GLOCK NIGHT SIGHTS COMPARISON MANUALS

On the other hand, TFO illuminates well when placed under sunlight thanks to its fiber optics. Visibility gets worse when placed in spots with low light. However, the illumination wonвЂ™t be visible under sunlight. When being used during the day, Meprolight and Ameriglo sights are no different from a normal white 3-dot sight. Glock rear sights are mounted on the dovetail, thus making the width measurement negligible. Note: This is just the overall measurement with the exclusion of the dovetail. Users of Trijicon sights have been complaining of having problems with the white paint on the sight cleaning off the instance a solvent touches it. The one I have wouldnвЂ™t shake a bit no matter how hard I smack it. Its fiber optic kept losing or falling off. TFO being the longest is 0.965 inches in length followed closely by Meprolight which spans 0.497 inches (12.62mm).ДЇrom what I have gathered, I got to know that TFO sights werenвЂ™t that good in the time past. None of the three sights have the same length. Due to the fiber optic component of TFO, its front and back are long. What this means is that they have a standard front sight post, a dovetail at the back, and 30 degrees viewing angle.

Meprolight sight and Ameriglo fit well on any gun they are installed on like the Glock pistol. They are made in such a way to last you a long while. Good enough, each of the sight is sturdily constructed.

However TFO sights are made of fiber optics and donвЂ™t have white ring installed on them. Meprolight and Ameriglo sights come with a small ring white in color and installed around the tritium, making is easy to be used during the day. Tritium is quite pricey costing around $30,000 for every gram.Д®ach of the three sights is made metal at their base, and contains tritium for illumination at night. Devices like betalights leverage on this and are used for night sights and watches. Tritium is an isotope of Hydrogen with radioactive properties, which gives off electron and causes phosphorous to glow when it gets struck by the flow of electron.

They all fit well on Glock Pistol (9mm) and can be used at night.ДЄfter reading the manuals and documentations of Ameriglo, I found out the the Ameriglo sights is marked as Trijicon (contains Titanium) and manufactured by Trijicon. This time around, I have tried out Meprolight (ML-10224) sights, Ameriglo (GL-115) sights and TruGlo TFO (TG131GTIY) fiber optic sights. I have been busy lately upgrading the sights of some of my pistols.
