Larry D from United States, TX Public Profile

They're nice and bright, but that's the only good thing I can say about them. Since installing these sights, the gun is shooting roughly 5 inches high at 7 yards. In comparing the new sights to the original sights, the Meprolight front sight is shorter and the Meprolight rear sight is taller. The box insert that came with the sights I received is labeled as being for "P99, PPQ, PPQ 9/40" and marked with ML-18801, which is the correct model number according to the Meprolight web site. I assume it's unlikely I received the wrong sights as they fit on the gun, and I can find no information online indicating my generation of P99 had different height sights, but...

I contacted Meprolight and was told "It is possible there was an issue with the sights" and that they could be replaced under warranty. First I had to complete a 2 page RMA request that was sent to me in the form of a Word document... yes, a Word doc, in 2018. I sent it back the next day. I was then told "Once we get it back, we process the info in it (it takes a bit of time) and then you will get an RMA number which you will print on the outside of the package when you return the sights." It's been over 2 weeks now and I've heard nothing.

Based on my experience, I don't see how I could ever recommend dealing with Meprolight or any of their products.
