XD Bitone Sight Question

You all have talked me into buying a Service model xd-9. I am going for the bitone, but it appears that only one type of sight is available for it. Does anyone know why the trijicon sights are not an option for the bitone xd's, yet they are optional on the blued xd's???

Ive already done so. You cant get one unless you go through the custom shop. My advice? Buy a blued with trijicon then get the slide refinished by Tripp Research in "Satin Chrome" or by your local gunsmith with the grey/silver finish of your choice.

I put Williams Firesights on my Bi-tone, and it never even crossed my mind that they didn't match the slide. I'll have to go look now. The sights are fantastic though. Especially for $38 bucks.

I've got the Truglo TFO's on my XD9SC, they work great day or night. Where are these $38 Williams sights at?

They were strategically placed about the cash register at the gun store I use. Is that not a normal price for Fireshights? Should I go buy the others and put them on EBay?
