What replacement sights for Glock Gen 5?

[jwfuhrman]

I use Haley Strategic Thirteen Sights on Glock I own now after running them for the last 2 years on my Lonewolf Glock. Picked up a Gen 5 17 and immediately got the HSP sights. No difference in POA/POI for me.

I like Ameriglo Hackathorns. Plain rear nice bright front post. Ameriglo makes great aftermarket Glock sights.

Gen 5s need taller front sights to maintain the same POI of previous gens. Dawson is selling specific gen 5 sights. Something to do with how they lock up differently.

Not my experience and I now own seven Gen 5 Glocks. And once again, if you are looking for some kind of super-dooper target/match grade handgun...the Glock ain't it. Want a handgun that puts rounds *effectively* on target? Glock all the way.

I went ahead and installed the steel sights from my gen 4 “summer special”. I cannot see any difference in height between the stock gen 5 sights and the “summer special” sights.

The stock plastic front sight was already getting beat up from a JM custom kydex IWB holster...

I don't know what you're trying to suggest, here.

I don't think he does either.

It's a pretty well accepted fact that Gen 5 9MMs need different sights than Gen 4 for a similar POA-POI relationship.

Or maybe Ameriglo just makes Gen 5 specifics sights for $hits and grins????

I think he was saying that he doesn’t care how accurate his sights are or what his zero is. That’s what I took from it.

Confused as well. I was going to respond but deleted it as it looked like he was “baiting”. I didnt see where anyone stated that the glock is match grade or capable of 1” groups at 50 or even 25yds, so i can only assume he created an argument to argue.

Has anyone put night sights on a Gen 5 26? I will be getting one soon, and I would like to put Heinie's on it. I saw they offer a Gen 5 specific model, so I think I should be ok.
