M&P Shield Night Sight Help

[MTFisher93]

I have recently purchased an M&P Shield 9mm and I am trying to find Fiber Optic Night sights for it and I am having a great deal of difficulty. Is there anyone that has sights for a Shield that work well?
Thanks,
Mike

Fiber Optics amplify existing light. Therefore are only good in low light situations.

I think you may want glow sites. Such as Trijicon.

If you use it for your EDC I really like XS Big Dots, and I'm pretty sure that they make them for the Shield.

Order yourself a set of Trijicon night sights for it. My S&W 1911 came with them as standard equipment, they are incredible.

the problem is Trijicon does not make a set for the shield. The normal M&P sights will not fit a shield because the slide is thinner on the Shield. the XS does make one for the Shield but I'm not sure if i would like that type of sight.

Oh also I carry the Shield so it is a protection gun/Fun gun. so a multipurpose sight would be great.

I have the Ameriglo TFO night sights on my shield. They work great. They are half the price of the Tijicon HD's. They are made for a normal M&P but they went on without a problem. There is a slight 1mm overhang on the rear sight but nothing that would a problem. A fellow INGO member AllenM installed mine.

I have to correct myself they are TruGlo TFO sights. They are $89 shipped from Amazon.com
