The stock sights work through a Firefox Sentinal and a Holosun 507K. That's the only ones I have person experience with, but would guess the others would be similar.

So what are the correct height sights in metal and in all black? It is cool that the Glock plastic bits co-witness but I’d like to get the same height in AmeriGlo (or similar).

I started a thread about this about a month ago and didn’t get much feedback. I picked up a G48 with a 507k mounted with a CHPWS plate. I picked up some Ameriglo GL-436 sights. I have about 1/8” of sights showing to cowitness. Definitely not ideal but works well enough.

Factory 43X sights are a .240" rear and .165" front. Ameriglo front and rear sights. They have the Defoor set for 43X too, it doesn't specify heights, but probably same as factory. |

I'm using 10-8, but they are taller than your standard sights.

I am trying the Swampfox Sentinel on the pistol. I'm liking the optic, but the factory sights, to me, are just a bit low-even with the optic. I'd like to try one of the others that are just a tad higher.
I'm not seeing much info out either on the sights to use. While looking at the Shield optic, I did notice that it appears to have a cut out to allow use of the factory sights.... |

Every one of my carry pistols (including my Glock 43X) have Novak Low Mount night sights on them. I also went with the Mega Dot Fision's front sight which really stands out to me.

It sucks your eyes right to it, love it. |

Ok, I took a chance and ordered suppressor height sighs(that say not for 42/43) to try. I'm still old school enough that I like to be able to see sights when needed.
Anyway, I installed XL Ameriglos with the Swampfox optic. As I'm still piecing it together, I have not fired it, but am happy with how its shaping up. With the talled sight, I hope holsters are not an issue. I prefer leather vertical carry OWB and it is already challenging to find a holster a like.

I have a Swampfox Sentinel for my 43x MOS and just ordered an XS F8 Night Sight. I think it’s slightly higher (couldn’t find specs but pic looks higher
 )than stock and I’m hoping it’s enough. We’ll see.

Looks like those sights are taking up almost half of your MRDS window. I'd go way lower on the BUIS height.

I haven't seen suppressor sights for the G43/43X/48 yet so I went with Night Fision sights for my G43X/507K. They just barely co-witness but they do.

I’ve been wondering the same thing for my swampfox sentinel! I haven’t found height sights yet. To the guy who bought the “not for 42/43” have you tried them yet?

Ok, before I even fired the above set up, I made some changes.
Holosun 507K and XS minimalist sights for 42/43/43X&48... My first round was dead center. I’m liking this set up so far.   |

Here’s my XS F8 Night Sights installed. I’ve shot with them and like the set up. Waiting for the TRL7 Sub to be released at the end of May (or so they say) and I’ll be stoked even more.
