    I put adjustable meprolights on my Glock 21SF and HK USP45 and love them.

      I recently installed Xssight big dot on my Glock and I am really impressed. Needs to get use to the sight line.
      I like my XS sights. Fast to pick up and accurate.

      I've never used them myself, but I've heard from others who have the XS Big Dots that they obscure too much of the target. One of them had need to unholster his weapon on someone and said he would not have been able to make a clean shot (there were two people involved). They are fast, but for a very specific purpose.
      Never had that problem with mine. I've hit 12" wide targets at 50 yards with my P220 with XS sights. It's a little big for target shooting, but I find it more than accurate enough. Last time I shot in CA, I was shooting the hands off zombie targets at Bullseye at 7 yards.

      In my experience? No less precise or accurate than any other sight designed for defensive use.

      I just like 'em because I can instantly pick up the proper sight alignment, I found them very intuitive the first time I tried them.

        Just had a set for my Glock 30 delivered, very curious to see how they work out. That's my weekend project.

          I had Trijicons on my G17 and they were pretty bright. Just for fun I switched them out for TruGlo TFOs, which at first worked great, but after a few months the tritium in the front sight is dramatically dimmer.

          I emailed TruGlo once, but they never responded, I should have listened to all the negative posts.

          However, the Fiber Optic part of the sights are still great in lit-dimly lit situations.

          Over all, I like the night sights that came with one of my Sigs, I believe they're made by Meprolight, its been a few years and they're still as bright as the Trijicons that were on the 17, which are just about 6 months old.

          YMMV
