XS R3D 2.0 Sights on BG 2.0 Rock!

[GnarlsR2]

I've decided to send the XS sights back. The 2.0 is really a point and shoot pistol. I decided not to pay $100 for the XS sights and another $65 to install. I'm fine with the stock sights at the range.
I'd rather go with the $165 toward another 2.0 when prices come down. One to carry and one for the range.

For now I'm staying the factory sights. I have drifted the front to correct for the POA/POI. It's very close to right on. I'll be at the range on Wednesday and do a couple longer distances up to 25 yards. I agree with spending the money on another BG2 - one for my RAT (Reliable And Trustworthy) carry and one for range/training/practice. For defense carry firearms I prefer they not see more than 2500 rounds. For my range/fun guns... I don't care how many rounds they see.

I have 5 other handguns in 9mm and 380 (Glock42, Glock26, P365, P365X, P365-380, LCP Max) with no doubles. I would buy a second 2.0 because I love the damn thing.

The original sights aren't bad at all. I just like the larger front dot vs. the factory one. The rear are nice however the width of the rear XS sights limits the amount of drift you can accomplish with them vs. the originals.

I've gotten the POA/POI close but the rear is definitely noticable to the right. I've debated possibly removing the XS rear and going back to the rear original to get a little more drift. Maybe for my eye sight and shooting ability the XS front large dot and original rear will get it even closer.

But for 5-7 yards it's just fine.

I hate orange front sights, blacked-out rear sights and the 2.0's wide opening. Now I'm on the fence about keeping the XS sights or not.

Tough call, but they do have a green option at the front too.

I caved and went with the green sights, which are being installed this week.
