I purchased front and rear Trijicon night sights for one of my carbines. I wanted to see if I could place my front sight on a target located in a dark or "shadowed" area.  Late last night (very little moon light) I got up and practiced acquiring a sight alignment with which I had no problems.  

The rear sight created a green blur that filled and nearly blocked my right eyes field of view.  I assume this is one of the reason many people do not like the Trijicon rear sight on there rifle?  

How useful is a Trijicon front site post when used in conjunction with a normal A2 aperture?  

Is it true that the light from a Trijicon night site is very apparent to someone using a night vision device?  Any input would be appreciated.
