Looking to get some new sights for my Shield.. I like the Ameriglo SW-245 I-dot pros.. Does anyone have these sights on their pistol ?? Would appreciate any feedback.. Thanks !!

I don't have the I dots but I do have a set of Ameriglo's on my shield that are great. 3 dot night sight system, high viz orange around front dot. Heckuva set of sights. Can't go wrong with Ameriglo. Just keep in mind that the "dot the I" sights take some getting used to if you haven't practiced with them before. I had XS big dots at one point that I just couldn't warm up to.
 
If you know you like i-dots I would hesitate on the Ameriglos. The fit/finish suits the Shield better than the stock sights. I have the ProGlo Operator 3 dot but this should give you an idea:

Williams Fire sights are an option if absolute darkness isn't your normal forte. Tritium sights have a shelf life(usually 5-6 years). Double that life for about four times the cost(mil spec). Light gathering types last a lot longer with a bit of care. Bout half the price also.
 
My son and i both have them on our shields and love them. easy to pick up and align.
