Byron's Review of Trijicon HD Walther P99/PPQ/PPQ M2 Heavy Duty Night Sight Set w/Yellow Front Outline
Although I have not been to the range yet, I am thrilled with these sights. For those that don't know, the Walther PPQ comes with very basic plastic 3 dot sights. My aging eyes could use some help in picking up the front sight so I decided to look into some new sights. I decided on these for several reasons. They are metal, have a larger shelf for one handed slide manipulation, are tritium so they glow in dark/dim areas, and probably most importantly they have a large front luminescent front sight that jumps out at you in any lit area as the rear sight just appears black. It is also a much larger dot than the stock sights, again an aid in picking up the front sight faster. The front sight is wider with the bigger dot so more of the target is obscured. This is not a concern of mine in a self defense firearm.
As a bonus the PPQ's sights are simple to change. The front sight gets removed with a tiny allen wrench and the new one goes in with loctite and a hex screw. You may need a special tool to install the front sight but I had something on hand that worked in my toolbox. It is the limited space you have around the new hex head that is the issue. The rear sight is crazy simple, just push down a detent (with small flathead screwdriver) under the windage screw and slide it off to the left. Move the screw from the old sight to the new one and slide it in while holding down the detent and it locks in place. Videos exist online showing how it is done.
