Help w/ sight ID

[MrFeetZ]

Hello all. Im hoping to get some help in identifying the night sights that are on my firearm. Handgun is a HL P30L that I got about 5 years ago. Im wondering if anyone can confirm if the stock nights sites are a superluminova or photoluminescent type? If so, can anyone recommend a mfg? Sights will be for a HK USP.

grab your reading glasses- Are there any marking on the sights?

from H&K it sounds like their own sights

Extensively tested, the P30 has already been adopted by several European police agencies. Excellent weight and balance make the P30 naturally pointable, easy to control, and accurate to shoot. An open notch rear sight with luminous (non-radioactive) contrast points allows for fast and accurate target acquisition, even under poor lighting conditions.

Looks like photoluminescent types to me... I like Ameriglos for my USP.

I have those on my VP9. Photoluminescent.

Hk factory sight options for P30 are here:

It looks like the Superluminova are only installed in adjustable type sights, perhaps the inserts are much longer and will only fit there. The standard fixed sights are just normal phosphorescent

No markings at all. But the link provided by Skyhawk below, I was able to confirm they are photo-luminous.

Unfortunately, it looks like Ameriglo discontinued making for USP.

Ive looked at mepro, ameriglo, truglo and LPA and doesnt look like anyone make photo luminescent for USP. If Im wrong, please let me know. Looks like ive narrowed it down to Dawson or XS Sight. Im not sure about XS, I've never used them before.

So Much Lol...

Thanks. Reading this was best laugh all week.

I appreciate the input. I don't want to be the only guy showing up to a costume party wearing a costume.

Get a fiber optic front with a plain black rear and you'll wonder why you were fcking with 3 dot designs for so long.

PS XS Big Dots are the short yellow bus of sights.

Those and the ones in the Brownells link are tritium. Night sights are tritium.

I have Trijicon HD on my USP45, tritium with a big ole dayglo front dot
