TFX PRO Handgun Sight

Note these are my first aftermarket sights, but I did a lot of research and analysis before buying and felt the TFX Pro was the best option. Your needs may lead to a different choice. Regarding installation, I completed the install on my S&W Shield myself. It took about an hour because getting the old sights off can be a bit of an experience and effort, but the new sights went on more easily, and I also did some fine tuning to get the sights centered. Much of the time was being careful because I was concerned all the pressure to push the sights off and on was going to deform or break the sights, but nope not at all. I did rate the install as 5 stars, but that doesn't mean it's easy. It's just easier than the stock sights and I didn't have any hang-ups during the install. Again, you just need to make sure you still the sights centered correctly. ADVICE 1: Get a good sight pusher. Using the hammer and punch was killing my punches and the sights wouldn't even budge. I could have gone harder but I didn't want to risk marring the slide, so the pusher proved to be much better. Note that I found it useful to clamp the pusher in a vise so it was more stable and less prone to slipping out of my hands. ADVICE 2: Before installing the new sights, use a sharp pencil to mark the center of the top of the slide while the old sights are in place. It will make it easier to center the new sights. I tried to use calipers to measure the center, but it was hard to get a good or consistent purchase when measuring, so I didn't get the accuracy I was looking for. I wish I had marked it. Or having a reputable gunsmith install the sights may be the easier way to go, just make sure they care enough to center the sights correctly. ADVICE 3: Apply a light coat of oil into the dove cuts with a swab so the new sights go on more easily. ADVICE 4: Many pistols have a set screw on the rear sight to ensure it doesn't move. You will need blue thread locker on the set screw so it doesn't come loose. So after the install, I just practiced some draw and and target acquisition. I literally could see an improvement after like 6 draws. It's really easy to get used to, and it's really easy see whether the dots aligned correctly, especially with the orange circle front sight. I wish I bought these a long time ago. I was concerned about the tritium/fiber being too bright when in the dark, but not the case at all. They are low key enough that if you needed to hide yourself, they wouldn't show, but have good brightness to still be plenty visible. I'll still have to try it in mixed lighting to see if the green dots are still easy to make out, not sure. I really liked the rear sight having a ledge that I could use for one-handed racking. It's also useful for my friend, where she doesn't have a lot of grip strength to rack the slide, so having the ledge makes her life easier as well. That's about it. Well worth the price and they look great. Now I'm going to buy more for my other pistols. Enjoy.

4 years later and these still look brand new. Love these sights and throw them on all my pistols.

I bought these for my G43 because I wanted something I could see in low/no light conditions as well as mid day at the range. I wanted a high visibility, no maintenance, sight for my ccw that worked. These work much better than I'd hope for. The orange ring around the front green sight is perfect for fast sighting in the light. The green glow in the dark is just right. No straining your eyes. Amazing how these work so well across the available light spectrum. If there's a "worst" time to see them, it'd be at dusk when your eyes are still adjusting to the lowering light levels. The fiber optics pick up a lot of light while it's available, but until your eyes adjust to the darkening environment, the sights appear dim, but still visible. Once adjusted the glow off of the sights looks bright. I spun my gun around, unloaded of course, in the dark and was surprised that I couldn't see any glow off of the sights in the dark from the business end. Installing these was a breeze. I used the Truglo front sight tool for the front sight with zero problems. Quick and easy. For the rear I used the Universal Sight Tool Pusher from Sighttool (on eBay, a very well made tool). Quick and easy. I secured both the front and the rear sight screws with blue Locktite 242. These sights are significantly longer than the stock G43 Sights, but only slightly taller. I have a N82 Pro Tandem IWB holster and was a bit concerned that these sights might make contact when drawing or holstering, but there was enough of room. No noticeable difference from the stock sights. I couldn't be happier with the look of these and the function. The one other thing I'd like to point out is the rear sight being angled. At first I didn't think this was an option that could be of much value to me, but after the installation, I really like the fact that you can, in a pinch, jamb the angled part of the rear sight against your belt or a table edge, or what ever is available, and push your gun downward to load it one handed. This is a well though out and we'll built product. Truglo nailed this.

Great quality product. The fit was too tight for my heavy duty sight pusher though. Better to tight than too loose. It was an easy fix with a large sharping stone.

