Default Replacing w/night sights Green or Orange?

Replacing the sights on my Shield .45 with Ameriglo. Can't make up my mind on which is better Green or Orange will be an I dot sight with Green rear.
What is your preference and why? Leaning toward Green.

I like green, but that's just me.

My old eyes prefer the Amerigo I-Dot w/LimeGreen front outline. Very quick acquisition and easy too see in the bright sun.

FWIW, I like the Ameriglo sights that came on my Glock 26.5. It has two green dots in the rear and orange around green in the front.

I found when I had my fiber optic sights I liked blacked out rear and red front. I tried both green and red and preferred the red, it stuck out the most with backgrounds I encountered. I have trijicon bright and tough on both my guns in green but if I had a choice or decide to change, id go red or orange out front.

I like green as well. It's like a GO color.

I have the Ameriglos on my 19.5 and I LOVE them. My vote is orange.
