Another sights question. I've noticed that my Trijicon nights on my Gen 3 Glock 26, bought close to when the 26's were released - have significantly faded. Searching p-f, found more suggestions for Ameriglo as compared to Triji. The current configuration look more visible than my old three dots.
Thoughts?
I run ameriglos on my 26s. .180” front is drive the dot for me with 124 gr ammo with a .256” rear. You have to get slimline sights from ameriglo to get that set up but they’re fine.
I have Glock "BOLD" sights on my 5th gen G26. They have a bright orange outline and I have been very satisfied with them. Good for lit environments-the orange front stands out to my eyes-and in low light, the tritium is easily picked up.
I have the Bolds as well on my Gen5 G26. I do think the HDs on my Gen 2.5 stand out better in the dark, but my buddy @Jason M said that he found less reflection off the front sight on the Bolds...which can be a factor under various lighting conditions...
So, take that into consideration.
As mentioned above: for 124 gr, .165 front/.256 rear will hit to the top of the post, or .180 front if you like using the dot. I put Ameriglos on all my Glocks.
Check out Night Fision.
Apologies-forgot to mention the setup I have is a “drive the dot”…Quote:

At this point my favorite Glock sights are Night Fision with an orange ring around the front insert, black rings around the rear inserts, and a square notch rear.
If going with Trijicon, I have always liked the Bright & Tough sights.
I've been a long time fan of Ameriglo, may favorite being the spartan operator line. Orange outline on the front sight with no out line on the rear tritium.
