The AmeriGlo GL814 sight set delivers precision aiming capability for Glock pistols while maintaining full compatibility with red dot optics. This 2XL tall configuration provides the ideal sight picture when co-witnessing with popular micro red dots. Green tritium inserts ensure reliable target acquisition in all lighting conditions.
What Makes This Different
The GL814 features AmeriGlo's proprietary 2XL height profile, specifically engineered for absolute co-witness with mounted optics. Unlike standard height sights that create sight obstruction issues, this set maintains clean sight alignment whether using iron sights alone or as backup to electronic optics. The black outline surrounding each tritium vial enhances contrast definition in bright daylight conditions where tritium alone becomes less visible.
Key Features
- 2XL tall height profile for absolute co-witness with red dot optics
- Green tritium inserts rated for 12-year luminosity performance
- Black outline design maximizes contrast in varying light conditions
- Precision-machined steel construction with corrosion-resistant finish
- Compatible with most Glock models including Gen 3, 4, and 5 pistols
- Front sight measures 0.140" width for optimal sight picture
- Drop-in installation requires minimal gunsmith fitting
Field performance remains consistent across temperature extremes and extended shooting sessions. The tritium maintains visibility in low-light tactical scenarios while the black outline prevents sight washout during bright outdoor shooting. Competition shooters benefit from the crisp sight definition, while duty users appreciate the reliable backup capability when primary optics fail.
