Depends on which Glock. ALL have different sights, most recently the AG Bold on the G5 17. Older models in my collection have TruGlo TFX's and/or GNS. Competition G22 has Dawson fiber front and rear.
Glock night sights are the best bang for your buck IMO. LE/MIL pricing on Glock night sights is $57.20 installed at my LGS, pretty hard to beat if you like night sights. That being said I also love TruGlo TFX Pro's and the Bold's that are an option on the Gen5's as well.
Mine are mostly Dawson, but have some Warren Tactical, Heine, Meprolites, and Battle Hook sights. Plastic sights have no place on a competition or working gun.

It’s all a personal preference thing. Some folks like night sights while others don’t . No wrong answers. I prefer TroGlos on mine with the exception of my 19C (exhaust gases are hard on tritium, ask me how I know, lol)
I was thinking of installing GLOCK OEM STEEL SIGHTS that resemble the plastic sights on one of my Glocks, but I dont want to damage my slide without the proper tools, I might bring it to a local indoor range that has a gunsmith that specializes in installing sights and other repairs
Well, yes, but eventually reinstalled the stock sights.
I had at least two, and maybe three, Glocks retrofitted with tritium night sights. I never thought they were bright enough to make any difference except in near darkness. And, my thinking went, what good are night sights if you can't discern the target? Anyway, when the glow of the sights eventually faded, I didn't like the small size of remaining dots. So, I reinstalled the stock sights.
Instead of night sights, my house gun has a bright Streamlight *and* a Crimson Trace laser sight. Those are my night sights.
My 26 Gen 3 wears Truglo TFX Pros. All I needed to swap out the factory sights was a wooden dowel as my punch for the rear and the tool for the front sight! I could not believe how easy it was!!
