ARegularPerson's Review of Troy Tritium Folding Front Sight - M4

I left another review for the DOA rear sight i bought as well. I should've listened to other reviews on here about these Troy Tritium iron sights but sometimes you sum others complaining up to their own experience. How could I go wrong with Troy I say? I just got a rear DOA sight, and a front M4 Tritium sight, and checked the tritium on both in a very controlled pitch black room. after 30 minutes of eyeball adjustment I began the test. I have 20/20 vision. It was a non stop struggle to even see anything. I knew in 1 second I wanted to return these. You can BARELY see any type of glow in total darkness. These would be fair price at $45/$50. they grab you with the DOA diopter apeture. Past that you're way overpaying. Sending them back. I also emailed Troy ahead of time to ask directly if they honor their own warranty on dead Tritium and they never emailed back. I told them if they can't answer I'm sending them back. no reply came. Turns out everyone was right but it was worse than they said. I am a fan of Troy I have other Troy products that are great. but these are absolutely ridiculous. Totally overpriced. Tritium rating 1 to 10 (10 being bright) Troy's can BARELY rank 1. it's actually HARD to see any hint of a glow. I cannot emphasize that enough.I wanted to keep these. but I wanted tritium more than a good diopter and the high price does not justify anything here. Basic $50 green Truglo tritium sights meanwhile are a pleasant 8/9 for glow, not too bright not too dim. These Troy sights are a total disappointment. I would even keep them had it been a tad more bright. I just can't believe this. I mean do I need to ramble on anymore?
Pros:
  • None
Cons:
  • DEAD ON ARRIVAL
  • tritium doesn't glow under no light
  • not useable in lowlight whatsoever
Best Used for:
  • daytime use only
Would Recommend: No
