only a pair of fingernail clippers and a cigarette lighter.

I have the Dawson FO on a M&P pro 9mm which I shoot often. No problems. In fact, I think it is a much brighter FO than a couple of other brands I have.

Get the Dawson sights.  I have put them on all my Glocks, M&P's, and 1911's.  No problems at all.

I've had Dawsons on several guns and use them on my G34 now. Never had an issue. Warren Tactical has great FO sights too.
