Trijicon.

Have you looked at XS big dots? I have those on my pistols and they are great.

I have green tru glos on my G22. They have tritium in them and are very bright.

The glock guy at the gun show installed them for me, I'm sure it's a pita to diy.

Not sure if it's a universal thing, but mine was. I ordered an apex trigger and the trijicon HD's to install in one sitting (changing the striker block requires removing the rear sight anyways, so figured it's best to do in one sitting). I ruined a brass punch or 2 after that. I taped everything up real good and went at it with some steel (either a punch or a flattened chisel, I feel like it was the latter). Finally came loose, but I had to go all Thor on it.

Trijicon HDs in orange are the GOAT night sight

I don't know if I like the look of the orange. I was leaning yellow if I went with the Trijicon.

Agreed. Trijicon HD yellow sights on my M&P compact that I carry. Very quick to acquire and surprisingly accurate at range too.

Trijicon night sights was the best money spent on a gun.

Slight thread hijack here- I have 2 guns with old Trijicons in them, a Beretta 92FS and a S&W 915. Don't they replace the vials for a good price?
How hard/expensive is that to have done? Send slide only, how long does it take etc?

I have Trijicon HDs on my G19. They have been perfect so far.

Trijicon makes Ameriglo sights -- at least the front sights on mine (carry gun, range clone & nightstand gun) say Trijicon on them.

Trijicon makes the tritium lamps.
