Glock 10-8 Rear Sight Question

[Robb Jensen]

The Warren rear sight is the same height IIRC as a Heinie rear sight. Thus a stock Trijicon front will be too short, this would cause extremely high impacts as the range increases.

Just get a whole set of Warren sights........You won't be disappointed. Scott calls these the tritium 'mix' (plain rear, tritium front) and they're cheaper than Trijicons.

Ideally I prefer a plain black rear sight with no distracting serrations and a serrated black front (competition gun) or a night sight front (defensive/carry gun).
I'm actually moving away from fiber fronts for competition and shooting black sights just as fast with more accuracy since they allow me to 'see what I need to see'.

Will the Warren plain rear and tritium front give a 6 o'clock hold?

Mine did not... I need to change the front sight to do so

If by "plain" you mean standard height, no it will not. It will cause you to shoot about 8 inches high at 5 yards if you try to use a "standard" height front sight with a "tall" style rear sight. (Heinie, 10-8, Warren)

I use 10-8 sights on my 21SF and Heinie slant pros on my duty 21.

Both are combat balck sights. I don't use tritium sights and never have believed in them.

In the Heinies I have a 215 front and 125 rear. Shoots 4-6 inches high at 25 yds.

In the 10-8 I have a 235 front and 125 rear. Shoots +/- 1 inch high or low off hand at 25 yds.

I like the 10-8's for speed and they are great 25 and in working the timer. I pick them up very fast.

I haven't tried the Warren sights but hear nothing but good things about them.

Plain as in what is described here.

Gents - I need a rear sight for my new (new to me) 2nd gen G19 and I was looking at the 10-8 rear sights. I'll be using a standard Trijicon front sight and I'm not sure if I need a .140" or a .125" rear sight. Any ideas?

In addition, if someone has another suggestion like a Warren Tactical rear sight I'm all ears.

ETA: I should also note that this G19 will primarily be used for CCW

The .125" and .140" measurement are the width of the rear sight notch. This is a personal preference thing and will not change the vertical point of impact of the round (appreciably).

If you are a bit older or you're focally challenged (eyes are not what they used to be) the .140 allows bigger light bars on the sides of the front sight and thus a bit more speed. This comes at the expense of a bit of precision at longer distances.

The .125" is the standard notch. If your eyes are still sharp or you want the utmost in precision in you sight alignment this is the way to go.
