The XD can be ordered with this option, and it's cheaper (and easier) to order it with the Trijicon sights than to install 'em yerself.<BR/><BR/>Here's a puzzle for ya: if ya hear someone bustin' up yer living room at 2am and the lights are off, do ya wanna turn the lights on and make YERSELF a target, or do ya wanna let yer eyes get used to the dark and use a set of glowing-just-enuf dots to aim with?<BR/><BR/>And, if yer at a range inside a building where some barstard with bad aim or a limp wrist shot up the lights, don't ya wanna be able to use a set of glowing-just-enuf dots to aim with -- and poke holes into the bull?<BR/><BR/>The point is to hit what yer pointin' at. But to point at whatcha wanna hit, ya gotta know where the sights are pointin'. THAT'S when you let off a round.. or a few rounds... or the entire clip.<BR/><BR/>Trijicon Night Sights. Highly recommended.<BR/><BR/>Heck, the Springfield Armory XD 9mm Service Model 4" - VERY highly recommended too.Eaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14471264704254326723noreply@blogger.com
