I put Trijicon ghost ring sights on my Glocks. The 2 main reasons are;

1. Glock standard sights are plastic. During one handed immediate action drills, when using a magazine in a vest pouch for slide manipulation these stock plastic sights will get twisted, broken, or deformed. When in a time is life situation this means a very bad day.

2. Ghost rings improve target aquisition for CQB and give a slight advantage in speed, all other things being equal.

Trijicon GRS are steel and can be used to manipulate the weapon in one handed drills with zest and vigor with no fear of destroying them. Since they are Trijicon they also contain tritium gas lamps in both the front sight post and on both sides of the rear ring for target aquisition in low or no light situations.




As you can see they allow the eye to focus through the ring and aquire the front sight pretty quickly....
