Hackathorn Glock sights?

Anyone tried these yet? They look perfect. Serrated black rear, trite front with orange ring.

Link? My Google-fu didn’t return any hits.

Ameriglo makes them.

This thread is relevant to my interests.

Another front sight option that I really like:

Hey re-size that pic Katar! :smiley:

Will these be available for a G21? I just purchased one and have not decided on sights yet. Was leaning toward Warren or Heiney but this seems to have the best of both. Where can you get them?

Those are not the sights that I saw on his Glock. Obviously he has multiple pistols, (or this could just be marketing by Ameriglo), but the ones that I have seen him use were a completely orange, large, square front sight (similar to the picture posted by The Katar, minus the tritium). The rear sight was similar, but not serrated and had a .200 wide notch.

If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have sworn it was Heinie.

I believe these are the sights Ken was talking to me about up at USTC in Feb. Looks more interesting than having the entire front sight painted a bright color (that has caused me more issues than no paint has).

Ditto.

That’s a big notch on the rear sight!

I have been meaning to order one of these and a matching rear for months and keep forgetting. I had an email from them with the model number of the front and corresponding rear and now can’t seem to find it, and they only take orders over the phone which always presents an issue for me as I have a hard time breaking away for calls during the day.

ETA:
If someone knows of an online retailer that takes web orders & sells the above sight with the correct matches rear (all black) please post up a link for me.

ETA2: Looks like they have online ordering now, but I don’t know which rear to pair with this front. Which, as I now recall, was the crux of the issue before and why I needed to call to order. I wanted an Operator rear without tritium and they don’t list it on the site that I can find. The front is listed as
GL-212-OR All Glock Models (standard stock height) H=0.165 W=0.140 ProGlo ORANGE / SQUARE / / / GREEN / TRITIUM $50.00

OK, I think I got it figured out
Front
GL-212-OR
Height: 0.165
Width: 0.140
Style: ProGlo
Color: Orange Square + Green Tritium

Rear
GC-65R-180
Height: 0.256
Width: 0.180
Style: N/A
Color: FLAT / BLACK

Alternate Rear
GL-405P
Height: 0.256
Width: 0.180
Style: Pro
Color: FLAT / BLACK

Looks like the Hackathorn set uses that second “Pro” rear sight. Anyone done any one-hand manipulations with that sight to see how well it catches on holsters and such for slide-racking?

The rear sight pictured is the GL-405P. I’m currently using that rear sight on my Glocks with a “standard” front night sight (GL-112, green tritium, white outline). I really like the setup, it’s faster for me than the more conventional Glock night sights.

I really like that Hackathorn front sight. I’d have to try that rear sight, however every other serrated rear sight I have messes with my eyes and causes me to first focus on the rear and then the front.

Are these for sale yet? Any idea on the finish on the sights?

Yes. I ordered a set today and they shipped out this afternoon. I’ll post a little review here in this thread once they arrive.

A lot of what Mr. Hackathorn was saying in class made sense to me and as much as I hate to admit it I’m getting older and my eyes aren’t as good as they used to be.

I have a harder time picking up the front sight and focusing on it. The sights I’m running now are garbage so I’m looking forward to trying these and seeing if they make a difference.

I think I’ll install them on my G26, or maybe my backup G19.

Here’s a couple of updated pics from the Ameriglo website:

The first one, the Hackathorn, looks like it’s a green dot in an orange field, while the second is a tritium dot in an orange field, no?
