Fiber Optic
Some Glock slides are thinner at the front sight hole, and the sight's mounting post may protrude.  This causes the set screw to tighten against the sight instead of the slide.  To correct this, file some material off the bottom of the post (indicated in silver) so that the post sits below flush.

Description

Precision CNC machined from hardened 4140 tool steel and finished in black QPQ salt bath nitrocarburizing (aka Melonite, same as the Glock slide).

  • Fits: ALL Glock models, all calibers, all frame sizes, all slide sizes.
    • Fiber optic (.060" rod with .075" diameter counterbore on 40lpi serrated blade face for flared bulb).
    • Compatible with .250" blade height rear sights.  NOT compatible with Glock factory rear sights, fixed or adjustable, as they are shorter than .250" blade height.
  • Height: .215", .235" and .250"
    • ALL Glock models, regardless of size, caliber, or generation, most commonly use the .215" front.
    • Glock 34/35, 41, 17L, 24L most commonly uses the .235" front. Sights do not overhang slide cutout.
    • Glock 48 uses .250" front with our Glock MOS Standard Height Rear Sight.
    • The .235" front lowers impact approximately 2-3" at 25 yards relative to the .215" front.
    • The .250" front lowers impact approximately 3-5" at 25 yards relative to the .215" front.
    • Please note that different guns will vary in regards to point of impact, especially with differing shooter preference. These heights are recommendations, and we cannot guarantee point of impact due to variations in individual guns. Point of impact will vary by *individual gun* and not so much by generation.
  • Width: .125", .115"
    • Blade width is strictly personal preference.  Thinner fronts cover less of the target area and are preferred for speed.  Thicker blades like the .125" are preferred for improved accuracy and are our most popular.

All sights include set screw and one section each of red and green .060" fiber optic rods.

**INSTALL ONLY TO MAX TORQUE OF 6 INCH/LBS or else you may risk cracking the threaded post.

***Due to manufacturing tolerances by our fiber optic supplier, there may be slight variation in the diameter of the fiber optic rod. Use a razor blade or X-Acto knife at 90 degrees to the rod and gently scrape the outside diameter a little bit and it will fit right in without any compromise to the function.

 

Read our article about sight selection.

    Warning: 0.215" isn't right for G45

    Contrary to the advice in the description advising a 0.215" front (and this is noted in a caveat about Gen 5 so it's not entirely a surprise) my G45 with the 0.250" rear sight impacts ~2.0-2.5" high at ~10 yards which turns out to suggest a ~0.250" height front would have been appropriate. As for the sight, it's pretty good quality. The fiber is a bit larger than I'd like, but that's subjective. It definitely seems durable.

    High Quality Sight

    With the green rod insert and paired with the .156" U notch rear sight, this fiber optic front sight is just right for me on my G19.

    awesome

    I put the .215 fiber optic on my Glock 21 along with the MOS standard height rear sight for deer hunting. The visibility and target acquisition is fantastic. I'll never put another brand of sight on my pistols again.

    Glock Front Sight Fiber Optic

    Well made, sturdy sight. Easy to install. A quality product.

    bargain

    It works but is not the brightest. Needs to be rather dark to see sight well. Using plain old Glock rear sight and if it had any color in it the front sight would wash out.

    Best Fiber Front Sight for Glock I've Tried

    Love the design and construction. I prefer the extra bar across the rod since its on my EDC G19. Installed another set on my Gen 5 G17 and they're perfect. Great sights!

    Fiber Optic - terrific sight

    Using the fiber optic front/all black rear on my 1911 and Glock. You can't beat this combination. Try them, you'll wish you had do so years ago.

    fast pich up

    I received the site on Saturday afternoon. I installed it and shot a competition on Sunday. The site was great! Fast to pick up, and easy to see. It comes with enough rod to try each color 2x or more if you are not sure what will work best for you. So simple to install and a great fit!!
