.40 S&W is sort of an orphan in IDPA, as you don't get a scoring benefit from the additional "power" compared to 9mm, but you still have to contend with the additional recoil. Beretta 96 would be legal for use in Stock Service Pistol or Enhanced Service Pistol divisions. Myself, and most people that I know who change their sights from whatever is offered by the factory, are using plain black notch rears, and narrow fiber-optic fronts. Multiple dots, squares, colors, etc. are the worst, and factory front sights are almost always too wide.
