VP9 Match Sights
Added these to my VP9 Match. They work great to co witness with the Holosun 507comp. Highly recommended.

Well priced HK suppressor height sights for the price, but may need a little bit of fitting
I was looking for some tall night sights to co-witness on my Holoson 407k. The XS Sights are probably the best priced on the market. I've probably done half a dozen sight installs for various Glock pistols, but this was my first experience trying an HK.
I did the install using an ATG pistol sight pusher. I made my zero marks on the slide using the stock sights and a white oil market. Getting the stock rear and front sights off the gun was easy.
Next I installed the front sight, and moved it until the orange dot was exactly above my white mark I made on the slide. It went on very easy.
The rear sight was a bit tougher. When I was pushing the sight onto the slide I noticed a lot of resistance, so I looked very closely under my jeweler loupe and I could see a very small amount of material was being sheered off the back of the rear sight fitting. So I pushed the sight off and using my dremel, I began to polish the rear side of the fitting, removing very little material, mostly just smoothing it out.
I tried pushing the sight onto the slide again, and this time it went on with much less force needed, and still was a very snug fit. Overall I'm very satisfied with the install, but keep in mind, don't force it. If you feel more resistance than you're used to, take a close look and see if you may need to polish the rear sight fitting a little bit before install.
