Once I found instructions on the web about how to remove the rear Walther sight by depressing the plunger these sights were a breeze to install.

These sights work great. The green / green glows perfectly, yet are still easy to use during the day due to the white rim around each gas lamp. Only trouble is to install the front sight, you need a rather small 1/20" hex wrench to remove factory sight, and a 3/16" driver to install the new sight. Other than that, works perfectly.

Clear sight picture during the day & highly visible at night plus my 155gr Gold Dots print exactly to POA at 15yds. You wont find a better sight night or otherwise for the PPQ

My p99 is my night stand gun. Hence, why I got night sights for it. In the dark the tritium lamps light up the sights beautifully. At the range, in the light, the white outlines facilitate fast sight acquisition. The only negative thing I have to say about this product is that on my pistol the lip at the bottom of the rear sight is too small to fit snugly in the slot milled in the slide of my P99. This causes the rear sights sit at a slight angle because of the sprung rear sight detent on the P99. I don't notice any accuracy loss as a result, but if you press down on the rear sight there is some play in the fit.

I ordered this for my P99 and it's a huge improvement over the stock sights. Easy setup, installation can be tricky. I advise anyone installing this to be careful of the tiny spring that holds the screw adjustment for the sight. I had my spring fire up into the ceiling, luckily found it a few feet away. My groupings are great, and on my nightstand I can see exactly where they are in pitch black. My shots at the range are better than before, but I just wish the air gap between the rear and front sight was more snug.

Pros:  Installation was a snap. I really like the fact that the Tritium is surrounded by aluminum; as apposed to paint like the competitions. Seams to me that it would be more durable.
Cons:  None
Would recommend:  yes

That's the fifth time I mounted Trijicon on my guns. So far, no problems, so, I consider it a good quality for the money paid.
