Sights for Glock models

This collection contains iron sights for Glock pistols. Glock sights fall into four fit groups. Sights from one group do not fit another, so find your group first.

The four fit groups

• Standard models: G17, G19, G26, G34 and many other models. See Sights for Glock 17, Sights for Glock 19 and Sights for other Glock models.
• MOS variants: G17 MOS, G19 MOS and other MOS models. See Sights for Glock 17 MOS, Sights for Glock 19 MOS and Sights for other Glock MOS models.
• Slimline: G42, G43, G43X and G48. See Sights for Glock 43 & 43X and Sights for other Glock Slimline models.
• Slimline MOS: G43X MOS. See Sights for Glock 43X MOS.

Sights for standard models

Angry Bear low sights in fiber optic or tritium. Zendl and Angry Bear sights. LPA adjustable sights and adjustable rear sights. The LPA adjustable sights also fit MOS variants, but on MOS slides the rear sight may slightly overhang. Some sights state compatibility with Gen 3, Gen 4, Gen 5 and Gen 6.

Sights for MOS models

On a MOS pistol with a red dot, you need taller co-witness sights. They exist in blank, fiber optic and tritium, and as semi-adjustable co-witness sights from LPA. Low sights and standard-height sights are also available for MOS pistols without a red dot. These sights do not fit classic Glock models without MOS.

Sights for Slimline models

For the G42, G43, G43X and G48, there are low sights in blank or fiber optic and Night Fision co-witness sights with tritium. The co-witness sights for these models do not fit MOS variants. For the G43X MOS, there are co-witness sights in blank or tritium.

Low, standard or co-witness height

Low sights sit close to the slide. They suit a pistol without a red dot. Co-witness sights are taller, so you see them through the window of a red dot on the slide. If you plan to add a red dot later, choose co-witness sights now.

Front sights and tools

A single fiber optic front sight fits the standard models. Glock front sights are fixed with a screw. A front sight screwdriver from Angry Bear and spare front sight screws for Angry Bear sights are available.

Sight picture

The end of each title names the sight picture. Fiber optic is bright in daylight. Tritium glows in the dark. Luminescent dots charge in light and glow for a while. White dots and white lines give contrast without glowing. Blank sights have a plain grooved surface.

A title with "front sight" or "rear sight" means a single part. Most other sights are complete sets of front and rear sight.

Makers

LPA in Italy, Angry Bear and Night Fision in the USA, Zendl in the Czech Republic and Eemann Tech make the Glock sights from steel.

Installation

Most sights sit in a dovetail. You drift the old sight out and the new one in with a sight pusher or a punch. See Installation tools.

Frequently asked questions

Can I change the sights on my Glock at home?

Yes, with a sight pusher or a punch. Drift the old sight out of the dovetail and push the new one in. The Glock front sight is held by a screw from the inside of the slide, so you need a front sight screwdriver for it. If you do not have the tool, a gunsmith can do it for you. See Installation tools.

Which sights should I choose for my Glock?

It depends on how you shoot:

• You use a red dot: co-witness sights. They are tall enough to see through the red dot window.
• You shoot with iron sights only: low sights or standard sights.
• You want to zero for your ammunition or shoot competition: adjustable sights. You set windage and elevation with screws.
• You shoot in poor light: tritium. It glows in the dark without charging.
• You shoot in daylight, at the range or in competition: fiber optic.

Do G19 sights fit my G19 MOS?

Mostly not. MOS slides have their own sights. The LPA adjustable sights fit both, but on a MOS slide the rear sight can overhang slightly.

Which sights fit my G43X?

The Slimline sights for the G42, G43, G43X and G48. For the G43X MOS, take the Slimline MOS sights.