These are great sites. I had no issues installing with an MGW Site Pro. They work well for both daytime with fiber optic and nighttime with tritium. The reason for the 4 stars is the Truglo Tritium Pro (no fiber optics) version is NOTICEABLY brighter (2x I would guess). I have multiple of both, and the brightness is very consistent on both "models" of sites. If you are not married to the idea of glow in the daytime fiber optics, DEFINITELY save the 40 bucks and get the Truglo Tritium Pro instead (they are also much smaller).

These worked great on a PCR. Elevation is perfect (POI with combat sight alignment) at 10 and 25yrd. Just like factory. I centered the rear sight in the slide and it was also spot on and did not need adjustment. The Front sight pin is a little loose (can insert without a punch), which is I guess what happens when the front sight is shipped "pre-drilled". Easy to install, but won't be perfect. I loctited the pin and put some on the front sight base too just in case the pin falls out some day. The sight itself was nice and snug, I didn't have to do any fitting and the fit was perfect. Same for the rear sight. Overall I'm very happy with the sights for a defensive / carry pistol. I'm over 40 and my eyes are a little less tired after a range session so the sights are working for me. The front sight is too big for target shooting as it completely covers the target though if that is what you are looking for. The "Gap" left in front of the rear sight on a PCR I don't even notice anymore, it's not as ugly as I would have thought. The tritium itself seems a little less bright than my factory Springfield EMP that is 6 or 7 years old, but is visible enough in the dark to do the job. I would buy this again

Disclaimer: I have TRUGLO red dots that I am not happy with, so I'm not a fan boy for TRUGLO. I just spent 4 days running a CZ75D PCR with TFX Pros at a MAG40 session. This required handling the weapon in light conditions that ranged from bright sunshine to overcast to dusk-dark to pitch dark in a hotel room. On the first range day, in bright sunshine, the TFX Pros were incredibly bright. So bright, in fact, that under the stress of timed fire with multiple reloads the green fiber optic front sight was always immediately re-acquired without me even noticing the orange ring. As the day progressed, we went deep into dusky darkness to the point that flashlights were required to pack the range bags when we finished. As the range became increasingly dark the TFX Pros became increasingly bright. The performance of these sights in low-light was fantastic and I remember congratulating myself on having installed them as we continued to run drills in the gathering darkness after sunset. Later in the week we found ourselves running drills as a cold front approached, creating rapid variations in light quality on the range. Regardless of the light conditions, TFX Pros adjusted for the conditions such that my sight picture, in terms of optic sight illumination and visibility, was always the same. Throughout the week, after hours in a hotel room that was unusually dark, the sights on my PCR were so bright I could literally see them from from across the room, even before my night vision adjusted after turning out the lights - and we were staying in a suite. I remember all these things because time and again throughout the week I remarked to myself several times my astonishment at the quality of these sights. So, clearly, my experience with the TFX Pros is outstanding. They are fantastic fiber optic sights, and their performance as night sights in low light and total darkness is fabulous. The proof is in the pudding. My wife, who is pretty new to shooting, passed the Q on her first try despite all the nerves and anxiety - and the fact she is cross-eye dominant - using a PCR outfitted with TFX Pros.

Fits great on my g19. Very bright day or night.

Nicer sights

Amazing sights. Had to modify the rear sight by filing the dovetale to install on my SP-01 Shadow. So be prepared to have it modified by a gun Smith if you own this module. Also do not attempt to install without a quality sight pusher, it will void your warranty if you already haven't done so by filing them to fit your SP-01 Shadow.

Montage Passt, leuchtet im Dunkeln, macht man nix verkehrt. Der Preis ist aber awesome!!! Vergleicht man eine LPA Visierung mit Schräubchen und beweglichen Teilen, viel aufwendiger, kostet aber fast nur ein Drittel. Habe das hier genommen, weil es flach ist und in einen Anschlagschaft rein musste. Nix anderes wollte passen. Visierbild ist halt für Combat / Home Defense usw. Wer Präzi will, nimmt LPA

Best sights I’ve ever had. This is not my first, I actually have these installed in most of my pistols. Money very well spend

Perfect! bright easy to see sights in any lighting condition!!
