On my Glock 27, I always had a good set of factory night sights. I like night sights quite a bit but latelty, my sight preference has changed to a blacked out rear, like I have on my M&P (sharpie on stock sight).
I recently picked up a G19 Gen 4 and I don't mind the plastic sights for now, but as this becomes my new carry gun, i'd prefer to replace the plastic with something more robust. Anyone have the defoor sights and like them? Anything else, I should look at. Budget is ideally less than $100 but can go up to $150. |

I have Heinie slant pro straight 8 night sights. I just ordered a set of the Wilson\Vickers sights with FO front sight to try out on my new G17.
Sights are very subjective I do not really care for 3 dot sights I prefer a straight 8 two dot. |

This is my G33 Gen 4 with Novak low mount sights. Plain black rear with front tritium dot. Steel of course. All my recently acquired Glocks wear the same package as shown. Every Browning Hi-Power and 1911 that I own and carry have sported Novaks since the late 80's. You can do this with your G19 for under $150. Just send Novaks your slide and they'll do the rest.

We should build a thread with sight pictures of all the Glock sights showing the differences between them. I know I have wasted a lot of money buying different sights, holsters, belts, and misc stuff over the years to find out I do not like X Y or Z.

Edit to add: I use the same sights on my 42 and 43 as the full size pistols. You just need to check where the poa and poi is for you. That way all my sights are the same. |

There are so many popular sights right now and for some reason many of the manufacturers seem to not want to show you their actual sight picture pics on their websites. I'm also in the process of narrowing down what to upgrade my sights to in the near future (have always run 3 dot night sights). Really digging the bright orange fronts but that only narrows it down so much. Funny how that's made a comeback though, they seemed to be very popular on revolvers in the 70's and 80s, minus the tritium of course. |

What sucks is not being able to see these up close with your own eyes to see how it works for ya. I got lucky and a guy in a tac pistol class had a set that appealed to me and I played with his gun. I do not like any distraction on the rear of the gun, I wanna see front sight only, so that is why I use black rears and tritium with yellow/green up front. My eyes also like it. Some people like to have a bright visual in the rear also, and if that works for them so be it. I like to have space on both sides of front when viewing down slide, some people like to fill the notch up (wider front or narrower rear), everybody is different. I believe whenever possible to make the sights fit your preference, not the other way around, that also means you may piss off a lil bit of money swapping sights. No free lunch.

I can't recommend Trijicon to anyone. I put a set on my G19 earleir this week and the front sight was loose in the slide and had to be epoxied in place. I had already installed the rear sight, otherwise I would have sent them back.
