This would be a good resource for folks looking to upgrade the stock sights on their G34/35

1.) What height front sight are you using?
2.) What Generation and model is your glock?
3.) What brand?
4.) What is your POA/POI and distance?
5.) What weight bullet are you shooting?

Additional commentary is welcome


Eta: model with generation. First two replies are 34's based on bullet weight

Same for me except for bullet weight.  I haven't started loading 9mm yet, so I'm shooting mostly 115 gr WWB, Federal Champion, UMC, Prvi, etc...whatever I get a good deal on.

Also using the same sights on my G19, G20, and G35.  I'm not sure the front sight is right for the G20, but I also have a .215" to try out.

1.) What height front sight are you using? - .245
2.) What Generation and model is your glock? - 34 gen4
3.) What brand? Warren
4.) What is your POA/POI and distance? - TBD
5.) What weight bullet are you shooting? - bulk 115 grain

Got the warrens installed, need to get to the range to verify POA/POI.

Once I determine the sight height is correct or needs adjusting I'll snag a tritium front as this will serve as an occasional CCW role along side its main role as a HD gun.

I do like the look of the new vickers front sight. Offered in .245 and .230

Got to the range this morning.

Using the Warren Comp set with the .245 front height - my POA/POI was on at 20-25 yards.

Since 95% of my pistol shooting is between 3-15 yards, the POI was noticeably low.

Ordering a .215 to see if that brings everything in line.

ETA: Warren .215 trijicon front ordered, I'll see how it shoots next weekend, now have the .245 as a spare I guess.

Can you use the Warren Sevigny front sight with the stock Glock rear adjustable sight on a G35?

I just ordered the Sevigny set with the .215 front.  My 34 shoots low with the OEM sights, so I'm hoping that the .215 will work.  I'd prefer to have POA/POI at about 15 yards and a slight 6 o'clock hold for longer targets (to see more of the target).  If it doesn't work, I'll just order whichever Dawson front sight that I need.

What Gen is your 34?

It seems that a lot of 34's are a sample size of 1 when it comes to POA/POI differences.

Gen 4.  Rested, it shoots POA/POI with the factory sights, so I know that the shooting low is me.  It did shoot low for my buddy also.  I don't shoot it rested though, so the shorter front sights might work out.

got the .215 trijicon installed.

I like it much better (visually) than the FO.

Will see how she shoots on Saturday

The .215 did the trick
