You can get the Sevigny carry sights plain, front tritium, or front and rear tritium (straight 8 type).

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.

I put Trijicons on my G26 almost 8 years ago, and they are still glowing brightly. I was lucky and got a contrasting green rear/yellow front set, and really do think that this is the way to go. With both sights being the same color, it take a little more time lining up a shot in low light.

I've heard or read that the green lasts at least 50% longer than the orange or yellow tritium inserts. Is that true? I've never tried the two color sights before, but I can see where it would be good to know instantly which dot is the front if you were a little distracted by something else. I also saw an add for blue tritium sights. Has anyone ever used blue before?
