Reviews & Ratings for Meprolight TRU-DOT Self Illuminated AR-15 Rifle Night Sights — 29 reviews — Page 1

I bought the mepro true dot sight set. I installed the mepro front sight pin carefully onto a Troy fixed front sight, using a front sight tool. I took it to the range to sight it in and fired 10 rounds. When I looked at the target sheet, I noticed that the bullet holes were all extremely low, which seemed strange to me. When I inspected the front sight, I noticed that the upper part of the front sight pin that spins and holds the tritium had elevated about an eighth of an inch up off the rest of the front sight pin. When I touched the top of the front side pin, it slid back down. I discovered that it slides up and down and is therefore defective. I contacted optics planet and they referred me to mepro. Mepro took my information and then completely ignored me, despite a further email asking what the problem was. Mepro does not back up their warranty for manufacturing defects. I will never buy another mepro product ever again.

The tritium tubes were on the smaller size as to not overwhelm the longer sight vs pistol. It didn't fit my Midwest Industries "+" alignment. Needs a "x" alignment to keep tritium dot to front. Cheaper to get trijicon post rather than new buis.

Should of bought just the front sight, at a lot less cost. The illumination of the four dots on the rear sight are just about non-existent.
Also, the manufacturer should include a front sight tool. None of mine even fit over the blade. Since the upper part of the sight rotates independently of the of the base, it makes installation/adjustment more difficult than necessary.

A good set of night sights. Easy to install but the rear aperture is installed backwards compared to a normal sight. Something to keep in mind, the large peep sight is the first one on this.

These sights are excellent, installation was very simple.They work better than expected.Tjese sights are far more effective than the two dot type

Excellent sights,work better than hoped for, installation was not to hard.The four dot version is definitely the way to go iny opinion

They are excellent sights at night,sharp contrast and very bright.They were a good price,shipping was slow ,but I am happy with the product

Repeat of title, why they sent this out to a customer isbeyond me.

The rear aperture glow is WAY better than the Trijicon model. The Trijicon rear apature does not glow at all, none, zero. This sight is PERFECT. I also like the 4-dot design a lot. I have zero compliments and zero regrets. Good product!

Good quality very bright tritium. Really like having the 4 dot ring on the rear sight. A pain to install if you don't have an ar front sight tool. It is not compatible with Troy fixed rear sight. Learned the hard way :/
