That's what I have on mine. The yellow rear was cheaper. I have never thought about the color difference, but the I-dots are great!

Sorry about the wait. I work two jobs and don't have much time. This is a comparison and illustration of the Trijicon HD night sight in yellow and orange.

Is there anywhere you can find a step by step process for installing Trujicon night sights? Are there any special tools needed before I buy them.

It would also be nice if we knew where you were getting all these great sights. Any links?

Trijicon (and others) can be found at www.opticsplanet.com for decent prices.

AmeriGlo sights are at www.ameriglo.com.

That should get you started.

Truglo TFOs on Glock 19, extremely bright sights. I was disappointed that the front sight screw is long therefore the front sight wiggles. Truglo said they are sending me a shorter replacement screw that will make sure it snugs up nice and tight. As soon as that happens I'll give you guys a range report too. They are by far the brightest sights I have ever used, from full day to full dark they are hands down the brightest!

My tfo's were like that. Take a small file and file it down slowly. That snugged mine up.

That's exactly what I ended up doing while waiting for the replacement screw. Now I have a spare screw to use if I ever need it lol.

Kinda liking the looks of the Ameriglo Pro Operator sights and was wondering if anyone has installed them with the MGW rear sight tool? IF so, what model is used? The one for the straight or the slanted model?

Thanks

I just tried a set of these on a Glock 21 (not mine) and I'm impressed. I thought I'd like the orange best, but the yellow really caught my eye better. Now I need a set.

I just installed a set of Pro Operators on a Glock 19 using the MGW # 309 GLK tool, worked like a charm. Love the sights too.

I just ordered the pro-glo front and a pro operator rear from Ameriglo. I'll try and get some decent pics once I get them installed.

I have a friend with a real camera. I'll see if I can't get some better photos sometime soon.

This is the proglo front with pro operator rear.

ETA: Here's a slightly better photo.

i believe so, my calipers are packed away in storage right now but i think that's all they offer for the competition front, this pic was takes about a foot from the gun, it doesn't look this narrow at arms length, shot my first match with them today and i gotta say i love these sights, the picture is so crisp/clear i couldn't be happier

Standard shitty pics to follow....


Ameriglo, the front is the GL-212-OR orange square with green Tritium and the rear is GL-229-OP-R Pro Operator with yellow tritium. Even my wife enjoys the orange front post more. I had the serrated rears that came with the orange square fronts, but I could not confidently line up the front sight to the rear notch in the dark. I could turn the pistol too far left or too far right and still see the front sight fine.
ETA I put these on with red loctite on the front and a MGW #309 GLK rear sight pusher(the one from Brownells is all black and comes with a sweet front sight tool/takedown tool).

Here are the ones on my wife's G27

I have 500 rounds through this G19 EXO, it's time to make it my daily CCW. So I installed some AmeriGlo I-Dot Pro's on her. (GL-201). I haven't shot with them on there yet, but so far, I like the looks over the stock sights, and even my Hack sights I have on my other Glocks... I will add a range report after I get through a few hundred rounds with these sights installed. *Range Report!* Today, I went to an indoor range that has very sketchy lighting, and let me tell you, this orange dot is freaking amazing. It was easy to pick up, my eye was just drawn to this thing. An over great improvement over stock glock sights (obviously), I also noticed that follow up shots were a tad quicker then normal, as I could keep track of the front post better. Distance shooting did not change either, I saw no accuracy differences out to 25 yards.

The only down side I can see from the actual product? They are "tall" sights. Also, my retarded ass installed the front sight not completely straight (Most people probably couldnt tell), although, the gun is still POA/POI, and its already lock tighted, so I don't really care. I think they are the bee's knees!
