A title with "front sight" or "rear sight" means a single part. All other sights are sets of front and rear sight.
Which sights to choose
- You use a red dot: tall co-witness sights. You see them through the window of the optic.
- You shoot with iron sights only: low or standard-height sights. They sit close to the slide.
- You want to zero for your ammunition or shoot competition: adjustable sights. You set windage and elevation with screws.
- You want to keep your front sight: an adjustable rear sight alone.
- You only want a brighter front sight: a single front sight.
The sights in detail
- Co-witness sights from Angry Bear, LPA and Night Fision, in blank, fiber optic, luminescent dots, tritium and white dots. They are tall enough to be seen through a red dot mounted on the slide.
- Adjustable rear sights from LPA, in blank, white dots and white lines. You keep your front sight and set windage and elevation on the rear sight with screws.
- Adjustable sights from LPA and Zendl, in blank, fiber optic, luminescent dots, white dots and white lines. You set windage and elevation with screws, so you can zero them for your ammunition.
- Front sights from Eemann Tech and LPA, in fiber optic. You change only the front sight and keep the rear sight.
- Standard-height sights from Angry Bear, in blank, fiber optic and tritium. They sit close to the slide and suit shooting with iron sights only.
- Other sight sets from Night Fision and Zendl, in fiber optic and tritium.
How to zero adjustable sights
Shoot a group at a fixed distance. Move the rear sight in the direction you want the point of impact to move: to the right to move hits to the right, up to move hits up. Turn the screw a few clicks at a time and shoot again.
Fit
All sights here fit classic, MOS and ORS (gen 6) slides. Standard-height sights do not co-witness with a red dot. Tall co-witness sights do. On a MOS slide the rear sight dovetail sits further back, so some rear sights may slightly overhang the end of the slide.
Sight picture
Fiber optic collects daylight and shines brightly at the range and in competition. Tritium glows in the dark without charging. Blank sights have a plain grooved surface without any marks. Luminescent dots charge in light and glow for a while in the dark. White lines and white dots give contrast without glowing.
Installation
The rear sight sits in a dovetail. You drift the old sight out and the new one in with a sight pusher or a punch. The Glock front sight is held by a screw from the inside of the slide, so you need a front sight screwdriver. See Installation tools.
For red dot mounts, see Red dot mounts for Glock 17. For plates for the optic cut, see Optics ready plates for Glock 17 MOS [gen 4/5] and Optics ready plates for Glock 17 ORS [gen 6]. For all sights of this brand, see Sights for Glock models.
Frequently asked questions
Can I change the sights on my Glock 17 at home?
Yes, with a sight pusher or a punch. Drift the old sight out of the dovetail and push the new one in. For the front sight you need a Glock front sight screwdriver. If you do not have the tool, a gunsmith can do it for you.
Which sights should I choose for my Glock 17?
It depends on how you shoot:
- You use a red dot: tall co-witness sights.
- You shoot with iron sights only: low or standard-height sights.
- You want to zero for your ammunition or shoot competition: adjustable sights.
- You only want a brighter front sight: a single front sight.
Do these sights fit both the classic and the Optics Ready variant?
Yes. If you shoot without a red dot, any of them will work. With a red dot, choose the tall co-witness sights so you can see them through the optic.
Do I get both the front and the rear sight?
Yes, unless the title says "front sight" or "rear sight". Then you get only that part.
