Anyone out there own one of these? How are they compared to Trijicon HD’s or even just standard Glock night sights?

...

I'm interested in hearing this too. Trying to make the same decision between the HD XR's or Ameriglos.

I have the Trijicon XR's on mine. I looked at a G48 a few days ago with the Ameriglos on it, but didn't like them.

I had a set of amerglos on a G43 at one point; the CAP sight, I think. It looked amateur. It looked like a sight with the tritium vial sticking out slightly and orange paint slathered around it. It looked cheap to me.

The XR's are better sights, in my opinion, and I like the way they're shaped, and the way the front sight settles into the deeper u-notch on the rear sight. I also like the way the rear sights don't stand out much in daylight; the rear dots are more subdued, focusing attention on the front sight. The front sight width is also appreciated, and isn't as wide as a city block.

I've been putting these on, the orange really stands out and seem well built. https://www.amazon.com/AmeriGl...-Glock/dp/B005BSOHMI

I have the Ameriglos on my G48. Pretty much all my Glocks and Sigs have been fitted with Trijicon HD’s past few years. I find the Ameriglo sights in the G48 to be equally good. The orange stands out well both at indoor and outdoor ranges.

I recommend the Ameriglo upgrade on the G48 without reservation.

I looked at one yesterday. I really liked the sights, more so than the Trijicon HDs I got on a used pistol I purchased one time. The front blade looks a little thinner and more precise than the HDs.

Does anyone know what AmeriGlo calls those sights? They seem to have a lot of sights with similar setups but different names. They’re promoting Agent sight now and pushing people towards Brownells but I don’t know if those are the same.

I’m really liking them but it did take a bit of adjustment to get used to. I’ve got the Trijicon HDs on my G19 and liked them but after a little bit of dry firing and range time I like the Ameriglo better. The orange dot is nice during the day.

I went with Ameriglo Pro i-dots. I have 2 sets of Trijicon HD/XRs, but I can't seem to get over the sharp corners of the rear sight digging in my gut.

I have a G43X with night sights, i wanted to get the ameriglo one but they were hard to come by in LEO pricing. I know ameriglo sells just their front sights does anyone know if i can change to the orange front sight only and keep the glock night rear?

Probably. You'd have to make sure you got the right height front sight. Brownells carries different height Ameriglo fronts for the Glock.

The Agent sights are almost identical to the set Glock puts on, but have the u-notch rear instead of square.

I have them on my G48. Without them I probably would have passed on this firearm. They were the tipping factor.

That sounds even better. May have to get some of those. Thank you.
