| All of my Xray3 equipped guns made it a couple of range sessions then got swapped out. The front post is to fat, the rear notch to narrow and I just don't pick up green that well. I had a set of XS DXT2 sights that I tried on a 228 but didn't like them on that gun. But the XS sight seems better suited to this little gun and the distance it gets shot at. Still have to hit the range and make sure they are on target but I like them a lot better than Xray3 sights. They are for a gun with 8/8 sights but I felt it was shooting a bit low at 3 and 15 yds using a combat sight picture so they should be OK. |

A day late, and a dollar short
| At ten months age, my P365 X-Ray sights are holding up just fine, and are dead nuts accurate for me, I like 'em.

I have several Sigs and they are all equipped with Sig light night sights (or what ever they are called) and they are great,but, I really do not like the X-ray sights. Particularly the rear sight. It is small and not very bright.
Any one else Feel this way? Has anyone already changed them if so with what?
I wasn't as crazy about the X-rays, either. Pretty good, stock sights for a pistol, however I prefer Trijicon HDs on most all of my carry pistols and therefore I changed mine out.

| I'd rather it be orange than green and have a more open U shaped rear, but they are very decent as is. |

| I think the X-rays are decent for stock sights but I'd much prefer a fiber optic/night hybrid that gives you a bright dot in ambient light brighter than twilight. My problem with night sights in general is that when it's dark enough to really see them it's too dark to clearly see your target.

| I just switched my x-ray for a set of tritium ameriglo pro-glo green front, white outline rear. I went with a one size shorter front sight to see if it will bring up the POI of 115/124gr ammo which shoots too low for my liking (I really don't like drive the dot). Haven't shot it yet though. But the pro-glo green front is brighter than the x-ray green and super bright if you hit it with a light for a second. |

| So far, I really like my 365, but, to see the stock sights, I need to wear my +4 shooting glasses. As a carry gun, I need to be able to shoot it accurately with my street glasses. I have Trijicon HDs on several of my other carry guns, and am looking around for a lightly used yellow, size 8, to bring up the point of impact. In the meantime, I ran across a Dawsen, night sight, with a white ring. I can't see it as well as an HD, but, I can see it well enough to keep all shots in the "head" of an IDPA, or USPSA target at 15 yards. I also added an Armalser in green |

Not quite at 10 months here, but ditto otherwise.

| My factory, front sight is a 6, and it shoots below point of aim. At some point I’ Going to replace it with an 8. |

In daylight I mostly just want a fast front sight acquisition. At night it helps me to have some rear sight acquisition (as single line would be fine) while putting the front sight on the target. So...best size? Best option for basic combat-type sights for quick center mass shots?
365 is a 6/8 combo. Marked on the sights. If you are on target get sights that are 6/8. If it seems to be low then get 8/8. Sights are all about personal preference. What works out well for one is the suck for someone else. For the 365 I like the XS sights, just cover the target with that big orange dot and go. I like the Trijicon HD XR sights also but they are kinda big for the 365. |
