lookin to add new night sights

[negolien]

I'm leaning towards the speed sights for both the xd's. I like the XS but the ball on the front post is too big imho. Good for fast acquisition close chest shots but I think I'd like to try something more accurate. Seems the speed might be a balance. I might get a trijicon for my kimber just to try it.

When I put SpeedSights on my XD9 4" Service, five years ago, I took a few pictures. I don't think they're ugly.

These rear sights are not tritium. I have a set on my VP9 that are all tritium. I can take pictures of those if you want me to. I like this setup better than the "equal height, equal light" three dot sights.

I have a set of standard TruGlo Tritium for my G17L, haven't had them installed yet.

I think I'll like them better than the plastic stock sights.

I also plan on replacing the U-notch sights on my Echelon. My old eyes need all the help they can get.


Thank you for your indulgence,

I ended up getting the tritium green front and tritium rears for both xd's. No issues with the front blade coming loose? Heard that was an issue sometimes. I really like the speed sights. That front blade 100% stands out LOL that's for sure. I'm waiting for info from bar sto on two .357 sig semi fit barrels. I'm getting for them same XD's. I'll take the sights and barrels in together for install. I had accidently thrown out the other sig barrel I had for my tactical sadly it was in an old case I threw away. Figured i might as well get barrels for both. Kinda curious how snappy the sub compacts gonna be with that ,357 sig

The tritium SpeedSights on my VP9 are really bright in subdued lighting. I'm sure you'll like them. I've had those sights on my XD9 for five years without a problem. The VP9 has worn them for a couple of years. Yeah, the green front sight really stands out. Nothing has come loose or moved. Have fun with them!

Awesome appreciate the advice. I gotta work on getting me some decent glasses now. Needing progressive bifocals sucks sometimes. I can get by with em but I really should wear em.
