If you've got a BIG target (mid-section of a human) you'll surely hit it. Sweeping a house at night. Sure! 100% pitch black dark? Yes, you'll see the sights no problem.
After we talked about it on here I did some further testing with the XS sights pictured here.
Unless it's dark enough you can't identify your target you'll never know the tritium is doing anything. What if your neighbor came over to tell you he has an emergency and needs your help? You'll gun him down. Did your kid get up for a midnight snack and trip on something? You'll gun them down. Sasquatch came by to barrow some Jack Links beef jerky? You just gunned him down! My point is what good are the sights if you haven't really got a clue what your shooting?
I've practiced target shooting with mine a good bit. VERY slow process as I'm doing a lot of guessing if the bull's eye is perfectly at the 12 O'clock position on the big white ball (the tritium is just a little useless dot in the middle of the ball).
You decide. Personally I love the fiber optics, and have put them on all kinds of guns now. Your experience may be different.
Anybody wanna cheap set of XS's for a Glock? I just haven't gotten around to replacing them yet as this gun is a safe queen right now.
