Anyone here have them and any experience with them?
I have never used plain black rear sight before...

[Sebass]

Have them on my M&P 9c (carry gun). I opted for the luminescent lime outer instead of the orange, makes it easy to pick up the front sight. Love mine

[BoJackUSMC]

Thinking about getting the orange version.. thought it will stand out more than lime or green color ones..

I have hacks on a G17. They are one of the many real good option's in handgun sights we have today. The wide rear notch make them a much better fighting sight then a bullseye sight. I have a mixer of solid black rear and tritium two dot rear sights and am not one that says only one type or the other is the only way to go. Although they will be here shortly.
The rear on the Hacks are also fairly low profile, so they are good for a deep cover gun also and of course the large orange or green front post is quick to pick up.

Thank you.. it wont be for bulls eye gun.. it will be for my G43 carry gun.

It would be a good choice for the 43, I have become a big fan of the U rear notch and ended up putting the HD's on my 43. The rear on them is a little high for a sometimes pocket gun, but they work good for me on the 43.
Another good choice for the 43 is the Spartan Tactical, they are very low profile and similair to the hacks. Just have the two tritium lamps on the rear sight.

Hacks are nice sights for a non bullseye gun. I love all black rear personally.

In fact currently I like all black front and rear but as I get older I'm going to swap to a fiber or tritium front (eventually)

The Hacks are very fast for SD style shooting.

While I only have only glock with them, the Wilson LAV sights are very eye grabbing. I have a fiber front and all black rear, really like it.

The Wilson Combat Battle sights are great, I have them on a Wilson 1911, Glock 35 and Glock 23. I also like the different choices they offer, plan Black or tritium rear, tritium front, FO, Gold bead or just black.
They are a little too tall for a 43 or other sub-compact but on a full size or compact gun, they are my #1 handgun sight.

For ccw does the wilson sight ride too high?

Just curious as I have never tried. Most of my glocks are defoors

I was surprised at how wye grabbing the wilsons are

I have a set of hacks, nice sights. I prefer the hack front with 10-8 rear sight in black.

I don't think so, I carry a G23 with them at 3:00 in an IWB holster.
Here's my 23 next to my gen3 23 that has Trijicon HD's for a size comparison.



Good choice OP, I'm sure you'll like them on your 43.

Had the hackathorn sights for 4 years on my 17 and I swapped them out for proctor y notch to maximize accuracy once I got a Wilson barrel. In hindsight I would of probably swapped them for a 10-8 fiber set instead, as I shoot best with that setup. The hackathorn set served me well and I'd recommend it to others.
