Interesting. Thanks for the heads up and the link.

Color me interested.

I like how there are no sharp edges. All of the edges looks radiused and smooth.

[WickedWillis]

They do look extremely nice and well machined, I am interested in seeing the front now though.

Looks like LAV took a cue from Warren and trimmed the sides of their rear sight. I have the Warrens and love them. Looking forward to playing with one of these.

Agreed. I have Warrens on my 17 and standard trijicon on my 26. I like the Warrens much better. I wonder when the Vickers will be available?

[brushy_bill]

I hope they offer a brass bead front sight option.

[Aaron_B]

I wonder if they are actually going to make some kind of set. This is from LAV in the SME section referring to aftermarket sights.

@Larry_Vickers

I run a Trijicon HD yellow/green front sight with a Warren rear currently - that is about to change however because I am finalizing a Glock rear sight with Wilson Combat ; it will be a Vickers Glock item and is an adaptation of their excellent Battlesight as used on the 1911’s they sell

I like the Battlesight a lot and approached them about doing a version for the Glock ; we have been working on it for awhile and it is almost ready

When that hits I will switch to that sight on all my Glock’s but retain the Trijicon HD front sight

Hope this helps

From the OP’s link, LAV states, “We are looking at different front sight options as well as a plain black rear”. I took that to mean a set, but from the info you posted, perhaps not.

Whats the point of trimming the edges??
Thanks

[Watrdawg]

Definitely interested. Running standard Glock nite sights now on my G19 and very well could be swapping with LAV’s when they come out.

Rear Sight

• Melonite treated Carbon Steel
• Recessed U Notched
• Single dim tritium vial

Front Sight

• Bright tritium front vial

^ Am I missing anything here?

IWB/CCW treatment and possibly something to do with “pulling” your eyes to the notch/front post.

My guess at least…

[newyork]

Looks like a great sight option for Glocks. Congrats LAV.

[brickboy240]

Wow…am I glad I dragged my feet, getting replacement sights on my 3rd gen G19.

Now…what front sight would be best with that rear? Will there be a Vickers front sight, too?

[okie_john]

There are a lot of very good things about that sight, like the fact that you could probably park a truck on it and not lose your zero.

LAV, if you’re reading this, can we also get front sights in various heights for guns that don’t regulate with stock sight sets? I’ve got one like that…

Thanks,

Okie John

[Dos_Cylindros]

The fact that LAV seems to indicate that this rear sight will be compatable with the Trijicon HD front sight has me very interested. I am running the HD’s on my Glock 23 right now and love them. I will probably pick one of these up when they become available. Great idea Wilson and LAV.

[RalphK1]

Looking forward to getting a set…got RB1’s which I love but these intrigue me.
