    I like TTI, Warren and Trijicon FO front and blacked out rear. The U and square notch rear sights work equally as well for me. I like 10-8 rear sights but don't like their front FO sight as the rod is too low from the top of the sight and shooting at speed I tend to align the top of the rod with the top of the rear sight.

    Also important to me is a .115 width front with a small rear notch like .140 or so. Fast and accurate.

      Maybe off topic, but RDS. I was skeptical, but my first range trip with an RMR was an improvement to say the least. My time to get on target and make accurate hits at any distance improved dramatically.

      Obviously the cost of the optic and slide milling is going to be almost as much as the gun, but if you don't have an RDS yet, it's well worth it. A Holosun 407C isn't too much though if you wanted to keep the cost down to try out. As I said, I was skeptical of dots on handguns, but I won't be buying another handgun for serious use without an RDS.

      If only irons though, Trijicon fiber or Ameriglo fiber front, black rear. Anything with the fiber front and black rear is great.

          The RMR is the primary. The 507C auto adjust isn't as good. Though apparently the Holosun SCS auto adjust is very good. Once I escape CA in the next few months, a Gen 5 MOS with the SCS is near the top of the list.

          Sage Dynamics, Suarez International to name a couple who consider the Holosun to be equal or even superior in some ways. I think Trijicon has some catching up to do in the innovation department. Even though they are again arguably the most durable for hard use. The Acro P2 is up there for durability also.

          Closed emitters certainly have a lot of pros for duty guns, open carry, etc. I think open emitters are still perfectly fine for most though. I'm basically never open carrying. Even if I was out in the woods I'd use a chest rig or fanny pack type setup, so exposure to the elements would be much less of a factor.

          Regardless, I think we've reached the point where pistol mounted RDS are reliable and durable enough to be considered for nearly all defensive firearms.

          Apologies if this is derailing the thread.

            OP, my blue label glock 34 came with standard drift adjustable only g17 plastic sights instead of the regular adjustable g34 rear plastic sight. Extended slide stop, and extended mag release were same as on regular g34.
            They were replaced immediately with dawson fo red front and all black adjustable rear. This was probably 15 years ago though.
