Fiber optic sights

[MA5177]

Just picked up my new gen 3 Glock 34 and want to upgrade the sights.
This was a blue label gun and I didn't realize they come with standard sights and a 5.5 connector Anyway it was a great deal and wanted fiber optic sights anyway so I am looking for some input.

The two that I have been looking at are the Dawson and the truglo, which is better? Any other sights I should be looking at? This will mainly be a range/ plinking gun, don't want night sights. Thanks

Depends on how your eyes likes them, if you need 3 dots, 1 dot in the front with a solid rear, or if you needed those to double as tritiums. I have Warren Tacticals on my G17 and Dawson Precisions on my USP. I prefer the Warrens.

Dawson's for me.
Their front sights use a 0.040" rod and counter boar installed = small dot and sharper than most other sights out there.

Heinie rears are a great combo, but Dawson also makes some great rear sights as well.

I tried Warren Tactical, nothing bad to say, I would recommend.

Just depends on what your eyes like.

MA5177, I have Dawson front sights on my 3 USPSA pistols (and also my carry pistol). I have been very happy with the quality and price of Dawson products.

Dawson chargers on G19.

I don't shoot fast enough to need .135/.105

Exhile Machine has Warren Tactical for like $60 after shipping!!!

[agent88]

What size are your Chargers, agent88?

.225T. .125N
.105W front

I didn't like the way the chargers looked on Dawson's site but I think they look great in person. Just put them on haven't tried them yet. Saved about $15 because they are on sale right now.

Don't get anything on your rear sight. Here you go:

Thanks for the info, but why black only in the rears opposed to the dots?

[5ZS]

What ever you are more comfortable looking at, is my story.

But yes, I am on the front dot and all black rears as well. For bulls-eye precision, you are suppose to line up the top post and not the dots. The 3-dot combat makes it a little busier than needed, and may or may not affect precision. Some people may look at 3-dot combat sights faster and utilize them better, but not for my eyes.

Heck, if anyone can do it well with plain iron sights, rock on! My eyes are old, I need the red dot for quicker front post acquisition.

10-8's are good as well. If you have the $$$.
