Truglo Tritium/Fiber Optic Brite Sight

by Truglo

Product Description

The TruGlo® TFO Brite Site Series uses a patented combination of Tritium and fiberoptic technologies. The Tritium maintains the brightness level of the sight in low-light (or no light) conditions. That means you can see your sight even in complete darkness, with perfect transition through all lighting conditions. Tritium does not need batteries and does not need to be charged with light -- it simply glows!

I recently upgraded the sights on my 4" XD 40 with the Truglo TFOs. They're a lot bigger than the original sights but it's a worthy upgrade IMO. I also considered the Trijicons for it's size but I like the brightness of the TFOs in the dark better compared to the Trijicon. The TFOs are very effective in low to extremely low light conditions and will make acquiring your target much easier. The fiber optic enhances its visibility under any light or outdoors. The combination of the Tritium and Fiber Optics definitely is a winner! I found the size a bit big at first but took me no time to appreciate the looks of it on my XD. Check out the images I uploaded and decide for yourself. Hopefully, the brightness last a lifetime. But for now, I highly recommend it!

A word of advise: Look for a reputable gunsmith to install these for you. Save yourself some headache and dish out the $30 to get them professionally installed. You'll be glad you did!

I got these sights to augment my Springfield XDM 9. I removed my old sights using a vice, brass and steel punch and a hammer. The factory front sight was difficult to remove. I was able to get it to break loose once I start pounding on the dovetail and the blade simultaneously. It took quite a lot of force. I would consider either buying an MGW tool next time or taking it to a gunsmith.

The new sights are great. As far as I can tell they are still sighted for point of aim but its a little harder to see the front blade, so not a great target shooting sight. However what I would expect out of a sight such as this is quick target acquisition in both night and day conditions and the bright dots deliver in all environments. Unfortunately the instructions that come with the sights feel like somewhat of an afterthought. Other than that its an excellent product. Very bright at night.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truglo's on my handgun = second best investment ever, December 9, 2011

If you have ever considered keeping a handgun in your house for any sort of defensive purpose, then there are few (if any)reasons to not invest in some sort of night sights. Given the fact that almost all firearms training and practice is done in well lit situations, any tool you can use to up your game is worth the cost. So long as you can make out the faintest of silhouettes, you can still sight in on target perfectly with these. Being able to see exactly where your handgun is pointed, not just "guessing" based on muscle memory alone makes such an enormous difference. Of all the firearms in my household, the only ones kept well stashed are the ones with these installed.
