I'm thinking about picking up a 9mm shield with the interest free tax loan that Uncle Sugar just returned to me and wondering what you guys who own them are using for night sights? I've used and owned a handgun with just about every type of sight system out there (Big Dot, I-dot, 3 dot etc.) and don't necessarily have a favorite amongst them.

I've put I-Dot Pros (orange front) on all three of my M&Ps.  Love 'em.

I-Dot Pro's, I have both colors and I like the green front myself.

Oh cool, I have a set of I-dot's on my G21 but didn't think that they made them for the shield. Anybody got a link for them?

Sights are subjective to the shooter and to say which are the best to you is something that nobody can tell you.   You will have to figure it out unfortunately.  However, as people before stated, I have trijicon hd sights on my shield which I carry everyday.  The strong color on the front sight helps draw your eyes to the front sight.  The shelf on the rear sight is great for hand manipulations) and both sights have tritium inserts.  

The only negative I see is the ridiculous cant with a sharp edge on the rear sight.  I jabs me all the time when I'm moving alot.  I'm not sure way they left it that sharp.  

Some people don't like the double tritium inserts for rear sight so if you don't, they are not the ones for you.

I like the Ameriglo ProGlo lime green with plain black rear. Kind of like the Hackathorns, but the green picks up better for me.

Check out Quantico Tactical, they have Shields with Night sights in stock. I just got one in two weeks ago, It shoots great and a great price.
