hey guys have you seen any of these that fit the M&P. I think its the best of both worlds had one on my front sight of my sig equinox and loved it. Helped during the day and was way bright at night. I would like to do rear and front with them if possible what are your thoughts on them and do you know where to get some for the M&P? thanks

I used the tritium/FO sight on a SIG for many months.



(1) It is an extremely wide front sight. This makes getting a good sight picture more difficult.



(2) There is no way to replace the fiber optic tube as it gets dirty, scratched, etc. (this was a requirement from NRC, actually, to prevent people from getting access to the nuclear material in the tritium capsule) By 10,000 rounds my fiber optic rod was so disfigured that it was far too dim for anything useful.



It's a great concept, but so far the technology doesn't seem up to the task.
