In the next couple weeks I'm looking to find someone to install night sights on my Glock 19 in the Northglenn/Thorton/Brighton area. Any recommendations?

Neves has the tools but I don't know how much they charge for installation. Burt is currently doing little if any gunsmithing due to an injury. Westminster arms can do it as well.

YouTube it. Not hard at all. Ive done them on the tailgate of my truck.

I've got a sight pusher that I've used to install night sights on my G30 and G19.  Piece of cake.  Hell, if you're willing to come up to Boulder, swing by my office, bring your slide and sights, and you can bang it out in five minutes!

I might have a wounded wing but swapping Glock sights I can do with no hands!(nearly).
OP-I am right in your neck of the woods.

+1 for Burt OP.  Great gunsmith and always good conversation.

Don't do it on your tailgate, pay someone to have it done right.  Drift punching them in voids your warranty on tritium.

checking in on an old thread and don't know if you got it done.  

i'm no gunsmith but put XS night sights on in about 5 minutes.  if your hands and fingers work, you can do it yourself.  

Neve's had a glock days event several months ago, and those armorers essentially use the same method--pop the old ones out with a screwdriver and put the new ones in with a little glue.  Really is easy on a glock.

What happens when one needs to adjust them ?

put them in correctly and you don't have to.  If you need to adjust them, then it would be exactly the same as having a gunsmith do it--make the adjustment.

Did you ever find someone?  I just moved to broomfield and I have a sight pusher that fits Glocks also.  I don't mind helping out.

It's not "glue", it's Loctite and it should always be used on the screw that secures the front sight.
No adjustment required.

On the subject- elbows healing up a bit to where I can handle a sight swap or two.
Thanks
Bert
