Sights for Glock 19

[whtl]

I'm looking for the right sights for a Glock 19. Best use for day and night. Thanks.

I have big dots on my 19. They arent target sights, they are fighting sights.

YMMV

What are the intended uses of the pistol? SD/HD, CCW, planning on shooting any USPSA/IDPA, target shooting?

Trijicon HD's are a good choice. I have the orange set on my G19.

big fan of the xs sights but are they friendly to install with basic tools?

If you want my opinon, they are very easy to install. You need to wack out the rear factory sight and slide the new one in. Unscrew the front sight out of the slide and screw the new one in.

They send you a plastic punch and little socket tool in one, plus loct-tite.

If the idea is getting your front sight center mass on a moving target and interupting tunnel vision (and that is the idea) I have never seen better ones. If you are shooting groups, not so much...

They dont adjust or anything. What you see is what you get.

The tritum is bright too. Like I can see it across the room clearly in the dark. I am not sure if thats good or bad. It will wear down with time I am told

I'd recommend Heinie Straight Eight night sights with LEDGE.

I like that they're basic black serrated sights without white outlines.

The ledge feature allows for super easy one handed racking of the slide.

The 2 dot design is the easiest to use in the dark IMHO. I've owned multiple 3 dots, and I prefer the 2 vertical dots by far.

The setup with a fiber optic in front and blacked out rear is absolute **** in the dark and in use with a white light. My friend thought it was so great until we were shooting in low light. He went back to 3 dot night sights.

I'd have Heinie install them as he installs them himself.

if you are willing to try 2 dots, go with these:

if you MUST have 3 dots, then these:

Another +1 for the Trijicon HD's, I have the yellow set on my 19.
