Pros & Cons
Pros
Sights work well in low light. Especially in daylight. They glow bright in light and at night. Great for nighttime use.
Unparalleled 24/7 protection. Awesome sights. Worth every penny. These sights are fantastic.
Sight reduces the sight radius over the factory steel sights on a sub compact. This causes the long axis of the sight, which runs parallel to the barrel, to be slightly skewed. It now looks great, but was a hassle to install.
Great combo of fiber optic and tritium night sights. In bright light, the fiber optic is very bright, and the orange ring is very easy to find. The tritium glows pretty bright from the shooters perspective.
Cons
The mechanical plane of the dovetail mount is off-angled with the fiber and sight. I'm outside return window so my only option is trying to fabricate these to make them work. What was sent was for a glock.

I would only attempt to install these with a pusher

Using the hammer and punch was killing my punches and the sights wouldnt even budge

I tried to use calipers to measure the center but it was hard to get a good or consistent purchase when measuring so i didnt get the accuracy i was looking for
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Or having a reputable gunsmith install the sights may be the easier way to go just make sure they care enough to center the sights correctly

So after the install i just practiced some draw and and target acquisition

I was concerned about the tritiumfiber being too bright when in the dark but not the case at all
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Ill still have to try it in mixed lighting to see if the green dots are still easy to make out not sure
