I got a chance to take a look at the new Steyr M-A1 pistol today.  One of the best features has got the triangular/trapezoid "pyramid" style sights.  (see below)    Once you get use to them, I'm thinking that they're going to kick-ass for practical shooting.

Anyhow, it got me thinking.  Does anyone make an aftermarket sight in this style for Glocks?  I'd love to have a set of sights like these for my G17 that I use for IPSC shooting.



Maybe AroTek or Novak?

I played with a steyr for 6 or 800 rounds and found that the sights were acceptible for precision shooting but that the picture was a little too complicated for shooting fast (i.e. practical pistol/defensive type) shooting.  I tried to like them but just couldent get the clean site picture I needed to go fast.

It sure looks busy and complicated. Just the picture gives me a headache

I have an old Steyr S9 with the same sights.  I like them, just no night sight options in that configuration.  The old M9 has the same sights also.
