Can't see your pistol sights??

These tritium night sights are Ameriglow which is owned by Trijicon. They both make these sights. The "U" shaped rear and the big orange dot with the tritium dot in the center really make a big difference for my old eyes. They are fast to acquire day or night. They make them for Glocks, and Berettas, and some other guns as well.

    I've had a few guns with night sights.

    Trijicons lasted quite a while past their expiration date, albeit dimmer.

    Some others didn't even last for the warranty to be up before they stopped glowing altogether.

    I've never had tritium night sites that were worth having.

    My new handgun has them. This is the first time I ever had these sights. I like yours better. What I like is, the offsetting orange on the front. Makes your eyes hone in on it better, especially for older eyes like mine.

    I have night sights on a couple Sig P226s, a 9 mm and a .40. They help a lot when I shoot marauding c o o n s tearing up my deck stuff at night.

    I mostly use lasers, but have found most of the laser grips for revolvers are junk. Meanwhile, back at the range, my eyes aren't gettin' younger. I need a 30 round revolver like Roy had so I can spray and pray.

    I sold a lot of handgun lasers; all Crimson Trace and I only remember having trouble with one and they took care of it right away. I never sold the Laser Max. I have seen them come apart inside a pistol and lock the gun up. Sig used to include one of their lasers with certain gun packages and they were pure junk.

    Interesting Ricci. I certainly respect your judgement and experience, but my experience with Crimson Trace is the reverse of yours.

    Do they work if you hold the gun sideways, gangsta style?

    Like the looks of those.

    We have night sights on several pistols and like them

    I have no problem seeing them.


    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain
