I have Ashley (now called XS Sights) on my Glock 19 and have ordered one for my snubby. I wish my agency would let me put them on my duty weapon. Now I do it differently, I only use the front "big dot" and standard Novac rear sights.
Personal experience is that for those of us who eyesight is not what it once was the big dot allows VERY quick front sight pickup. Its a personal thing and I think it works for me. One more point, I also know that Jeff Cooper has the big dot on his 1911 with a Novac rear sight that has been slightly opened up. That alone should be enough of a reason but heck if you dont like them there easy to change, as a Sig front night sight can be bought for about $30.
