I can only say that my experience with them in competition was lousy......under stress I am not able to change my sight picture (which is exactly what XS calls for you to do past a certain distance). Head shots past ten yards were extremely difficult for me to make. Some people love them and I am glad.....it helped me sell mine quickly :mrgreen:

I bought a used Glock a few months back and could not get them off fast enough. It was a big lesson for me not to believe every amazing video on the internet. That said, I know that Flintknapper uses them and I trust what he has to say when it comes to training and what is useful.

They are definitely an expensive sight that anyone would do better borrowing for a test run before purchase. If you like them, the customer service they offer is absolutely amazing.

Re: glock sights

With the exception of Ameriglo.....I have tried everything mentioned above and taken every one of them off! The XS sights were the biggest overall disappointment for me because of not being able to hit squat past 15 yards with them. The rest of them offer a front sight that is a bit fatter than I like. The thinner the better in my opinion.

I prefer keeping the rear sights black.......you are really looking at the front sight, so anything on the rear ones just ends up being a distration to me.

Warren Sevigny sights are the best on the market in my opinion.......I have purchased several sets for my guns. The Sevigny carry sights have a huge opening on the rear sight and offer the best sight picture I have ever seen.

I will even quote Charles Cotton, "that is almost like cheating". He might not like the gun, but he does enjoy hitting things with it :patriot:

The link lists a few places that sell them...I have not had a bad experience with any of them. Best of luck.
