Breaking New sights Arrrrrg!!
I finally did it, brand new set of ameriglo agent orange night sights with a broken tab, I don't know what I did wrong as I have changed out probably 20 of these. The old ones came right out with no problems and a minute later went right back in Big Grin makes me sick Dammit!!

Since you've changed out about 20 and assuming it's not like you were careless (hard to imagine since it's not something you can do with your eyes closed), perhaps it's bad like it had a (I forget the name) weak spot where it broke off. Stress fracture! or something like that.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

I'd at least contact the company, too see if they've had any issues.

If you email Ameriglo and say "I'm an idiot and broke the sight", the odds are they will just send you one. I lost a Glock front sight screw for one of their sights trying to install sights at the range. Emailed them asking to buy a replacement and they sent me a little bag with three or four of them for free. Good people.
