Sights

Rear sights and front sights

Metallic sights remain the primary aiming system for pistols and carbines, and a quality set improves acquisition speed and accuracy. The collection includes fiber optic sights for sport shooting, tritium sights for low-light visibility, adjustable rear sights, and suppressor-height sights for use with red dots, from brands such as HIVIZ, AmeriGlo, Trijicon, Truglo, UTG, and Toni System.

How to choose

• Weapon model: rear and front sights are specific to the model (for example, Glock, CZ 75 and Shadow, 1911, Tanfoglio) and to the dovetail size.
• Sight type: fiber optics are highly visible in daylight, tritium also in the dark; some sights combine both solutions.
• Height: with a red dot mounted, taller sights (suppressor height) are needed for co-witnessing.
• Installation: a sight pusher tool is often required; if you have no experience, rely on a gunsmith.
