HarvDog Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 I don't know very much about sights. Can someone break down the different sights available on a SA XD 40? I looking for what the sights look like, what the differences/benefits are, etc. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Xen Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 Re: Factory Sights on a SA XD eesh, thats kind of a tall request. i'm not the best source of information on the subject, but i know that springfield offers about 10 different types of sights for the XD. From basic all the way up to $225 Bomar sights. They do have precise competition sights that are like a ghost ring type sight, most of it depends on what you plan on doing with your gun. you can get adjustable sights, night sights, fiber optic, etc etc. my advice: target gun: (precise, slow shooting) match sights, around $150 concealed gun: (could be day-time, could be night) Trijicon 3 dot night sights, around $95 generic gun: (take it to the range every other month and shoot a box) leave it with basic sights you can also put most glock sights on the XD, you don't have to look for brand new XD sights. ****, i think you can even pick up a sight pusher for around $50.

HarvDog Posted February 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 Re: Factory Sights on a SA XD Good info Xen. BTW, I wasn't asking about ALL of the available sights just the three listed on their website; standard three dot, Trijicon®, and Heinie Tritium Slant Pro TM. Nevertheless, this was excellent information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangunnr Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 Re: Factory Sights on a SA XD The Richard Heinie sights will be the sleekest of the sights they offer. For a carry gun they are to be considered some of the best. hangunnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearcat Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 Re: Factory Sights on a SA XD The slide on the Springfield XD's have the same dimensions as the Sig Sauer P226. According to Springfield, any sight that will fit the Sig Sauer slide will also fit the XD slide. I plan on replacing the fixed sights on my Springfield XD in .357 Sig. with some good Adjustable sights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
