I don have them on any SA gun that I own, but I do have a set on my glock 29. I really like them for fast target line up. They glow really well at night as well.

Do you have any issues with them hanging in the holster, etc. Looks like a good defense sight for the carry pistol.

I had James install a set on my XDS.
LOVE them.
Super fast to put on target and follow up shots are right there.
I have been doing most of my shots at 7-12 yards.
POA is dead on.

Can you snap some pics to show how they look on the XDs?

Not the best pics, but the sights are awsome.

I've got 'em on a Glock 23 and really like them!! Not so great (for me) for marksmanship / bullseye shooting, but for really fast pick up on the front sight and self defense scenerios.... LOVE THEM!

Especially at night, the huge front sight is very easy to see fast.

Will I do them again? Not sure, there are a few other ideas out there (you can see them on James' sight) that look cool and seem to have some more modern ideas for fast sight acquisition. <<------ that takes nothing away from how much I do like the XS 24/7 set up.

Thanks for the pics KentB. These sights might be the ticket for a CC defense pistol.

Yep, that’s why I had them installed.
My old eyes can use all the help I can get.
The XDS is my CCW and I carry it daily.
These sights are spot on from muzzle to 21 feet.
