Same as I have on my 23/4. Just what I needed for 60'ish
eyes  . Very good for what they're designed for.

this type of question is very subjective. whats best for me might not be for you. do more reading at the sights subforum and decide for yourself.
my preference is plain black rear with white ring tritium sights by sevigny

Glock night sights. $57 installed in Smyrna, if you're close. If not, most places I've seen install for around $100.

2 hours ago I ordered a set of TruGlo TFO's off eBay for my Gen4 G23 because no one had them in stock locally. I like what I've read about them being super bright in daylight with the fiber optics and glow in the dark at night... Should be in my hands by Thursday so we'll see!

Didn't use loctite on the front sight screw, I'll wager.

I like Ameriglo Operators (green front/yellow rear). I have also used Meprolight, Glock factory night sights and Trijicons.

I use an Ameriglo ProGlo (Lime green) front sight with an Ameriglo Pro Operator (Yellow Tritium) rear sight. They don't come as a set, you have to order them seperately.

I like my Meprolight sights. I use orange rear and green front. This is what my wife has also. $84 shipped from Optics Planet. They can be ordered as a set.
The different color is a significant help in aquiring the front sight for us.

Depends on the kind of shooting you're doing.
And sights are a personal choise for sure.
I've got several types of NS.
But my favorites are XS Systems 24/7 Express Big Dots.
I have Ameriglo I-Dot Pros on my EXO G27.
But when the front sight came off I didn't hesitate to take the
opportunity to order some Big Dots.
They being installed, along with a smooth trigger, as we speak - LOL!

I have tried most of the big names in sights over the years..
I love Ameriglo for their sights, but also for great customer service.
If you have any questions whatsoever...they will answer them accurately and with a supportive attitude.
(i have Pro Operator sights on my G26)

Mepro or Trijicon both work well and they are low profile and won't snag on the draw. XS sights look good, but are rather high and could present a problem in an emergency.

Trijicon HD are the best by far out of what I have tried (which is between Trijicon and TruGlo)
