New release and sold out everywhere. Designed for slim-line.

I don't see any suppressor height sights on Ameriglo website. I was looking at Night Fision but people love and hate them. Any suggestions?

That will all depend on what optic you're running.

Likely EPS for 17 and EPS Carry for the 43x MOS

I didn't figure the adaptor plate until just now. I planned on getting the nubs filled down for a flush fit.

More than likely you won't need suppressor height sights on the 43X. I'd get the optic first. They sit really low.

I'd also file/machine the recoil lugs down so you can bypass the plate completely like you said.

Ameriglo has a ton of options for the 17. They even have an optic chart which will give you suggestions on what set of irons you should run depending on the gun/optic.

Can you link me to that chart? I was looking for it earlier and couldn't find it.

Am I blind or did they leave the EPS off for gen 4-5?

You're correct. I don't see the EPS at all. I normally run the GL-429 on my full size Glocks with optics. But I don't run the EPS and I like the irons to barely peak over the optic. I don't want them filling up the window.

For what it's worth I had a EPS (not the carry version) on a G17 and a 43X MOS for a period of time.

The 43X had C&H precision iron sights and their plate. They weren't tall at all. My 17 was cut for a RMR and I didn't like how high the EPS sat with the plate so I removed it before even getting iron sights.

Reddit is a place you can look for set ups that other people are running with photos for reference.

Yeah I use Reddit often. For now I am just gonna try and find sights for my 17 as I may not be putting an optic on it. Way too many to choose from but I know I want tritium.

I prefer blacked out irons. Good luck with your search though. Luckily they are easy to swap out if you decide to go with an optic.
