Metallic Velocity from United States, CA Public Profile

Ok, so I got two sets for my XD(s) (plural not the XD-S)...U notch, white rear with green lamps, and U notch Black, with green lamps. The front sights both (orange) needed to be fitted on my service model and sub compact. A little bit of careful filing/emery cloth on the bottom did it. They are very bright but here’s something No one mentioned and I ended up liking the blackout with lamps better. The lamps on the black set are purposely smaller and therefore dimmer than the front sight, making picking up the front sight much faster in extreme low light. The whites are almost brighter than the orange front, I assume because the lamp carries a bit of glow into the white section since it’s a polymer injection (not painted), so I recommend IF you go with white back set, go white IN FRONT so they are at least even lighting. The carried light in the orange even makes the color appear a different green from the white rear (a bit of an optical concussion...lol) and slightly dimmer therefore. So there you have it it’s always up to user preference but I say if you want high speed nightsighs, these are great for the cost. Brighter than Trijicons a bit. But if you get white rear you may consider white front and I highly recommend the blackout with green lamps, or even the completely blackout rear with no lamps if you like that sort. I haven’t tried the green front and would like to, given the chance but I liked the visual aspect of the orange better (personal taste). These are les
