    Iron recommendations

    I *know* I've seen the information here before but I can't find it so pardon the new thread.

    I want simple irons for a Glock 45 with the Holosun 507, probably just black/black. I'd prefer lower 1/3 cowitness, and my current duty ammo is 124gr +P if that matters in the slightest. Recommendations for irons?
    Sorta around sometimes for some of your shitty mod needs.

    I don't think you can go wrong with Dawson Charger at whatever height you like.

    10-8 makes quality sights: 10-8 Glock sights

    Their extra tall is all black.

    Check out AngryBearArmsinc sights. I had them put on a recent 34 build by Battle Ready Arms (they suggested using them). Installed black on black and I'm running a 507c . Quality sights that are solid, simple and reasonably priced.

    Ameriglo GL-429 if it’s for an MOS. Would obviously sit higher on a non-MOS.

    Here is the thread you were looking for.

    FWIW I went with the Amerglo GL-470 on my 19.5MOS with CHPWS V4 plate and 507Cv2

    I much prefer the Dawson's on my G45to the Ameriglos on my G19's. I'll be buying Dawson's for my MOS guns from now on. Serrated rear, set screw, better sight picture.

    I just got a set of these in the mail:
    https://www.nightfision.com/product/...ng-color=Blank

    Whey were doing a Black Friday special and I got them for something like 30% off so $70 shipped and I figured it was worth a go. With a chpws plate and the RMR on the gun the sights are just barely visible in the RMR window which is for me ideal as I can ignore them unless I end up needing them. If I line my eyes up with the sight the front sight is only like half way visible which is for me in this application ideal. I did strip the set screw they had in the rear sight but I was able to get it out and I think they will send me another, not that I'm at all worried about the rear sight moving.

    I have Ameriglo 429s on all three of my current Glock MOS guns. This includes:
    17/C&H Plate/SRO
    45/C&H Plate/509T
    19/Forward Controls Design plate/RMR.

    I’m toying with trying a fiber optic front because after using the dot for a long time I’m having real trouble running black/black irons at any decent speed/urgency, especially when running a “dot” gun.

    Upon the recommendation of Hilton Yam @ 10-8 I started using front green fiber and black rear.
    It's actually a very useful and intuitive setup for dot acquisition and as a reference point.
    If I see green upon draw, I automatically know that that I'm pointing too high and I can steer my muzzle downward using the green fiber as a guideline.
