TruGlo Tritium Night Sight Set for Smith & Wesson M&P, TG231MP

Good and bright! Very impressed.

If you are like me and felt the factory sights on the Shield lacked these are the sights for you. I own several pews and have replaced every factory sight to a high quality night sight or fiber optic. That was the case except for the Shield. I mostly left it alone because overall they weren't terrible. I didn't want to spend over $100 on sights just for a "small" upgrade. These TruGlo's are very well priced so I bit the "bullet" and bought them. As soon as I opened the package I was very pleased with the quality. High quality steel sights with a bright tritium tube surrounded by a white ring. The green tritium provide self illumination for low light environments, and the white rings provide the classic 3 dot sight you're used to in the day light. Removing the factory sights are a chore and would suggest it being done by an armorer (which I am). Installing these are easily done, and will leave no visible installation marks if the proper pusher tool is used. Using a punch will get it done but you risk breaking the glass tubes that hold the Tritium gasses. Nonetheless, these are great sights for a really good price. STRONGLY suggest these TruGlo's for your M&P handPews.

I installed these on my S&W Shield to replace the factory sights. Installation was simple and straightforward. I have installed quite a few sights and also have the sight installation tool which makes the job much easier. Economically, I am quite happy with the way they look and fit. You really cannot tell the difference between these sight on the original one that came with the Shield. I have included a photo of the sights. Not easy to align them in a pitched dark room with the left hand while holding the camera with your right. In any case, you get the picture. For the price and function. Do I recommend these, yesssss!

I bought two sets of these, one for a M&P40c and one for a SWD40VE. They fit perfectly on both. You will need a slide pusher or a smith to install them. Using a punch will potentially rupture the tritium capsule. Daytime and Nighttime sight picture and acquisition is great. Great value on these as well!

this is a great set of tritium sights for less than $60. comes with the two sights but you will also need a small allen wrench to remove the rear sight. A thing to remember if you are going for a DIY project on an m&p: there is a small ring/plunger/spring that sits up underneath the rear sight (the sear safety?). taking this off is no issue (as is usually the case), but putting it back together is a bit trickier since the plunger needs to be down in its hole with the spring compressed under it, and the small steel ring has to sit centered on the spring and held in place by the sight above it. there is a tool available to keep this compressed as the sight is slid on, but if you dont have this part then the reassembly requires an amount of patience directly proportional to the size of your hands. be prepared to hold your tongue just right. knowledge of curse words in foreign languages can also help. anyways, I put these sights on my full size m&p 9mm and both front and back were very tight. I tried to adjust mine after the initial install to adjust point of aim, but I no longer had access to a sight tool. I used a brass punch. now I have a lovely brass accent on the left side of my rear sight. I would suggest avoiding a punch at all costs. both front and back are tight...and you risk breaking the tritium vial inside the sight, which would render then "unglowing". As for mine, after 2 or 3 range sessions of 100rds per outing neither has moved. the reason for the 4 stars is that point of impact vs point of aim has moved down by about 3-4 inches at about 10yds. fairly significant. accuracy is still ok as the setup still allows good, tight groups. I believe that the truglo front sight is taller than the stock blade.

Makes a huge difference. The white is much more visible in daylight- bright glow by night.

WARNING - PICTURE IS DECEPTIVE... AND ZERO RETURNS OR EXCHANGES ALLOWED I'm sure this sight would have been fine as I have friends and family that have TruGlo optics installed, unfortunately for me, this was not the optics I had intended on purchasing. The picture in this listing shows green dots on the optics. They are not green, they are white... and glow green at night. I hate the white dots on my current optics. Thats why I wanted to upgrade. The optics I actually wanted are 2x the price of these. Amazon would not let me return or exchange this item. I even emailed TruGlo and asked if I could give them MORE money and exchange the one I bought my mistake. No dice. Buyer beware. Make sure you are getting the item you actually want.

This item *WILL* fit on SD9VE. I have the MGW Sight Pusher and experienced zero challenges installing these. These are exceptionally bright - They're actually the brightest of all the tritium NS I've installed on any of my handguns. You will need a sight pusher for these if you own a S&W Shield - Don't attempt it without, or pay the gunsmith to do it for you instead. It isn't worth ruining the finish on your gun or the sights themselves. Once on the pistol however, it is totally worth the price. If you want to save some money vs purchasing from the bigger name competitors and still have an excellent product, I think these are the way to go.
