I’m a longtime fan of night sights for handguns that may be called into service at night. I find it comforting to be able to catch a quick visual reference of sight alignment even in total darkness. I purchased my first set of night sights back in the 1990’s and had them installed on my first concealed carry handgun. Since then I’ve added, or purchased with factory installed, night sights to most of my night stand and concealed carry handguns.

In comparison, fiber optic sights are still relatively new to me. I never intentionally purchased fiber optic replacement sights. They just started showing up as factory installed front sights on new handgun models. Specifically the Springfield XDs and Ruger Mark III Hunter in my case. For those that subscribe to front sight focused shooting, a fiber optic front sight will really draw your attention as it lights up in bright conditions. Unfortunately in low/no light conditions, a fiber optic sight offers no visibility advantage over a traditional white dot sight.
