Which sights on your carry gun?
« on: February 09, 2014, 11:49:29 AM »
Like the title says, which sights do you have on your carry gun?

I am looking to replace the stock glock (23 and 21) sights for some tritium night sights, and have been looking at TruGlo TFO's and XS Big Dots. I just want to see what you guys are using and or recommend, plus I'm curious in general.

Thanks!

I have the stock sights on all my handguns, but I don;t really use them.  I learned years ago to shoot a handgun instinctively.  Works for me  :tup:

 :yeah:copy that. For a carry defensive gun, its instinctive down the barrel. Care less about little tiny groups with using sights, its all about how quick clearing leather and emptying on center mass!

 :)Having good night sights does nothing to stop someone from shooting instinctively, they just give you options. I do not like the type with tubes, too weak looking.

"clearing leather" is figurative...I use both leather and Kydex also. :)

Carry guns have sights??  Never noticed them before---  :chuckle:
If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

When Bernie Madoff did it, it's called a "Ponzi Scheme"
When Government does it, it's called "Social Security"

Night sights also glow in the dark, possibly giving away your position...........
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

I really never found sights on a defensive carry gun all that useful. :dunno:

In fact, I carried a Detonics MK VII for a while and loved it. I'd love to have that pistol back BTW. :bash: :bash:
