We gave them a Grade: A ranking, along with the Meprolight Tru-Dot tritium.
#Glock night sights .300 upgrade#
Overall, we found the TruGlo sights to be a nice upgrade and would recommend putting them in place of the standard non-tritium sights on any factory Glock. The MGW mover requires oil on the crankshaft, but it made drifting the dovetail sights in and out so easy we quickly misplaced our punch set. You can drift the sights out with a punch, which will save $100 for the MGW tool, but you risk rupturing the tritium capsules. Upgrading fixed sights can seem like a challenge to someone who hasn’t done work on pistols previously, but with these tools and the simplicity of Glock’s designs, this upgrade is a great place to start if you want to attempt a DIY project.

We shaved just over a full inch off our average group size at 10 yards once we installed them. The Meprolight Tru-Dots provided an even more impressive change on the G34. The green front sight was quite bright, while the rear yellow sights were significantly dimmer, although still visible. We turned down the lights over the shooters, leaving the targets illuminated to check out how much the tritium would glow in the fiber-optic sights. We took to the range with the TruGlo sights installed, using all other original parts, and we cut our average group size down by almost half an inch, from 2.3 inches with the standard Glock to 1.9 inches with the TruGlo sights. We used the same process to put the Meprolite sights onto a factory Glock 34.ĭespite the new TruGlo sights being fixed like the originals, we found them to be much clearer and easier to acquire and reacquire targets. The new rear TruGlo sight did require some minor fitting with a file and a little more strength to slide in, but with the MGW tool, leverage was not a problem. The old sight drifted out with relative ease, going left to right pointed away from us. The device came with some thin plates to raise the slide up the right height. Once the front sight was swapped, we hooked the slide into the MGW. With the Ed Brown front sight tool and a small crescent wrench, we loosened the screw beneath the sight and removed it, then replaced the white dot with the new TruGlo front sight and tightened with the crescent wrench.
Part: MGW309) for the rear sight, we started the switch with a disassembly of the slide to get access to the front sight. Part: 952) and the MGW Glock Sight Mover ($100 sold separately, #584-045-017WB, Mfr. With the Ed Brown Front Sight Tool for Glock ($20 sold separately, #087-017-001WB, Mfr. We chose to put the TruGlo sights on the Glock 17 and the Tru-Dots on a G34 so that we could shoot them side by side. Part: TG131GT1Y), yellow rear and green front. Since we had the installation tools handy, we also ordered a set of TruGlo tritium fiber-optic Brite-Sites ($90, #902-000-107WB, Mfr. One was the Brownells Glock 17 Sight Upgrade Kit ($200, #080-000-919WB), which included a Meprolight (Kimber) ML-10224 Tru-Dot Night Sight System for Glock 17, 19, 22, 23, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 37, 38, 39 an MGW Glock Sight Adjustment Tool, and an Ed Brown Front Sight Tool for Glock. We gave the Ultimate Kit an A grade, saying it “was the upgrade that produced the biggest difference in performance all by itself, increasing the accuracy of the Glock 17 from an average grouping of 2.3 inches down to 1.6 inches.”Īlso in the April 2014 issue, we looked at two sight-upgrade kits, both from Brownells. There, we installed a Zev Technologies’ GlockWorx Ultimate kit from Brownells ($250, #100-006-566WB, Mfr. We dealt extensively with the issue of trigger replacements in the April 2014. About the only modifications that actually improve the Glock are the addition of a better trigger and a set of aftermarket sights. These sights may require gunsmith installation depending on skill level.As a carry handgun, the Glock is rugged, reliable, and combat worthy. Since these sights are "powered" by external light sources, there are no batteries needed and no dead batteries when you really need your sights. The high visibility of the fiber optic sights gives a clear sight picture. The TFX sights utilize the bright and durable fiber optic tube arrangement with two green dots on the rear sight and one green dot with red circle on the front sight. These fiber optic sights are a two piece combination sight system that replaces your factory sights.
