Ameriglo FBI Glock Contract Sights

[LSP972]

You and 572 need to coordinate your stories, 'cause I am getting confused.

He's 5FIVE2; and we don't need to coordinate anything. In fact, we don't talk much these days, seeing as I haven't been to work in almost two months.

So... what has you confused? It might help you to know that we don't agree on everything.

WTF? He's not even on this thread! What ARE you confused about???

Ok...

So my caliper died on me, needs a battery, maybe I'll get it to tomorrow.

I used a Defoor front sight to compare the sizes.

So HD front vs FBI front:



Then Defoor sight vs FBI front:



Rears of HD and FBI for U-Notch Comparison:



...and a bunch of front sights to compare:

Two is one, one is none.

It appears to be the same width as a Defoor front which is supposed to be a .115. That's a decent option for folks that want a tritium front but in something other than the eyeball obscuring sized .125 or even larger HD sized front sights.

It's not the same size as the Defoor front. It is a smidgen wider, which is why i think its .125

Alright, so the front is 0.125". The HD rear is 0.169" and this new rear is wider. I'd say it's probably the Spartan rear width of 0.180". That's quite a bit of air around that front sight. Interested to hear your impressions of using such a setup.

Definitely worth a look - that's significantly thinner than the HD at .140.

Thinner is good, aim small miss small.

The bigger issue, as I've stated, with the HD's is that they aren't POA/POI at 25y point of ledge. That fucks me up all the time and I am just not as accurate with them as I am with any good set of Ameriglo's.

I have always loved the Sevigny Carry sights that Dawson makes. It's a 0.125 front with a 0.15 rear. The combo was easy on the eyes, fast up close and accurate at a distance. By far my favorite sights.
