New sights on the G43

Nice setup looks great.

No need tritium on the rear sights? Range use only? Just curious.

I never felt the need to have tritium on the rear sights. With one or two tritium dots on the rear, it just looks way to "busy" to me. In a quick defensive situation, I'll most likely be point shooting, or using the front sight as more of a "red dot" type of sight as opposed to spending time trying to line up a bunch of dots.
This setup allows for accurate, and fast shooting for me when needed, whether it's day or night.
It's what I choose for range use, IDPA, and defense.

I am going to get a set of night sights for my G43 the first chance I get. LGS has them installed for $60.

I had the hack front sights and black rear sights put on my 43..I like the combination and don't miss the rear sights.

That's basically what I have...a set of Hackathorns with a .140 rear instead of .180. Perfect combo.

From the photos it looks like a good quick sight picture.

I put CAP sights on my 43. Wish I would've stuck with TFO's. Nothing wrong with the CAP's but I like the sight picture better with the TFO's.
I like your setup as well.

Nice setup,I have the ICE claw sights on my G43 which are a similar setup.
Rear tritium just slows you down,particularly when all of the lamps are the same color.

Yea, no kidding. I just googled those sights. They are very similar.

I put Trijicon HD Night Sights on mine
