What did the "pump-you-up" guys on SNL say, "hear me now, and listen to me later..." i have considered but am pretty comfy with the glock rear like the "U" sight in the rear plus the 34 is adjustable. i am not used to shooting in good lighting, mostly indoor and find it hard to focus on the front sight. shot my buds 1911 with FO sight and found it easier to focus but i am open to anything that works, fire some options at me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBuzzard Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Ahh .............. the difficult choice of sights. I spent about one week with stock sights on the G34. Then I went to the biggest honken HiViz fiber I could get on the front. After a while I felt that HiViz fiber was too blinding bright, so I downsized to a dawson mild mannered fiber. Several years later, I concluded that the basic square, black, bold, front sight is best for me.......Sevigny's. It helps me if I look for the details in serations of the front sight on those difficult shots......fiber makes this a bit more difficult. Its sort of a personal journey everyone makes.

open17 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 The $20 or so Hi-Viz that just about everybody carries works fine. Had one on a 35 for a while. Eventually found out that I shot better with black sights, and switched to Sevigny's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
