You will buy a Glock
The Ameriglo Agent sight set is as close as you are going to get.

I don’t think Ameriglo sells the SPECIFIC FBI sights but as was said above the Agents are basically them.

As an aside I have been very happy with Ameriglo sights across the board, although I don’t specifically have a set of “Agents”.

Ameriglo's are great. I think I went with the Troopers with yellow front for my 43x.

I bought my Ameriglo Agent sights from this site:

Thanks, everybody! lkdr, I already found those sites at GT, so I ordered them just now.

Only issue is they use FedEx exclusively, but my FFL agreed to accept them. I should be in business next week.

If it’s a MOS then you’ll need the Ameriglo Trooper sight set . The Agents will hang off the back end of the slide by a small amount.

Oh, great! I better check it out.

edit to add: Ameriglo is closed for the day. Any idea how far out they will stick?

The pic I saw one time looked like a 1/16”.

Thanks, Nick, I'll have to check further tomorrow. Since Glock doesn't list Ameriglo sights on their website other than Bold, anymore, I doubt they'll be any help.

At :21 it looks like the sights are back from flush at the back of the slide. This is the guy, however, who I wasn't sure about since he's reviewing a 19M. It's clearly an MOS, though, but maybe not Agent sights.

It’s because of the MOS cut . With the cut the rear sight dovetail is pushed further back. If a non MOS sight is used it will hang over the end of the slide .
The Trooper sight is narrower for this reason .

I compared a 47MOS with the Gen 3 19 and saw what you were referring to, Nick. The dovetail is pushed back as you said.

I'm just going to compare the Agent sights when they arrive and decide, then, if I should return them or if they'll fit like they do in the video.

Checked out the Ameriglo web page, didn't see the Agent model but the Trooper is there, they also have a specific optic sight version avvailble with or without illumination and in various heights

I was too late contacting GT this morning, the sights are on the way. I'll just return them when they arrive, because I found Troopers at Aim Surplus and ordered them as well.

HRK, thanks for the link. The Troopers I ordered have the orange front and green rear illumination.

Anyone buy a Gen5 G17L yet? Thoughts? I’m looking at getting one. Then adding the Holosun SCS drop in-

I handled a G17L the other day. First time I’ve ever done so (old or new version). It handles way better than I thought it would but definitely doesn’t feel like a 34.

Not sure why you would get a “rifle length slide” Razz only to put an optic on it but the SCS would work just fine assuming the weight of the “L” isn’t on the teetering edge of reliability.

All that said……it’s a Glock. A big Glock. Smile

G43x MOS versus PSA micro Dagger. Glock wins but the PSA impresses me. After another 250 rds PSA goes in glove box. Glock still king of striker fired

I'm down to my very last glock which is a 48, that 365 legion with 17 rounds has put the glock fire out.

For the first time in decades I am without a glock. Its an odd feeling I must admit.
