My P229 40s were unreliable.


Never had a problem with mine.

I DO know they weren't siglight sights.

After professing my love for a bead/Shallow V sight, you think the XS sights are OK?

If the P225 rear sight projects forward over the slide a little it's an original Siglite.

I can't remember what they are stamped but I still think they are Trijicon or meprolite.

I think you should look into a dual color NS system. Some high speed .mil use it.

I'm not a fan of XS. I've had quite a lot of XS sighting equipment and think better kit exists.

Remember, I'm a guy that tests lots of gear. When I find something that works and works and works....I stay with it.

Maybe I should start a "Architect Approved Kit" thread.

That's why we are always pestering you for your thoughts on things. You HAVE BEEN THERE AND DONE THAT.

What specifically did you NOT like about the XS "Dot the I" sights?

They might be, but that wasn't OEM. Someone added them. Nothing wrong with this.

I'd rather have just a front dot. The post rear is slow for me. This could be because I've been shooting 3 dots for 20+ years.

XS big dot front sights WILL crack on the white area. Trust me. Don't bang your gun around.

I didn't care for Sig's non NS post dot of years past. It's just not fast (for me Anyway).

Oh yeah, they were added when Quintrall worked on the gun for me. Sorry, I forgot to say that. blush

I always had a difficult time getting POI-Elevation correct with post dot sights when firing under pressure. Three dots are an align, squeeze deal. Post dot is align, muzzle tilt deal.

Seconds count when Bubba is charging you with his broken crack pipe.
