Having such a large front sight post gives you much more to focus on when drawing your Glock or any gun and trying to find that sight picture. In a defensive situation, your eye is going to be drawn all over the place, and focusing on that front sight for good shooting technique may be difficult.
If I have to pull my gun to defend my life, perfect shot placement is a secondary concern to getting rounds on target quickly. I just need to get hits on the upper torso before he gets to me.
This sight setup helps with that. And Trijicon night sights only add to that reputation for reliability and function. Trijicon has long been the standard for most night sights, so much so that many OEM manufacturers actually use Trijicon night sights in their upgraded or high-end guns, and many other sight manufacturers actually use Trijicon inserts. Before we wrap this one up, I do want to make a note about pistol-mounted red dots.
Red dots, in general, have come a long way in the last decade or so, and nowhere is that more evident than in the multitude of optics-ready pistols that are being made for concealed carry. In no particular order:. Try them and see which ones if any you might want to carry.
I hope this look at all the options out there has helped somewhat, and if so, let me know in the comments, either here or on social media. The tritium illuminates the rear and front sights; however, the front sight glows brighter, which helps you focus on it instead of the target or the rear sight. Some users may have some issues with the front sight being large or fat, but it also makes it easier to sight in faster, based on the experience of some shooters.
This is probably one of the best Glock night sights, especially if you are just going to use this in the evening. Total darkness or low light, this night sight is an alternative to your stock sight because of its big dot.
Both front and rear sight have green tritium 1 lights that give impressive luminescence, especially if this is left under sunlight. The tritium line is still visible even if away from direct sunlight once in low light situations. This is a perfect fit for a Glock The two-dot system has a better and faster acquisition, and the big rear notch will quickly line you up.
Installation-wise, you may have to struggle to put it on, especially if you do not have a background. For those deciding on putting a sound suppressor or have already placed one on your Glock 19, you already know that the diameter of the sound suppressor exceeds the height of the stock sights. It follows that you would need something elevated to correct the sight picture. The best solution for this is a night sight set of elevated sights that can self-illuminate to use in low light conditions effectively, and this is precisely what this night sight set can provide.
Other night sights do not have this type of design but this reputable gun accessories company, Trijicon, took the initiative and considered the condition that is most likely a dilemma of many shooters. Your Glock 19 will no longer be a difficult tool to fire in whatever lighting condition you may be. This particular piece is far different from the rest of the Glock sight listed here.
Instead of the tritium inserts you see on most night sights, this only has three green dots that glow in the dark. You can be sure that this is durable as it is made of CNC-machined steel, finished with a Fortress coating.
This sighting system is best for active users, especially with weapons that have strong recoil. It is very durable, and you can be sure it will last for a long period. This is actually a good fit for a Glock 19, the Glock 26, and other Glock pistols. The lights are also exceptionally bright, especially if your weapon was exposed to strong light and you transition to a low light location.
The very common night sight is the three-dot design using either three tritium lamps or fiber optic rods. The three-dot design is normally seen on combat sights where one is in front, which should be appropriately mounted to align with the two at the rear sight position.
Another option is the two-dot design where the lamp is in front and another beneath the notch opening. This is preferred by many as it gives faster front sight acquisition, although it still depends on the user and the time frame you have.
This is mainly because of the tritium phosphor lamp and the fiber optics found in these Glock pistols. Other options are used on other sights; however, if you want consistent front and rear sights during daytime or night, the best night sights for Glock or any concealed carry are those with tritium.
Search for a night sight with a rear sight that can easily line up with the front sight. A pistol sight can be in many designs. Make sure you choose one wide enough for you to find the front sight as soon as you make target acquisition.
This is not really essential to make the settings of your pistol sights better but more on making it functional, especially during daylight shooting. This is found on the front surrounding the lamp. You always have to remember that labels are not that reliable. Whether used in competitions, hunting, or self-defense, durability is a must. In normal lighting conditions, your eye will probably pick up more white than green, but as the light lessens, the green glowing dots become more pronounced.

The great thing about these sights is the photoluminescent paint that immediately draws the eye to it. That said, I found it incredibly easy to consistently hit my targets at the range at multiple distances. The 3 green dot tritium night sights are incredible.
