The fit and finish are great, works under very dark conditions, but definitely could be much better. The tritium is very small and barely visible until it gets almost too dark to use the site. These are freshly made, but are much darker than my mepro pistol night sites that are five years old. My other complaint is the retaining screw is shiny and is very distracting during daylight shooting because it’s centered on the left side of the site and is very close to the peep hole. Overall, the positive outweighs the negatives but as stated earlier, could’ve been much better.
Best Used for:
- Finding your mp5 sight in low light
Would recommend: Yes

Got these to go with a blitzkrieg component front sight. The tritium is small which is expected but they are rather dim even though these were factory fresh. They are no where near as bright as mepro tritium pistol sights. They are however just bright enough to help you find the rear peep in the last little bit of twilight. There is one other small annoyance, the screw that holds the sight in place is extremely close to the peep hole and is rather shiny. It’s very distracting in certain lighting conditions. Over all the pros out weigh the cons.
Pros:
- Easy to install
- well made
- makes sight easier to see in low light
Cons:
- cost
- Small & dim
- retaining screw very distracting
Best Used for:
- MP5 type firearms if you will be shooting in low light with iron sights
Would recommend: Yes

They're just supposed to be a point of reference when you're in the dark and if the target is in a lit area you can see the sight post. They do their job well. They are exactly what I was looking for. Just ordered the rear sights too because in very dark areas they are necessary. Great upgrade that keeps the stock profile.

The front sight is great and super bright. It's also not needed to have the back sights to utilize this efficiently. It's nice becase for a cheap cost you can get your gun's sight picture in the dark and not worry about 2 extra dots in the back shining in your eye with just the front sight

The sight is really nice, but not as bright as most pistol night sights. Also be warned that it will change your zero significantly so make sure to re zero accordingly Ben though it may look the same as the factory sight.

I bought this sight for the sp89 , parts are as advertised they glow bright, the post is not to wide and requires simple roll pin punch installation. Romovel of old sight was simple and Installation of meprolight product was very quick and easy . I would recommend for the mp5 series of weopens .

The usability is there for CQB only and it has to be very dark. The rear lamps are a bit smaller than expected. They went on my PTR91 very easily. I cant see the front sight in the dark unless I use the "1" marker on the drum or the open sight if you will. Don't expect to be blown away by the superior glow like you get on Mepro pistol sights. Nothing special.
Pros: Easy to install.
Cons: Lamps are extremely small and makes them seem dim.
Would recommend: No
