Pistol Night Sights - What Options?
Posted: Thu, 05 Mar 2015 00:50:40
Couple of questions...
I have gotten really spoiled with my SIG P226. It has some awesome tritium night sights. I bought this new Glock and I would love to carry it, but it doesn't have night sights. I don't want to get caught in a low-light self defense situation and not be able to properly acquire a target.
I have been looking for some aftermarket sights and I see 3 brands that really jump out. There is Trijicon, TruGlo and AmeriGlo.
Trijicon is a known quantity a $125. Even though I have never had a set, I would assume, like everything else that comes from Trijicon, they will be top notch.
TruGlo is in every sporting good store I have ever been in. I would think that they can't be complete crap or that would not be the case.
AmeriGlo is completely new to me. I have never heard of them before. At least not to the point that I recognize the name... but the crazy part is, the classic tritium sights look exactly like the night sights on my SIG P226. I am kind of partial to them
Has anyone who has has a SIG pistol with night sights ever had a set of AmeriGlo sights? Any good? Does anyone know if the Ameroglo's are the brand SIG uses or is SIG making their own?
Anyone use the TruGlo or Trijicon tritium sights? Any opinions?
