    VP9 or VP9 LE?

    Will be ordering one tommrow but is it worth getting the LE for 100$ more? 1 extra mag and tru-glo sights from my understanding. I was leaning towards the LE but maybe you guys can sway me in my choosing.

      Depends on if you like those sights. It turns out that I don't so I'm going to replace them -- so it would have been better to save the money.

          Good point, I only have my AR soooo... I probably should go LE, plus a set just sold on the accessories page for 80$ so i could just take them off an part with them if need be.

              I got the regular VP9 since I mainly want to use it for the range and got the Streamlight TRL-1 HL, to compliment it, for $100 in case I want to use it for HD.

                I like the glowing sights (painted non-LE) for range use actually, seem more visible than night sights on my other guns, but I think I would rather have night sights just cause I love tritium, and well it would be nice if you needed to sneak around the house, flashlight might make more sense though. I just can't figure out why nightsights are always so expensive over regular sights when the tritium itself is pretty cheap, especially for such tiny vials.

                I just got a gun that came with Heinie night sights, I think I may now prefer those over 3 dots, but I'm still on the fence about that. I like all black sights with a fiber optic dot the best for range practice, and by far the most for outdoor use.

                Still I would have gone for the LE had it presented itself for only $80 - 100 more. You also get an extra magazine.

                    I think it's worth it. I like having lots of extra mags when I go to the range. more time shooting. less time reloading.
                    HK mags are $$$, especially the 10 rd mags.

                        I say get the regular version and pick the night sights of your choice.

                            holy deja vu. This will be the 3rd VP9 vs. VP9 LE thread that I've posted in within the past couple of weeks

                            $41 mag + $59 TruGlo sights.... you do the math.

                              ^This...is it worth it? IMHO, yes. But do you need/want it...?
