Hey guys,
Been researching extensively...trying to figure out which sights I'm gonna slap on my 30S. I really like the TRUGLO TFO option, but I've been reading/watching a lot of complaints regarding the tube flying out of the front sight post while firing. Has anyone had this issue? Do any other manufacturers offer a TFO option? I'll provide one video below where you can watch this dude's fiber optic tube fly out. Also, if I do just settle for the TRUGLOs, apparently the set for the 36 (model number TG131GT2) will fit the 30S without any modification.... Anyways, thanks for reading. Any help is greatly appreciated. http://youtu.be/LFOILHUHDD4 |

I say just go with trijicon HD night sights. The TFO's get terrible reviews and to be honest the bright outline on the front HD sight is more than adeqaute for day time shooting.
Edit: I will have to respectfully disagree with the above poster about the XS big dots, I do not think a sight that big aids in anything but clothing snags unless you're old and really cannot see the front sight. |

I have TFO's on my RTF2 17, yellow rears and green front. They are not bad, light up bright but the rear notch is a little too tight for me. I like a little more air between the front sight and the rear. I have several different types of sights on my Glocks, but prefer the Trijicon HD's, two of my four carry Glocks have them.
Glocks with aftermarket sights.

How many glocks do you have that don't have aftermarket sights?! |

Seems like the HDs are the winners around these parts. I'll just hold out to my next paycheck and pick them up probably. Hard to scratch a few pennies together when I'm building a new scary black gun. -Andrew |

Before shopping for sights, I had the opportunity to view Trijicon HD, BIg Dots, TFO, and 10/8's, outside and in low light.
In the end I went with TFO in primary b/c it suited my situation best (older eyes/script glasses/astigmatism). TFO in primary G19, XS Big Dot in BUG G17. All the major brands work well, just have to find what works best for [you], gl.

XS Big Dots.... I agree most heartily with the above. I have XS Big Dots on my 30s and they are perfect for the gun and it's intended use. XS Big Dot sights are EASY to aquire (see) and FAST on target, both during the day and especially at night....<><....:) |
