Thinking of getting nite sights for the Glock 29. I have them on my 1911, they work fine but do not give a very good sight picture in daylight, not much of a white dot. The factory plastic glock sights are a lot easier to see in daylight. So, leaning towards the XS Big Dots for better daytime sight picture. Since they are an express type sight I am not sure how it may afffect shooting at longer distances.
Anyone with experience with these sights, please share your thoughts, or if someone has other ideas let me know.

I put the xs sights on my g29. I love them. 40-50 yd. steel plate hits are no problem.

I really like my TruGLo sights. Tritium for noight and fiber optic for day. Very bright under all conditions.

I have been really looking at these truglo tfo's and have seen a ton of back and forth about the front sight issue. I think they may be the best for my older eyes as the hi viz light tubes really helped out with my 10/22.
