I just recently bought my Shield 9 after looking for the past two months at a local gunshop. I have only put 100 rounds through it so far but as stated good accuracy for the size of the pistol with no failures at all. I have to agree about the trigger pull being a little harder than I like and I plan on upgrading it when the funds are available. I had Trijicon HD night sights put on it today ( Model SA1370 ) The gun smith said he thought they would not work thought they would be to wide but I said go ahead and everyone in the store wanted to check them out they were installed. If you hit the front sight with a flashlight the orange glows in the dark.

I put the same sight on my Shield, and I think we both made good choice in sights, also have the same on my Compact.

Looks good. I have Ameriglo i-Dot Pros (almost identical to Trijicon HD's) on my other weapons.
 
Are the Trijicon HD Night Sights and the Ameriglo Pro Glo basically the same night sights? I've looked at some models of Trijicon HD's and some models of the Aneriglo's and some of them seem to be exactly the same Night Sights.

The front sight is for all practical purposes identical. Amerilglo uses Trijicon inserts as well. Not sure on the M&P line of sights ...but for Glocks they offer choices for the type of rear sight you want (i-dot, operator, hack, etc).
 
Nice setup OP! I have the Trijicon HD sights on my Glock G17 Gen4 and love them. My Shield 9mm has TFOs as it was a toss up for me between the two. Either sight gives a great sight picture...
 
Shot 100 rounds through it today with the new sights and I did not notice any change in impact and still getting 2.5" groups at 7 yards. It was actually easier and faster to get a good sight picture. I will post some new pics with targets in a couple weeks.

I'm surprised that S&W doesn't offer these excellent night sights right from the factory. They do on all the other M&Ps so perhaps it's only a matter of time before they do.
 
I just sent my slide in to xd-hs2000 to install these sights and coat the slide. Looks really good!
 
Hi,
New to the forums.
I just ordered the trijicon hd sights for my Shield. The store generally puts sights on guns but referred me out to a gunsmith for the installation. Is there something tricky about the installation? I have a local gunsmith but would be willing to ship my slide to their recommended guy if it's something unusual.

Thanks in advance.

Very tight. You will need a padded vice and rubber mallet. I had a friend from ATEi. I love mine and have had them since last May.

How acurate are these compaired to the factory S&W sights? Also are these like a combo big dot/night sights? They look really good and kinda best of both worlds.
