1911 Trijicon HD Sights Your Experience

[ElvenSoul]

So I see Trijicon has a Orange Front Sight. Thinking of trying out. I see they sit just a little higher up than Novak.

Any holstering problems?

I haven't had any, three of my carry guns have them(Glock 19,23,43). For CC I prefer leather IWB and for most other range work Kydex OWB, they cause no issues with either. I really like them but they are overpriced.

I had them on a Range Officer Compact that was a carry gun and had no issues at all with a Milt Sparks VM II holster. I had the yellow front and my 50 year old eyes loved those sights.

Looking orange or yellow for easy on old eyes. Why does Novak not offer colors?

OP, I have HDs on a Glock 17 and 30sf, yellow and orange respectively.

IME, the orange is definitely easier to pick up in any lighting condition.

Presently using Idot Pros on a Glock 19, 26, 30. For me they are great sights on shorter barreled pistols. The HD sight picture gets a little busy on the smaller pistols. Their cost is much more reasonable compared to the HDs.

Will be switching the HDs on the 30sf to Idot Pros and using the HDs on a Glock 20sf.

They are both excellent sights and no holstering problems in various kydex or leather holsters.

I know how they fit on Glocks
