Best night sights I have ever tried?

PlayboyPenguin · Jan 3, 2015

I just installed my new Ameriglo Pro I-DOT night sights on my new Glock build. That front sight lights up like the sun. I have never had a front sight that was so easy to acquire. Anyone else tried these? These might be my favorite night sights I have tried.

I'd like to know how clean it stays after those ports let loose

Looks grate, what's the cost on that sight though?

I think they were around $75 on Amazon.

Cool looking sights. Do you have a build thread for the Glock?

No, but you can see videos of the build on my YouTube channel. This is the first one.

Weepy eye and a c section scar.

Love it.

Anyone know which size is best for the front sight?
Ameriglo had two sizes I think te smaller size is stock on glock is the smaller size .165?
Is that for all glocks?

I run the Ameriglo ProGlo front sights with plain black Pro rear sights. The fronts are green tritium with a green ring, .165 tall and .140 wide. I like the wide .180 notch for the rear sight.

That's what I was looking to do also.
Just get the front sight and use the stock rear.

I absolutely love my Ameriglos. Only NS I run on my pistols other than a pair of warnes on my ole competition Glock. They might be swapped for something like this though. As I wear a tinfoil hat most of the time, I prefer all my guns to have tritium.

The factory rear will work but for $20 you can get a much nicer rear sight. Having a wider notch and slightly longer sight radius is worth the little extra. Not to mention that you get a metal sight without the silly white outline.

Well it's adjustable, but your right.
I was just looking at opticsplanet.com for the set and it's only $64 for front and rear! That's much cheaper than I thought it would be.
Might get them for all my glocks!

I'd love to see a comparison between these sights and the Tru Glow TFO sights, your previous favorite sights.

Waiting for the next "pig with lipstick video".

clearconscience · Jan 22, 2015

Well thanks a lot PB. After seeing how pretty those sights are I decided to buy some for myself.
Which rear sight did you use?

Looks like the Trijicon's that came new on my EXO 23.
They have a single rear center night dot. In the dark you just put the front dot over the rear.
I prefer this to centering the front dot between two in the rear sight.

And in the light. That front sight really jumps out at you.
