Night sights. Springfield vs Trijicon vs Heinie

13262 Views 12 Replies 8 Participants Last post by  lonyaeger
I will be sending my XD to Springfield for some custom work and have 3 options for night sights:

Springfield Custom 3 dot tritium
Trijicon 3 dot tritium
Heinie straight 8 slant pro or their 3 dot

I am leaning toward the Heinie straight 8's but have no experience with them nor the Springfield 3 dots (aren't the Springfield sights made by Trijicon anyway?)

Experiences? Likes, dislikes?

This will be for my daily CC.

I much prefer the Heinie straight 8's...

Do you have to send your firearm to Springfield to get the sights put on or can you go to any gun smith?

I apologize I missed your post. Maybe a little late now but you can go to any gunsmith or do it yourself with this handy little fella canebrake turned me on to:sight tool
Which sights did you go with? Thinking about doing the same with my XD. A pic would also be awesome!
HA!
why not? I guess I could've startted a whole new thread... but that's just lazy.

Just took a peek and the OP hasn't been on since before Christmas. It's always wise to check this on old threads...
oh, i didn't know I could check that, thanks for the info NGIB.
