I'm looking at picking up a Gen 5 Glock 19 non-MOS pistol. I already have a Gen 5 MOS 19 and a Gen 5 MOS 45. Both wear RMR's via FCD plates and Heinie MOS sights. I keep getting asked to teach beginners (friends, family, and extendeds mostly) and for that space I'd prefer to have an iron-sighted G19. Secondary role for this pistol would be for my wife's disposal if I'm out of town and/or she wishes to carry. She does not currently carry regularly. Final role would be if for some reason I ever wanted to specifically carry something without a dot.
Anyway, with all that in mind, I'm looking for sight recommendations. As I do a lot of 25yd shooting, I'm pretty particular about the sights being regulated to hit POA=POI with tips of blades. For this reason I consider the Dawson Adjustables; both for the ability to fine tune them to different loads as well as their Perfect Impact guarantee. However, with the potential for carry, those rears are pretty large and sharp. Also I think the simpler the better for a pistol of this kind. In the past I've had several sets of different Ameriglo sights on various Gen 5 Glocks to include a pair of 19's. I liked them and had figured out the height formula to get them to hit center, but discovered 2 flaws:
1. They are very low to the slide and therefore somewhat difficult to pick up on a draw stroke
2. I had an Ameriglo rear walk out of the dovetail in a Gabe class last September and since then I want a rear sight with a set-screw
Ideally the sights would have a tritium front, .125 wide with a high-viz ring ala Trijicon HD's with non-outlined tritium vials in the rear similar to what I had with this Ameriglo set:
Lack of outline isn't necessarily a deal-breaker though and neither is something like a "Straight Eight" sight picture with a single tritium vial under the rear sight notch. I would prefer to have the option for rear-sight manipulations. Currently I see options from Warren, Heinie, and Wilson Combat (the Vickers sights) that all tickle my funny bone. My primary concern is that they hit where I want them to.
My Heinie MOS sights are supposed to hit "directly behind the front sight." Well, that's not the case. At 25yds with a 6:00 hold on the black of a B8 they still hit up in the 8 ring. I brought Heinie's attention to it via email and while they did at least respond, it was nothing helpful.
Does anyone have experience they could share specifically with irons on Gen 5 Glocks and what is working for a good POA=POI?
thanks!
