Ghost sights on a Glock?

[Jcastaneda1105]

Recently saw that there are a few ghost sights for glocks. Never seem them available on a pistol before and was curious what the advantages would be over other types of sights?

Am looking at replacing the factory sights as I can't stand them.

There are many types of sights for Glocks on the market. What is the intended use for your Glock?

Mostly target, maybe a side arm when I finally get to go hunting. It's a 10mm.

There are no real advantages to using a ghost ring sight on a handgun. The work on rifles because of the additional contact point

There may be perceived advantages, but they aren't real...they are both slower and offer less accuracy.

The worst ones were the ones with white dots on either side of the ghost ring

I've used them on both a 1911 and a Glock 17

Hit the nail on the head. You're better off with tritium or some sort of fiber optic sight.

I have them on my Glock 35. I have the Ameriglo ghost ring, I like them, and I think its all about preference. To me theres no advantage, but there is also no disadvantage. It definitly better than the plastic adjustable sight it came with,LOL.

Ghost sites on handguns are ridiculous imo

I like the truglo TFO but also have the XS big dots and Trijicon HDs. The XS are not target sights, however.

I'm not sure that night sights are all that necessary but a contrast between the front and rear sight is.. At least for my old eyes.
