So I bought a set of Xs f8 sights for my shield plus. I liked the sight picture enough and they were quick ship. So I grabbed em on sale.
Install was fairly smooth. Not much fitting. Once installed I realized how fat the front sight was. Not a huge fan but for inside 10 yards they worked good on the range. The dots are bright and I like the straight 8 style over the 3 dot.
I have been wearing it for work pretty religiously. Which sometimes is a 12-14hr shift. Night time mobile truck repair. So rain, sweat, dirt you name it.
Not even 3 full weeks in and the sights are rusting badly at the slide. What makes me really nervous is the underside that I had to file to fit. The coating is terrible on these and worse than some older 10-8 sights I have used by far.
Lately if it was a Glock I was running Ameriglo and anything else usually 10-8 or Trijicon.
Just a long winded heads up if you are looking at these at all.
