Thx for all the great vids. would you think it be same for an xd sights?

[kickedintheballs2000]

Most likely but I can't be for sure cause I simply don't own a XD at the time.

I'm bout to order some Truglo TFO's. What should I go with for color combo. They got green, yellow, and red. I was thinking Green front and yellow rear. Or Green rear and Red front.

[kickedintheballs2000]

Its up to you man , I'm a big fan of green but I know many guys that love using red. I know sometimes at IDPA matchs they'll have red steel targets and all the guys with red sights start bitchin lol cause their sight will blend right into the target.

Can't say at all about the rear cause I never went with a different color rear sight.

Hi! I have a G17 gen 3 and the front sight have a little white plastic insert. ¿Can I put this sight without troubles in this model of GLOCK? Thanks a lot for to put your aknowlegment in the web and sorry about my poor English, I am argentine.

Do they need to be zeroed in after installing them? If so then how do you know if they're zeroed in and the gun won't shoot left/right or high/low?

when you screwed the wood into the table, how loose was the slide? loose enough to gently move it back and forth? or tight enough to where you have to give it to move it back and forth? has your methed ever failed on doing the sights? i'm a little nerves doing it your way. don't mind my 101 questions

The Rear sight on my M1911 keeps getting VERY loose. Any ideas? I went to the range twice and both times it worked its way free. I put a small drop of clear finger nail polish on the small Allen screw ,seemed tight until I shot it , but it still is finger loose again......:( HELP Thanks

How do I align the rear sight before glueing it down? Just eye ball it?

@DoDew

Yeah that's easy for me to do cuz I have the family inherited "vise grip" hands. If people like locking it down they may want to locktite the nut too, it ain't gonna hurt it that's for sure. Also Marine Locktite is more of a rubbery substance made for stuff on boats so if you have another firearm without Tenifer or Melonite, you can use that to help fight against rust build up underneath and around the sights.

When you take the front sight off with the pliers, it came off real easily. Did you have to loosen the screw first , in anyway, on the end under the slide?
