Please, I need help choosing night sights for my CCW

GM · October 17th, 2009, 12:16 AM

Hi,

I need to get a 3 Dot night sight system for my CCW, and I am considering two of them: the Trijicon and the Novak. I wonder if you have any experience with them, or perhaps you can recommend an even better sight system. The system will be installed by a gunsmith and not by me. All advices and ideas are very welcome!

I like my Trijicons for sure. Great day or nite. But my house guns have XS Big Dots on them. Very fast target aquisition. There are NOT range guns mind you in that they stink for accurately punching paper. I'm Considering changing out the Trij's on my G30 for the XSBD's but not until I have some fun guns for the range. When i get some, all my carry SD guns will have Big Dots on them.

I just replaced a Trijicon set that had been there for 21 years!

Give the XS sights a look.

I love my Glocks, they all have Trij's on them...

Have always had good luck with Trijicons and Meprolights.

I can support Novak sights without reservation!
Rugged and simple and rounded, they do the job and make no excuses!

Meprolights for me from now on. I've had the Trijicons and like the Meps better and they are usually less expensive.

Another vote for Trijicons here...

Meprolights on both my Glocks. Optics Planet had the best price for me.
