Default Replace sights on 9mm Shield
What are my options for new sights? I like FO on my 1911 a lot. Am concerned about sights that may get hung up on the shield as my EDC gun though.

Can't speak for the Shield, but I love the TruGlo TFX on my G26

TRUEGLO TFX are on my Shield 45 ACP, night sights and fiber optics. No hangup here.

Also Tru-Glow on my shield 9mm. Made a world of difference. Had local gun shop install $25. Was worth every penny from what others have said about installing them. The fiber optic in any light stand out well but non snag by design and not visible from the front of the weapon. Well worth the investment to me.

A couple of years ago I had XS Sights installed on my Shield .40. I love them. They re excellent during the night and low light times, are good during the day allowing fast acquisition of the targets. They do not interfere or snag during a draw or reholstering.

I replaced the OEM metal front sight on all four of my Shield 9 and 40 pistols with the HiViz SW2014 sight.

It is an excellent eye catcher and fits low enough on the front of the slide to not catch or hinder removal pf the pistol from a holster.
