Title: Opinions for replacement sights on carry gun
Post by: OnTheFly on June 02, 2014, 09:30:32 AM

My new carry gun has plastic sights, and I'm looking at replacing them before they get broken off.  On my competition gun I have a fiber optic front sight with an all black rear notched sight.  I've had "night" sights before, and personally don't see any use for them. 

Any opinions on better styles and/or what is a good replacement brand?  Any brand that fits a Glock 19 would fit my new gun.

Thanks,
Fly

Have you tried racking the slide with them? Maybe they'll hold up... :D

I have night sights on my night stand pistol, but I can focus on a regular sight in daylight better than the night sights.  That's just me, and I'm pretty sure you're more knowledgeable about all of this than I, but here's something to get a discussion started.

Not until I get a replacement set!   :laugh:

Thanks for the input.

if you hold the pistol sideways then you don't even need sights, just instant kill shot

True that!
