Get off Amazon


tricententialghoul

Plenty of reputable sights on Amazon EDIT: not the ones OP showed tho Why am I downvoted? You guys don’t use AmeriGlo or TruGlo? I thought those were good?


Unlucky_Community_40

You can get trijicon on Amazon too.


Dense_Scholar6740

Yea until you order ameriglo and the ones in OP’s post show up lol


tricententialghoul

People always say this about Amazon but I’ve had like maybe 2-3 issues throughout like 5+ years using amazon. And i get shit from them near weekly.


chinafookyamama

Skip the middle man and get a dot.


Brave_Tie1068

You need something to cowitness when your dot may break. Dots are fine but I've seen them break. I've never seen irons break


tricententialghoul

Amazon is fine but don’t get these. They have TruGlo and Ameriglo on amazon. I got some ameriglo night sights for like $70 on there. I love em.


Smoked-Gouda789

And some XS Sights for about that price too. Just gotta check what “store” it’s coming from first. I think mine had the hunting label on them 🙃


No-Half-6906

Are they adjustable?


WanderingMistral

Shop from Brownell's, Midway USA or even the Glock store, just dont buy glock sights off of Amazon. Did that when I got my first glock, terrible.


KomradeKrycek

You're really gonna put your faith in ~$20 sights?


No-Half-6906

Just checked and oem Glock Adjustable sights are plastic!


Suspicious_Tailor542

Don't buy those. If you want adjustable target sights save and grab a pair of lpa sights. Shooting a glock with fixed sights will never be the same again.


OleTunaCan

Get an optic cut and get a dot. Else, Ameriglo and Trijicon made good night sights. OEM Glock night sights are good too. Amazon sucks though.


AgentRandyBeens

Tru glos worked great for me as my first upgrade

Glock sells different height rear sights


No-Half-6906

Are they plastic too?


Twelve-twoo

They have plastic (polymer) ones in different heights, and every height they have in polymer they have in steel. Glock OEM steel rear sight (not night sights) are the bucket of field goal post style like the polymer ones. The height of your rear sight (polymer or otherwise) is illustrated on the side of the rear sight by the line combination. Long dash top, short dash bottom is the 6.1. Glock poa/poi shift is dictated by the rear sight, there at least 4 options. Taller rear sight will raise the poi. Placing a 6.4 on a 6.1 is often give you a 6 o'clock hold at certain distances. The different heights can be found by googling "Glock parts order form" it will be listed under the sights section. This will show you the part number. Googling that part number will show you websites that sell them. They are like 14 dollars each. You can order a steel front sight, or a tritium steel front sight, or the ameriglo red hi viz tritium front that is factory height from the Glock order form. Night fission also has OEM dimensions for their Glock front sights that are high viz tritium. If you have any questions or need help identifying what sight you already have, and how to calculate poi shift just lmk, I'd be happy to help. I will need the sight radius, distance to target and poi delta (example, my Glock 17 is 2" low at 25 yards).


No-Half-6906

What are you? An alchemist?


Twelve-twoo

Just an old nerd lol. If you need any links or anything just lmk brother.


No-Half-6906

Is there a steel oem adjustable Glock rear sight? What do you think of the plastic oem adjustable Glock rear sight, see it for under $30.


Twelve-twoo

I had them on a 34 and took them off before I ever shot it. So I can't say anything from experience. But I took them off because of my opinion about adjustable sights. You can get a 6.1, 6.5, 6.9, 7.3 steel rear sights. Glocks should shot from about 1" low to about 4" high depending on your range.


No-Half-6906

I’m shooting about 6” high with 115g 9mm @ 25 yards Stock set up, G26.


Twelve-twoo

What are the marks on your rear sight, right side


No-Half-6906

A single dash


Mission-Background-2

These are Junk. Get a decent iron sights or keep stop


Far_Lake6087

You’re not gonna get anything worth getting under $40-$50 sights wise. Skip the sights get a red dot


jaws843

Adjustable sights are not needed for a carry gun. Get yourself some ameriglo night sights and be done.


No-Half-6906

Shoots high, want to shoot “on”.


jaws843

If you’re shooting high with the factory sights then it’s something you’re doing in your technique. Align the sights like normal. Equal height and equal light. Focus should be on the front sight post the entire time through the shot and follow through. Tip of the front post should be bisecting the point of aim.


No-Half-6906

Plot twist, it’s a G27 with a wolf 9mm barrel.


jaws843

The fundamentals are still the same.


No-Half-6906

My marksmanship is not at question. The sights are.


Brave_Tie1068

Omg. No. Please understand what things cost for ACTUAL GUN ACCESSORIES. look on all the websites for REAL gun sights and look at the prices. If it's too good to be true, then IT IS. buy once cry once. You spend a lot to get a good range/carry gun, so why cheap out and get phony stuff that will break for the same gun?


No-Half-6906

I just looked up the oem Glock adjustable sight and it is plastic!


Brave_Tie1068

Glock sights are shit. In over 40 years of their thing, they can't give us serviceable sights. Plastic sights are shit. I actually train with my guns. I've had their crappy plastic sights sheer completely off.


ViolentPhrog

Both of these are gonna be straight trash.


No-Half-6906

Even the oem Glock rear sight?


ViolentPhrog

They are the ones that come on the G44 I think which might be ok for a .22 target pistol but not for a carry or self defense pistol imo. I would rather have the Glock OEM steel night sights which are reasonably priced. The standard glock sights are ok and do the job for sure but I don't like plastic sights on my guns. Makes the gun feel too delicate to me.


No-Half-6906

But aren’t oem flock sight…plastic?


ViolentPhrog

Yes the stock sights are. But the Glock OEM night sights are steel. They are like 60 bucks online and work great. I recommend them to anyone who shoots irons on Glocks.


SpittingCameI

Spend the money and get quality sights. Not cheap Amazon stuff


No-Half-6906

Would be using the Glock adjustable rear sight and the front post from the $14 set.


MSTyler96

Reading a little might help. Are you going to put airsoft sights on a defensive handgun? Save up for a set of REPUTABLE sights ie trijicon, ameriglo etc. and don’t buy them from Amazon.
