OK....about a year ago I replaced the sights on my wifes Taurus PT 908 9mm with a set of nice tritium night sites; I went back a few days ago to the same gunsmith to have the same work done on my XD .40, he informed me that no one made tritium replacement sites for my pistol.

I find this VERY hard to believe.....anyone have any ideas????:question:

Thanks ....I had Meprolights placed on my wifes 9mm; may have confused him and caused him to believe I wanted the same brand on my XD.

Found the website, appreciate it.

Well, off the top of my head, TruGlo, Trijicon, Heine and Meprolight all make tritium and/or tritium/fiber optic sights for the XDs, some of them several choices. I'm sure there are others. Dawson makes fiber optic for them but I don't know if they have tritium sights for the XDs.

ETA: Big Dot also makes a tritium sight for XDs.

Take a look at TruGlow Fiber Optic Night Sights. They are what I have on my XD. They are excellent they glow in the day time and at night bright clear sights indoors or out in ALL lighting condition
