Glock 34 sights

[Glock22]

Which is most common at USPSA matches- fiber optic front or plain front sights?
I've read where some prefer plain but I can see where the fiber optic would be quicker
to locate. Thanks

You have the right gun to experiment with, very very easy install, and I think Dawson still has free shipping with coupon code word "Rudolph" .

I think f.o. is more common but that is just a guess .

Fiber allows you to track the front sight easier at speed. However some people think it's a red dot and pull the trigger when they see red. This works on close targets but add some distance and it will leave you with a lot of misses. So if you can remain disciplined enough to properly align the sights when required, I don't think there is any downside to having the fiber.

Another consideration is front sight width, which is arguably more important than the fiber. Wide front sights which don't allow much daylight on the sides are hard to shoot at speed.

What? I have been doing it wrong this whole time!

Seriously though OP, Get the Dawsons, or Taran Tacticals. With edge going to Tarans...

You want the black rear and FO front.

I wanted the Taran sights but I just learned that they won't work on the MOS because the front of the rear sight will be in the cut out.

I prefer the HiViz front sight with the .120 rod. Very easy to see and change the rods when they get dirty. Dawson for the rear.

Taran tactical or warren sivigny are tops for me with fiber front and all black back.

I have the warren tactical blacked out rear and fiber optic front. They are a great set of sights for about $100. I use them on my IDPA gun and so does a sheriff deputy I shoot with.

I put the Dawson Competition front and rear on my 34. I really like them. The front sight is easier to pick up now. If you break the tube, it takes about 2 minutes to change. A friend of mine put the Dawson fiber optic on the front and blacked out the rear sight using a sharpie(sp?) on his G19. Seems to work fine.

Also using warren/sevigny w. Fiber. Only gripe is rear notch is a little wide for my taste.

I like having fiber. Inertia is one reason (what I'm used to). Another is sometimes, like at Fort Wayne in the mornings when you're shooting into the sun, all I can see is that little red dot... Most of the time I try to ignore the fiber other than to get my eye to the FS eg on the draw or after a reload.

Warren/Sevigny FO in front and solid black rear sight.

 

[Glock22]

What I've found is Dawson makes a sight for the MOS, co witness and non co witness. Or I could get a Taran or warren and not put a optic on it.

My favorite sight set up for my G34 is a Heinie Slant Pro all black rear and a Hi Viz fiber optic front, the taller of the ones available. That set up puts the round hitting right about where that big f/o dot is.
