Cali_Ed Posted November 11, 2014 Report Posted November 11, 2014 Hello all, Have been venturing on the internets, reading up on some sights, watching videos. I wanted to know what you forum experts would reccomend? So far warren carry sights heini straight 8s Ameriglo and possibly Trijicon hd I watched the very informative video of "Every question and answer on a gun forum: " and nothing was mentioned about pistol sights.. Had some good lols found that while doing a search here for sights
98Z5V Posted November 16, 2014 Report Posted November 16, 2014 Meprolight tritium sights, with the square-edge rear.
Robocop1051 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Posted November 16, 2014 I forget what they're called (too lazy and tired to look them up) but get the fiber optic and tritium combo sights. They glow 24/7, indoors and outdoors.
Cali_Ed Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Posted November 16, 2014 Ah the tfo sights by ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..... o yeah true glow?
Robocop1051 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Posted November 16, 2014 I'm not preferential to any one company. I have Mepro, Trijicon, SIG Pro, Kimber, TruGlo... I think I may have at least one of each. Funny thing... Most of my EDC choices don't have more than iron sights. At the distance I plan on shooting, I don't need special sights.
Robocop1051 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Posted November 16, 2014 Was thinking Trijicon rmr For EDC?!?!?!?!
98Z5V Posted November 16, 2014 Report Posted November 16, 2014 Don't Complicate $hit With Complicated $hit...
Cali_Ed Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Posted November 16, 2014 Lmao nah just a more settle joke?
98Z5V Posted November 16, 2014 Report Posted November 16, 2014 Eff the add-on optic on a daily carry gun, unless you're hunting terrorists and it's your backup house-clearing firearm. You don't need that $hit, until you progress to 3-Gun Master at the local competitions. Good set of tritium night sights will have you set. Because they work in daylight, and they work excellently at night. Make sure the rear sight has a square edge, and not that tapered $hit. Examples... Bad: Good!
Cali_Ed Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Posted November 16, 2014 (edited) Back to a serious note, I'm reading the tfos only have a 90 day warrenty. Do you guys believe a sight with a ledge is more advantageous then one with out? For one handed operation just in case you need to? Edit: Seems like you answered my question as I hit the post button brother 98 Edited November 16, 2014 by Cali_Ed
Robocop1051 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Posted November 16, 2014 I recant what I said about owning one of each... I do not own any ramped sights. The closest I have is my TRP Operator with adjustable sights (it's okay to drool Greg) and that still has plenty of edge to grip whatever I dig it into.
98Z5V Posted November 16, 2014 Report Posted November 16, 2014 Do you guys believe a sight with a ledge is more advantageous then one with out? Yes. Money is the same for both. Make sure you get something with a ledge, and it'll be more important later down the line, whether you need that capability/function now, or use it now.
Cali_Ed Posted February 11, 2015 Author Report Posted February 11, 2015 So I had gotten some hd night sights for my glock. I like them alot better then my stock glock sights. I know the purpose of these sights are self defense, are there any other sights with a thinner front? I'd like to see the target a bit better and would like to try some diffent sights on my mnp9c. Thoughts?
edgecrusher Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 I'd wait. M&P sights are pretty good.
Cali_Ed Posted February 11, 2015 Author Report Posted February 11, 2015 (edited) I intend to shoot with them first. But from what I remeber they are just white dots. I like how they are metal I think they do have a ledge on the already. Edited February 12, 2015 by Cali_Ed
AngelDeVille Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 My commander slide came with trijicon night sights, so that's what I use, when they burn out they won't be replaced. My Seecamp came without sights. So that's what I don't use on it.
AngelDeVille Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 and not that tapered $hit. No tapered $hit in my house!
Microgunner Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 Bullshiit and sweet apple butter. I've got a S&W M&P 9 CORE with a Trijicon RMR and suppressor irons that I use for everyday carry in rotation. Huge, bright 13 MOA amber dot that's super easy to get on target fast. Never needs batteries and the tall irons co-witness in case, for some bizarre reason, the dot doesn't work It's small and recessed into the slide and is much more unobtrusive than you might think. It's simple, easy to use and fast, fast, fast.

Cali_Ed Posted February 15, 2015 Author Report Posted February 15, 2015 Be use the don have a nice ledge to rack the slide of anything your imagination can think of?
Microgunner Posted February 15, 2015 Report Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) Why are the ones labeled as " Bad " ? Because you can't use the front edge of the rear sight to perform a one handed slide rack. Edited February 15, 2015 by Microgunner
