It's a damn shame they can't figure out how to use Fiber Optics and Tritum for them.. THAT would rule...

the person who designed these sites, is an XDtalk member. He also did the 20,000 round torture test people saw in that one gun magazine.

I agree about the tritium, but it looks like they'll have that covered too:

(from the website)--Due to its large size and brilliant yellow coloring, low light capabilities are greatly enhanced over standard sights. Due to the sight's size and configuration it is remarkably usable in low light. Night sighted versions are in development.

Very cool design--I'm looking forward to seeing them in person.

I think I'd hold out for the night sight versions. But none the less, they look like a good product.

Personally, I don't care for any type of tritium/whatever "inserts"...what goes in, eventually will fall out.......virtually everyone I know who has used some version of glow in the dark inserts has lost one, two, or three of their glow babies, and it gets downright pricey having to replace just one.

It looks pretty cool for these old eyes. Any idea what the street price is going to be on these things? I really like the idea.

SEVERAL SEVERAL months. Liebster, I believe is the proprietor of these sights and he announced them forever ago but the release date for them keeps getting pushed back. Hopefully we'll get to see these bad boys someday soon.

The sharp point on the the front sight seems like it will easily hang up on a holster when drawing. Then again I'm only going by the pictures on the website.
