I haven't used them, they look a little bulky to me.
I do use these though.

Since I've never heard of them, I guess I can say no, I don't use 'em. 
Got pics, or a link?

Don't look. It'll hurt your eyes.

What are the advantages of Dead Ringer’s Snake Eyes pistol sights? When faced with self-defense or close quarters situations, it is paramount that one be able to acquire the target as quickly as possible.

Umm... Who would bother trying to use sights in a close quarters SD situation??
One positive for them though...
They would definitely make one handed racking of the slide (behind the knee, boot heel, or belt) VERY Easy. LOL

BT are those Trijicons? I'd still like to hear who made those sights though BT.
Added ..nope not any of the Trijicons I found on their factory web site... I answered several questions there though... they do not make their night sights as replacement rear sight assemblies or just rear sight blades for S&W K frames, L frames, N frames or X frame revolvers.... or at least they do not list any on their various sights & applications. What a shame...

Looks way to busy IMO. Like Robz said, I'll likely not even be using 2 hands in a close quarters sd situation choosing to shoot from retention let alone try aiming down the sights.

That's why after evaluating all the choices, went with Truglo TFX HD sights--and very happy with the results both in daylight and at night. In my opinion, they are slicker than owl 'stuff.
Oh, to bring it back on topic, I agree with RobzGuns...those snake eyes are hideous, a little tough to see how they belong on a SD/CCW
