Looking for a set of fiber optic front and back rear. Looking at ameriglo, taran tactical, trijicon, dawson and Warren tactical.
Is there anyone better or worse or best bang for the buck
Thanks all
Going on a glock 34 for target shooting accuracy

The Taran TactIcal Innovations (TTI) sights are good sights and I use them on several guns, including the guns I use to compete in GSSF. The one benefit of the TTI sights, compared to the Dawson sights, is that the TTI sights are Ion Bonded, so they are more corrosion resistant. The downside of the TTI sights is that one size fits all. The benefit of the Dawson sights (which I also use on several guns) is the ability to customize them in terms of size, but they are parkerized and more prone to showing corrosion over time. A light coat of oil on the sights and you won’t have an issue. Another benefit of Dawson sights is that if you use their recommendEd heights and your gun isn’t hitting POA/POI, you can get a replacement front sight for free to get your gun zeroed. Vogel Dynamics also makes sights for the GLOCK, which are similar to the TTI sights, but Vogel uses a wider rear notch and his sights will print a little higher on target than the TTI sights.

I have had TruGlo TFOs on a few Glocks and liked them. I still prefer them for the nightstand guns.

For competition, I have swapped everything over to Dawson. Solid black rear and FO front. They will show corrosion, but nothing a minute with a Sharpie marker doesn’t fix.

Hi Viz makes a set of FO front and rear sights for Glocks. They also have a rear sight that is adjustable.
I use their front sights on my Glocks and I like them. They seem to be brighter than other FO sights I have bought or have looked at.

I’ve been shooting USPSA and multigun matches for about 20 years. I first tried the Dawson sights when they first came out in early to mid 2000s. I’ve tried all brands and yes the Dawson sights rust…but it’s never held me back. I made master in USPSA production with rusty sights that never failed. They seem more robust than other brands especially the front sight. It has reinforcement at the base.

I've got both Warren Tactical sights on a G19 with a green fiber optics rod in the front, black rear sight that I shoot in GSSF, and a G34 with Dawson precision target sights, red fiber optic rod in the front. On my G23 I've got Wilson Combat sights w/ a green fiber optic rod in the front, black rear sights. I believe that the Wilson's were designed by Larry Vickers. All of them are great sights!
