Quoted: I need to get some suppressor height sights for my G19? Who makes a decent set. Is it a job I can do or something best left to a gunsmith? Ameriglo or Rainier Arms make good and reasonably priced ones. Take a look at some youtube videos on changing sights, it isnt hard but there are some nuances to get right so you do it correctly. |

Ameriglo makes a nice set. Simple sight pusher for the rear and a driver for the front and some loctite.
If you're near Cleveland, I can install them for you. No charge. |

I have Trijicon, Ameriglo and Night Fision.
Night Fision's are the tallest and Ameriglo's the shortest. All are good quality. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: What height is everyone using with an RMR for lower 1/3rd . Looking for a set for my 19 and notice alot of different options I'm using a .315" front, and a .394" rear on my G19 MOS w/ FCD mounting plate. It's the GL-429 set from Ameriglo that are all black so they don't interfere with your RMR's sight picture. |

Is the MOS slide cut the same ( depth wise ) as a Grey ghost slide , or any other aftermarket milled cuts ? |

The RMR cuts are deeper than the MOS with the plate. I've heard the GL-429 height sights give a perfect lower 1/3rd co-witness with and RMR cut. With my MOS it's slightly less. Maybe lower 1/4 or somewhere in between. They are as far out of the way while still being usable as you can get IMO. |

Quoted: What height is everyone using with an RMR for lower 1/3rd . Looking for a set for my 19 and notice alot of different options Trijicon GL201-C-600661 are my go to sights. They are tritium sights, but they do not have the white outlines. Are you going to be using the factory MOS plates or an aftermarket plate? This is a RMR Type 2 RM06 with the GL201 sights on a CHPWS V3 MOS plate. The CHPWS plates lower the sight a little more than the factory MOS plate, so just something to keep in mind.  Attached File |

Quote HistoryQuoted: No MOS , it's for a RMR milled Grey Ghost Precision slide , with an RM01 Then that would probably sit a little lower. I would look at the Ameriglo sights since you can choose your heights, although i think .394 is the shortest rear Ok, so i did some measuring. The measurement from Ameriglo is overall sight height, so the blade height will be shorter than the Trijicon sights. GL201 Blade Height - .3735 Overall height - .441 Blade heignt - .3135 Overall height - .390 For comparison, these are Ameriglo Suppressor height sights with a RMR Type 2 RM06 on a CP V3 MOS plate. They will probably be better for use with a milled slide.  Attached File |

I have Trijicon's GL201-C-600658 sights (with the blacked out rear) mounted on a Brownells RMR-cut slide, and they obscure much more of the RMR window than I would like because of how low the RMR sits. I like the flared base of the Trijicon front sight - I figured it would make it a bit stronger if it got snagged on something - but the excess height really wastes a lot of the sight picture. This is a fuzzy photo, but it does a decent job of capturing my sight picture. I'm going to look at the Ameriglo sights as an alternative.  Attached File |
