Description

AmeriGlo took what they learned building sights for U.S. Federal Government contracts and rolled it into the Trooper set. The result is a classic three-dot night sight package that gives you an instant sight picture and the kind of accuracy you can lean on whether the sun's up or it's pitch black. The front is a ProGlo blade with a green tritium lamp wrapped in a bright orange outline, and the rear is a subdued black serrated square notch carrying green tritium with a black outline. That combo does two things well: the orange front pops off any background in daylight, and the blacked-out serrated rear kills glare so your eye naturally stays locked on the front sight.

What the Trooper Set Brings to Your Glock

Tritium means these glow on their own with no charging or batteries, so you get a usable sight picture in total darkness. There's also LumiGreen paint in the mix that soaks up light and stays lit for a good ten minutes after exposure, giving you a little extra edge in dim rooms and low light. The steel construction holds zero and shrugs off holster wear far better than the polymer factory sights most Glocks ship with.

Fitment for the GL-818

This GL-818 set is cut for Gen 5 Glocks in 9mm and .40, and it works on both standard and MOS slides. That covers popular models like the Glock 17, 19, 19X, 26, 34, and 45. If you're running a Gen 5 pistol and want a proven duty-style upgrade, this is the set to grab.

Installation is straightforward with the right tools. The rear drifts into the dovetail and the front secures with a sight screw, and plenty of owners knock it out at home with a sight pusher or a punch and a steady hand. Once they're on, you've got a rugged, high-visibility setup that carries and shoots as well as it looks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the AmeriGlo Trooper GL-818 fit my Glock?

This set is built for Gen 5 Glocks chambered in 9mm and .40, and it fits both standard and MOS slides. That includes common models like the 17, 19, 19X, 26, 34, and 45. If your pistol is a Gen 5 in those calibers, you're good to go.

Do the Trooper sights need batteries or charging?

No. The green tritium lamps glow on their own around the clock with nothing to charge or replace. There's also LumiGreen paint on the front that stays lit for about ten minutes after soaking up light, adding a little extra brightness in dim conditions.

Why is the front dot orange and the rear black?

The bright orange outline on the front makes it jump out against any background in daylight so your eye finds it fast. The rear is a subdued black serrated notch on purpose, since it cuts glare and pushes your focus onto the front sight where it belongs. It's a proven setup for both defensive use and range work.

Can I install the Trooper set myself?

Plenty of owners do. The rear sight drifts into the dovetail and the front secures with a sight screw, so with a sight pusher or a punch and brass rod you can handle it at home. If you'd rather not risk marring the slide, any gunsmith can knock it out quickly.
