Running a suppressor or a micro red dot on your slim-frame Glock creates one problem: your factory sights disappear behind the can or sit too low to use with the optic. Trijicon built these Suppressor/Optic Height Sights to fix exactly that. The taller profile clears a suppressor and gives you a usable sight picture right through or alongside a pistol-mounted red dot, so you always have something to aim with. This particular set uses a black front sight with a green tritium lamp paired to a plain metal rear, keeping the front dot as the star of the show for a clean, fast pickup.
The tritium is the heart of this system. It's a phosphor-filled glass lamp that glows on its own with no batteries and no charging, so the front dot stays lit in a pitch-black room or a dim hallway. Trijicon protects that lamp inside an aluminum housing capped with a sapphire jewel window, then cushions the whole assembly with silicone rubber so it survives round after round of recoil. The front tritium carries a 12-year illumination warranty, which tells you how long Trijicon expects that glow to hold up.
These are cut for the Glock 42, 43, 43X, 43E, and 48, and the design is set up to work with the RMRcc mounting plate if you're pairing them with a red dot. The black-out rear keeps your eye locked on that single green front dot, which a lot of folks prefer for defensive shooting where speed matters more than a busy three-dot picture. Trijicon recommends professional installation, and that's good advice here since driving pistol sights without the right pusher can mar the slide or damage the tritium.
Bottom line, this is a durable, no-nonsense upgrade that keeps your irons relevant whether you're shooting suppressed, running an optic, or want a dependable set of night sights that never need a battery.
No, this specific set (GL243-C-601145) is a single-dot configuration. It pairs a black front sight with a green tritium lamp and a plain metal rear with no illumination. That setup keeps your focus on the glowing front dot for a fast, uncluttered sight picture.
That's the whole idea behind the suppressor/optic height. They sit tall enough to give you a usable sight picture through or alongside a pistol-mounted red dot, so they double as backup irons if the optic goes down. Trijicon notes the set is designed to work with the RMRcc mounting plate.
Not at all. The green glow comes from a tritium phosphor lamp that self-illuminates with no batteries and no light exposure required. The front lamp carries a 12-year illumination warranty.
Trijicon recommends professional installation, and it's smart advice. Pistol sights are pressed into a dovetail under real tension, and without the correct sight pusher you can scratch the slide or crack the tritium lamp. A gunsmith can get them seated and zeroed quickly.
