Night Sights

I'm close to getting my first gun and now I'm debating should I get the night sights or not. What is your opinion? Do you feel they are a must have or not?

More info...

I think we need more info to accurately vote. What will be the primary purpose of this weapon? CCW, HD, Range plinker?

I have TruGlo TFOs on all my XDs. They make a huge difference IMO.

It will be CCW, range plinker and maybe competition if I get that good. What's HD? The only HD I know is Harley Davidson.............and the guns I'm looking at are XD9 and XDM.

HD= Home Defense.
I have TFO's on my HS2000 and on one of my 1911's...the one that gets the most use at the ranch!...they are great for aging eyes to make quicker sight acquisition!

The Kimber on my nightstand has tritium night sights, and the EMP on my hip has them too. Remember bad guys come out at night!

In fact, that is their "prime time."
