Reviews & Ratings for TruGlo Brite-Site TFX Tritium Night Sight set for CZ 75 — 29 reviews — Page 1

These barely Glo…. Wondering if they are defective. Only minimally better than the stock dayglo sights in my CZ.

My NC Star sight pusher came today so I was able to install sights on my CZ75 D Compact PCR with no problems in less than 15 minutes. It took longer to set up the pusher than to change the sights, very easy and perfect fit. Can’t wait to get to range. Big improvement over factory sights.
Pusher made it much easier and probably kept me from damaging sights while pushing them in.

I installed this set on my Tristar T120 by Canik. Driving the factory sights out took some determination, but a vise and custom hardwood punch did the trick. The truglo front sight needed no alteration and fit in the factory dovetailed channel well, but needed a good bit of force before the roll pin could be reinstalled. There's maybe .3mm of front sight hanging ahead of the slide, but the barrel protrudes more and it is hardly perceptible. The rear sight needed some filing to fit. I also took a little off the bottom of the dovetail of the sight using my flat granite slab and some 220 sandpaper. After the final fitting the sight was made snug in it's new home with the wooden dowel. The quality of the tritium is very good. The fiberoptic also works very well when there is an overhead light source. These are a huge improvement over the very basic sights that come with the T120. I think the quality of the truglo sights are fantastic and I have great confidence in them as this will be a home defense firearm and range toy. I highly recommend them. Patience with the install is key. Otherwise have a pro put them in.

The Meprolight tritium sights, on the SP-01 series, are the best stock sights on any handgun I've purchased. Ever. When I purchased the P-01 and Later, the SP-01 Phantom, it was a hard realization that CZ had taken a step down in the long distance aiming dept. The dots were extremely small and the "phosphorescent" strontium aluminate "glow-in-the-dark" sites were an abomination for those of us with aging eyesight. Day or Night! After looking into comparable sights, Truglo seemed the best option for replacing the stockers on my newly acquired Phantom.
The TFX series looked as good as the TFO's with a few added inprovements. I don't hose my firearms down with MEK's, so it may not make a difference if the fiberoptics are encased in acrylic or gorilla glass or whatever it is that seals them from the elements.
The sights, however, are as they are advertised. For my eyes, the tritium enhancement, through the fiberoptics, is great. The collimation of light during the day is exceptionally bright. Sight picture is excellent regardless of light or lack therof.
I had the sights installed by our local gunsmith, and subsequently zero'd for windage. the result?... a print that bettered the factory range print. Aim and point of impact were one.
Now, there is a small issue which may or may not affect your choice in purchasing these...

After installation, (at least on the CZ75 SP-01 PHANTOM) the sights have a gap between their fiberoptic overhang and the slide. Bothe front and rear. Does...

For the individual who stated the cons outnumber the benefits, I’m not sure we are reviewing the same product. These are great combat sights. I ordered these because you did not have to drill the front sight for installation on the CZ75B. I have “other” tritium sights installed on my work pistols as well as several other personal weapons. In zero light, these are comparable. Very bright under daylight conditions. Easy and quick to acquire. Definitely a good combat sight but you’ll be trading off on precision as compared to the smaller stock sights. If you don’t have a sight pusher, be patient when fitting the rear sight. Take your time. Front sight went in easy. Minimal fitting.

Purchased these for my CZ 75 compact to replace the poor factory sights. The install was easy with the correct tools. Minimal sanding was required on the front sight and the rear sight required no sanding and went in smoothly with a sight pusher. I have always preferred night sights but with these you get the best of both worlds good night and day use. Maybe a tad dimmer in pitch dark than other night sights I own likely because the tritium is behind the fiber optic tube as others have said but you can not tell much difference they are plenty bright but in the daytime there is a huge difference with these. I hope they hold up well because I love these sights and plan to order more. Found the best price at Optics Planet

The craftsmanship, packaging and performance are all top-notch. Sights were easy to install with the right tools! They provide excellent viewing angle at any light condition. Day or night fast target acquisition is guaranteed.

TruGlo really knocked it out of the park with these sights. I recently put a set of these sights on a 1911 pistol, I liked them so much that I also put them on a CZ 75 P-01, PCR and compact. the front sights all went in smooth with no altercation a very small amount of sanding was required for the rear sights in order to tap them in snug on two of my pistols. I am very happy with the quality and appearance of this particular sight.

Seriously, first time on the range with these sights, my groups instantly tightened up. These are not an easy install however. They fit extremely tight. Do it slow, polish off tiny bits of the dovetail on the sights; bottom at first, then front cut. I'd also suggest putting them in the freezer for a while to shrink them up a micron or two prior to final install. Enjoy!

These sights work fine out in the sun. But, indoors where my range is, they don’t illuminate at all. In the dark. The tritium glows weakly. Absolutely no illumination indoors. Last but not least, the front of the rear sight is sharp and makes it more difficult to rack my CZ slide. Poorly designed.
