The half life of these sights is 12.5 years. So in ten years when you can't see a glow anymore, will S & W still be able to replace them with original sight parts?

You can replace them yourself. They are simply held in place by a pin. Knock the pin out pull out the front sight blade and replace it with a new one. Then put the pin back in it and you are good to go...
