Default Pro 9 Core - Tall tritium sights + threaded barrel?

Hi everyone!

I own a FNX45 Tactical, and I love the concept.
Now I want a 9mm with the same Setup.
So far I've only come across the Pro 9 CORE that is premilled for a Reflex sight.

What I Need to suit it to my Needs are tall Tritium sights and a threaded Barrel for my suppressor, if those can't be found I'd have to pass on the Pro 9.

Any idea of those exist, or where to get them?
Are there any known issues with the Pro 9 Core so far that would make it unsuitable for a carry pistol?

Thanks a lot!

Pretty sure there are guys running threaded barrels, but with the sights you'll have to be patient. I don't think there is currently a solution, I've searched and asked, no answer. Without a doubt there will be sights in the very near future though. I wouldn't let that stop you from buying a CORE!

Dawson Precision seems to have tritium sights in store for the core, we'll see if that's true...

I installed a Dawson Fiber front sight, and its .305 tall. Not sure how you measure the back sight height. The short dovetail width and placement closer to the end of the slide makes it non-compatible with other M&P sights.

All I need is a front sight anyway, although I'd prefer blacked out rears. A tritium front sight will help me index the red dot in very low light situations.

Try Warren Tactical sights. I believe he has different sized sights for the M&P's.

I purchased the tritium.

Rear sights are fine, front partially blocked but still work.

MKE.guns,

Do you have a rear view photo of the Dawson suppressor sights on your M&P with your suppressor attached. I would love to see what the sight picture looks like with the suppressor attached. I am looking at getting these sights for my M&P 9 + Rugged Obsidian setup....

Many thanks...

dcashel,

I have tried taking pics with my iPhone 6 from the rear but no luck. You cannot see the suppressor lines up with the sights.

So I have attach what I did get. I also included a side view.

I hope this helps.

Thanks. Appreciate the photos. It looks like the suppressor blocks about 1/2 of the dot on your front sight, is this true? Looks like Dawson could have made the front sight just a little bit taller.

At least 1/2 if not more. If the front sight were taller so the rear would have to be as well to keep everything lined up.

I use the RMR exclusively. Same with EDC on my 9C.
