Exactly what I was looking for.

For what might be unorthodox for some, I installed these sights on a detachable AR mil-spec carry handle/rear sight and a folding front sight on the 1913 rail on a IWI TS12 shotgun. I wanted self illuminated, non battery dependent sights that would be quick to pick up at night for home defense but would also be effective as 50 to 100 yard sights during daylight for 12 gauge slugs. I have used them in various ARs for many years and they never failed. They installed without any issues. Be sure to fully read the installation instructions. They adjust a little differently than the standard sights.

Pleased as always

Used for Police Patrol Rifles

I have purchased several of these for patrol rifle builds for the officers in my squad that I supervise They are used as backup sights for optics They are high quality and inexpensive

Just bright enough to see

Just bright enough to see at night , but not too bright . Just what I wanted . I only bought the front post to use on my Sub 2000 . Had to modify the factory pin to work . I like it .

Works as Advertised

I first installed this sight on my work rifle a few years back. Perfect for the application. Just enough glow to find your front sight, but not too much to give you away. Its taken a beating over the years, but its definitely held up. This purchase is for my BUIS on my personal rifle. The price is right for a little added insurance in case I have to revert back to manual mode. Fits just fine and easy to install in the flip up sight.
