    Poor quality and poor warranty. Most get night sights for serious work and fiber optic for range guns. For NS Trigicon, Ameriglo and Dawson are three good choices.
    For FO TTI, Dawson and Warren are three good choices. There may be a quality set of NS/FO available but I am not aware of any. Most use the black rear with the FO front and some use the black rear with the NS front.
    Ameriglo Classic is a quality NS in your price range.

    ^ What he said.

    $100 puts a lot of really good sights in your price range. If you want FO, buy FO. If you want tritium, buy tritium. Don't believe the TruGlo hype that you need both.

    I agree. It is like a sofa sleeper. Yes, it does both but not either great. What is the gun being used for? I think any gun being used for self defense needs night sights.

    I installed TFOs on my Glock 21. While "worth it" may be relative, I liked them MUCH better than the stock notch/blade combat setup for low light conditions. With that written, I still prefer the Trijicon night sights that came factory installed on my Glock 19. In other words, I'm going to pick something other than TFOs for my G26 which is in need of some night sights.

    I got a good deal ($65 shipped) on the Meprolight green front with yellow rear night sights and I love them. I never really caught on to the fiber optic sights, I dunno seems more like something for competition shooting to me. I know I use them on my clay shotguns that is about it.

    Ameriglo is awesome because they use a metal body for their front sight post it is only difference between theirs and trijicon.

    Ameriglo Spartans or I dot pros are my go to.

    $67.50 and $82.50 respectively with free install.


    I have used and installed more of the Spartan sights than any other most installed before they were called Spartan and the price you quoted with installation is Very Good.

    That is a good price. Can you all install while I wait? Might have to take a trip to Hammond.
    Yes we can install while you wait. Glock sights are super quick.

    GL-383s are not a normally stocked item but would run $82.50

    We do stock GL-436($67.50) and GL-435 ($67.50)

    The people I am referring are LEO and need tritium front and rear on their Duty and BUG so the GL-435 and GL-436 will not work.

    I'll chime in too as I have the TFOs on my Glock. The new ones are considerably better than the old ones, although they aren't going to out-shine any dedicated fiber or tritium sight in their respective fields. Mine are decently bright in daylight and visible at night, which is all I really need. They don't have the nighttime sparkle of bare Tritium though, but enough to line up pretty easily.

    The new TFOs are also full metal and carry a 10 year warranty. As I recall the original TFO was made of plastic and carried no warranty.

    The tritium vials Ameriglo uses are made by Trijicon.
